Stranger on the Third Floor - Uncertainty About Captivity and Control
The Stranger: [suddenly grabs her arm]
They send you to take me back?
Jane: [frightened]
No. Who?
The Stranger: [cautiously looks over his shoulder]
Don't you know? The people who lock you up.
Jane:
Oh, no. Of course not.
The Stranger:
How do I know I can trust you?
Jane: [nervously]
Well, they... they, they wouldn't send a woman, would they?
The Stranger: [laughs; laughs, then continues dispassionately]
No. No, they... they wouldn't send a woman. The only person who ever was kind to me was a woman. She's dead now.
Jane:
Oh... Why? Why do they want to lock you up?
The Stranger:
Oh, so they can hurt me. They... they put you in a shirt with, uh... long sleeves and... they pour ice water on you.
