This is where the dancers are to meet.

Then let's wait for them. It's nice and cool out here.
human
Are you feeling better? he asked.
gpt
You were so queer in the ball-room.
human
Yes, I'm better.
gpt
Don't you think it's fun to meet your old husband again?
human
Rudolph, I don't understand how you can talk to me like that and persecute me and tease me ... after everything that has happened....
gpt
Oh, well, all that has happened and is done with!
human
Do you think it's discreet on your part ... or delicate?
gpt
No, neither discreet nor delicate. Those, you know, are things I've never been: you used to fling that in my face often enough, in the old days. But, if it's not delicate, it's amusing. Have you lost your sense of humour? It's damn jolly humorous, our meeting here.... And now listen to me. You and I are divorced. All right. That's so in the eyes of the law. But a legal divorce is a matter of law and form, for the benefit of society. As regards money affairs and so on. We've been too much husband and wife not to feel something for each other at a later meeting, such as this. Yes, yes, I know what you want to say. It's simply untrue. You have been too much in love with me and I with you for everything between us to be dead. I remember everything still. And you must do the same. Do you remember when...?
