Mrs. Keogh:
Miss McAdam is leaving us. She's going to live with her sister in Manhattan. She has the best room in the house, the basement, and it has its own entrance. Now, I can only let a certain kind of girl stay there. Oh, and I'm not talking about looks here. Although I will admit, God did give Miss McAdam an advantage when I had to think about who I could trust to live down there. No, no, you're a pretty girl, Eilis, but you're sensible. So, you're having the room, and that's that. Eilis:
Will the other girls not mind? Mrs. Keogh:
Oh, I expect so. What don't they mind?
