Tevye : [in song] Do you love me?
Golde : [speaking] I'm your wife!
Tevye : [speaking] I know!
[in song]
Tevye : But do you love me?
Golde : [singing] Do I love him? For twenty-five years I've lived with him, fought with him, starved with him. Twenty-five years, my bed is his...
Tevye : Shh!
Golde : [singing] If that's not love, what is?
Tevye : [singing] Then you love me!
Golde : I suppose I do!
Tevye : Oh.
[sings]
Tevye : And I suppose I love you too.
Tevye , Golde : [singing] It doesn't change a thing, but even so... After twenty-five years, it's nice to know.

Golde : Oh, you're finally here. Come, let's go home now.
Tevye : I want to see Motel's new machine.
Golde : You can see it some other time. Let's go home now.
Tevye : Quiet, woman, before I get angry! Because when I get angry, even flies don't dare to fly!
Golde : [sarcastically] I'm very frightened of you. After we finish supper I'll faint.
Tevye : [angrily] Golde, I am the head of the house! I am the head of the family! And I want to see Motel's new machine NOW!
[He looks inside then closes the door]
Tevye : Now, lets go home.

Golde : Tevye! Tevye!
Tevye : What is it?
Golde : It's Chava. She left home this morning, with Fyedka.
Tevye : What?
Golde : I've looked everywhere for her. I even went to the priest. He told me they were married.
Tevye : Married?
Golde : Yes.
Tevye : Well... Go home, Golde. We have other children at home. You have work to do, I have work to do, go home.
Golde : [anguished] But Chaveleh!
Tevye : Chava is dead to us! We'll forget her.
[gently]
Tevye : Go home. Go home, Golde.
[Golde walks away, crying]
