Kearns, whose voice assumes a hurt and importunate tone, explained patiently, "You've got to understand; his feelings were so intense." Goodwin's well-used-and-gravelly Washington politics voice wasn't made for such subtlety: "He [Glikes] is trying to set himself up as a rejected suitor... He's living out his fantasy life in The New York times." Goodwin's theory in this publication scandal is that the whole thing has been cooked up against him and Doris buy a New York "literary cabal."

In the City Center production it is a little joke--some sort of Freudian slip--that only a foolish and insensitive man would make. Natasha, the wife of the sisters' brother, steals a lot of laughs in the City Center version by being so unremittingly vain and petty, but she's stealing from the sensitivity of the play...
