by Agatha Christie

Veronica, a glamorous actress, attempts to reclaim her former lover John, demanding they leave their respective spouses to start a life together. John firmly rejects her, realizing that his brief lapse in judgment the previous night has only solidified his devotion to his wife. The scene escalates from a cold negotiation of their 'future' to a venomous threat as Veronica vows revenge for being spurned a second time.
