Demon Mine: A Story in Five Parts

ESTELLE: In that case, I'll stop her watching. (She picks up the knife and stabs Inez several times.) INEZ: But, you crazy creature, what do you think you're doing? You know quite well I'm dead. ESTELLE: Dead? INEZ: Dead! Dead! Dead! Knives, poison, ropes--useless. It has happened already, do you understand? Once and for all. So here we are, forever. ESTELLE: Forever. My God, how funny!
