START: Lizzy: Won’t you be - (seated?)
Lady Catherine: Miss Bennet. A most distressing rumor has been brought to my attention. Your friend Mrs. Collins confided a certain scandalous falsehood to her husband - and he, Very Rightly, came straight to me. You of course know what I am speaking of. Come. Come. Do not Play Games.

END: Lady Catherine: So you would burden Fitzwilliam with your sordid family history?!
Lizzy: I must ask you to leave.
Lady Catherine: You do know that any connection you may have with Mr. Darcy would absolutely disgrace him, don’t you?! You would make him the laughingstock of the world.
Hamill, Kate, Pride and Prejudice, Dramatists Play Service, 2017.
