Mary, Ruthie and others in “Suspicion”

Mary

I heard what you did tonight, and I'm really proud of you, Ruthie.

Ruthie

Yeah. Mom and Dad told me about a billion times already. Big deal.

Lucy

What you did was really amazing, so don't think that it's not. You stood up for someone who was being discriminated against because of her religion, and that's a big deal. A very big deal. The biggest!

Ruthie

Yeah, and look where it got me. Now I have to change schools.

Mary

Look, Ruthie, I know how much you like private school, and nobody would think badly of you if you don't go through with it, if you don't want to.

Ruthie

I don't want to, but I think it's something I have to do. Eleanor Roosevelt said, "It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself". I think I have to bite the bullet.
