          from her.  Steven comes out and invites Adrienne in.  Adrienne 
          tells Steven he should stop being a puritan and become an 
          adult.  He says he wishes it were 1690, so he could burn her

          she knew where the key was kept, over the door.  He says, "Take 
          off my boots, wench."  [This is no longer be considered 
          politically correct.]  Rodney says that man should not have 
          given women the vote.  He tells her to get his slippers.  She 
          gets them and throws them in his lap.  He tells her they go on

               Mr. Martin Peyton.  So you don't get any big ideas.  
               Right, Eddie? 
    
          MR:  You're being deliberately blind.  Knowing the 
               circumstances of his death how could you even consider
