• Enrique Claudin : Mademoiselle, may I speak to you for a minute?

  Christine DuBois : Why, of course.

  Enrique Claudin : You weren't on the stage tonight for the third act curtain call.

  Christine DuBois : Everyone seems to notice. It's really quite flattering.

  Enrique Claudin : [Becoming concerned]  Why weren't you there?

  [Christine is puzzled] 

  Enrique Claudin : Forgive me, but I have been a part of the Opera for so long. Everybody, everything connected with it, I feel it is so much a part of my life.

  [Christine pauses, then smiles] 

  Christine DuBois : Yes, well, Monsieur Villeneuve is waiting for you.

  Enrique Claudin : You weren't ill, were you? You're not in any trouble, are you? Why it's impertinent of me, I know, but...

  [Claudin stalls, soon Christine kindly shakes his hand and smiles] 

  Christine DuBois : You're very kind. Thank you.

  [Christine starts to leave] 

  Enrique Claudin : CHRISTINE!

  [Christine turns back to Claudin in shock, Claudin soon realizes his mistake] 

  Enrique Claudin : I'm sorry. Forgive me.
