Act 1; Scene 2

• The scene opens with Alma meeting with the doctor.
• She admits she has had a proposal and doesn't deny being in love. She was proposed to by her Sunday School superintendent who also plays the French horn-Roget Doremus from the last scene! I did not see that coming.
  
• QUICK PREDICTION: I predict that Alma will have to chose between the proposal from Roger and a relationship with John. I have a feeling Alma is going to fall in love with John. They seem to have a nice chemistry, even though he makes her nervous. I bet everyone makes Alma nervous. I don't think Alma loves Roger. He is "nice" and she considers him her last chance at marriage, so she plans to settle. I don't think she will, though.
  
• The doctor clearly doesn't think Alma should marry Roger. He avoids saying how he really feels about Roger.
  
• Alma admits she doesn't love Roger and that she can't imagine herself in bed with him!
  
• The doctor encourages Alma to decide how much a physical relationship with a man matters to her.
  
• Alma clearly does not see Roger in a passionate light.
  
• Suddenly Alma remembers the date she had planned with John. The doctor encourages her to stay away from John. Even though the doctor is John's dad, he doesn't seem to think too highly of John.
  
• The relationship between the doctor and Alma is very sweet. Father-daughter like. I get the feelings that Alma's father isn't part of her life anymore for whatever reason. Maybe I'll find that out later.
• I like the play so far! I hope it has a happier ending than The Glass Menagerie. I'd like to see things work out for Alma.
