Three Faces of Eve

Are you feeling well these days?

I feel tired.

You feel tired? You've felt tired for some little time, haven't you?

Yes.

I see. Do you hope and expect that this will all soon be terminated?

Yes.

How do you feel about that?

I think Jane would be the one.

You feel that she will be the one?

Yes.

How do you feel, personally, about it, though?

I think it's just something that's got to be.

Do you feel--

I want to get well. And if that's the only way to get well, that's the way I want it.

Do you feel that you will be in any part of it?

No, I don't feel that way.

Does it cause you distress?

In a way. I worry about Sarah.

You feel that she may not be taken care of?

Yes.

I see. Do you regret going? Or what's your feeling about it?

No, I'm tired.

Could I speak with Eve Black, now?

Sure.

Eve Black. How do you feel?

I feel good.

Good. Why?

I don't know. I always feel good.

Did you enjoy the trip over today?

Yeah. It was disappointing, though, wasn't it?

Was it?

Yeah, you know, I thought we'd just zoom through space. And there we were, just creeping along like a little caterpillar. I didn't even feel like I was moving.

Was that your first airplane ride? How do you like all this?

I think it's real exciting.

Do you?

Don't you?

Yeah, it's very interesting.

I guess, it is interesting, in a way. I think it's more exciting than interesting.

How long have you been out?

Huh?

How long have you been out?

Do you mean in all?

Mm-hm.

Off and on, all my life.

All your life. Do you remember some things that happened in your childhood?

Yes.

Do you remember things that happened to Eve White?

Mm-hm.

I see.

I know everything that happened to us.

But you don't seem to have as much educational background. How is that?

I guess I just wasn't interested.

In what?

In getting an education. You have to study.

Well, somebody had to study.

Not really, not-- she didn't have to.

Well, she did in order to get an education, didn't she?

She wanted one, though, but I didn't.

Well, why didn't you learn as she went along?

I guess I just didn't pay any attention.

Where were you when she studied?

I don't know. Just somewhere.

You don't know where?

No.

But you always knew what was going on?

Mm-hm.

Did you have trouble coming out?

Yes.

Could I speak with Eve White, too?

Sure.

Eve White. You feel all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Could I speak with Jane?

Sure.

Jane?

It is real exciting, Dr. Thigpen.

You enjoyed the trip over?

Yes, I did.

How do you feel about the future?

I'm optimistic.

Do you think that you will be the surviving one?

I think that's difficult to say right now.

I see. Do you feel hopeful?

Yes, I'd like to live.

What do you feel about the new girl?

Well, she seems like my own, then. I've been around her quite a while.

I see. You're rather looking forward to it?

Yes.

You don't mind the responsibilities and obligation to her?

No.

Do you have any sort of future plan for yourself?

At the present, no.
