[discussing their daughter]
Eduardo Acuña: Maria is going to wait until the right man comes along.
Mrs. Delfina Acuña: Why should she? I didn't.
Leonora Fiske: Ellen, you're a hypocrite! You're worse! You're a cheat! You meant to foist your wretched brood upon me and bleed me white! And when I saw through your little scheme, you had the insolence to turn on me and abuse me! But you've chosen the wrong woman! You get those sisters of yours out of the house at once! And you take a month's wages and go with them.
Capt. Michael Stuart: But, Teresa is to be my bride!
Mother Superior: Teresa is now the Bride of Christ!
