Mary Lacey:
Eilis, what's the matter? Has something happened with Jim?
Eilis:
[crying]
Mammy, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm married. I got married in Brooklyn before I came home. I should have told you. I should have told you as soon as I got back. I want to be with him. I want to be with my husband.
Mary Lacey:
Of course. Is he nice?
Eilis:
Yes.
Mary Lacey:
He'd have to be nice if you married him. So you're going back?
Eilis:
Yes. Tomorrow.
Mary Lacey:
Are you on the early train?
[Eilis nods]
Mary Lacey:
I'm going to bed.
Eilis:
Mammy, it's not even 8:00. You don't have to.
Mary Lacey:
I'm very tired. And I'd like to say goodbye now. And only once.
[hugging]
Mary Lacey:
Perhaps you'll write and tell me about him.
Eilis:
I will.
