[_MR. and MRS. HAMILTON look at each other bewildered. Meanwhile the silence has been pierced, first by a little hysterical scream from JEAN, then the others all wake up and crowd about the happy pair, congratulating them. The women who had snubbed HELEN before cover her with kisses, for now she is fit for their embraces._
JOHN
[_to THEODORE_]
Saved! Saved! Respectable at last, thank G.o.d. [_Raising his gla.s.s and hammering for attention._] Here's to the bride and groom.
[_ALL cheer, raise gla.s.ses, and drink._
ERNEST
[_when the noise dies down. As the others kiss HELEN_]
A moment ago you were a bad woman. Now [_to all_] behold! she is a good woman. Marriage is wonderful.
[_JOHN and LUCY run to JUDGE and shake hands._
JUDGE
[_to JOHN and LUCY, his wife_]
Yes, Respectability has triumphed this time, but let Society take warning and beware! beware! beware!
