NETTIE follows the American with her eyes and shakes, her fur stands on end, eyes are wild, teeth snap.
COUNTESS MARIA (26 years old) reclines pale on a couch. There is fear on her face, eyes are half-closed
COUNTESS MARIA

Petro stares at the Countess, then at the dog, then at the door, after the gone servant.

Mr. Harry, whole stories are told about you.

HARRY
Well, what kind of?

They say, you’ve got a whole kingdom in America and you are a descendant of Montezuma.
