Elizabeth, when that door closes, it will never open for you again!

Col. Lloyd:
What are you doing here? Elizabeth Lloyd Sherman:
Wait, Jack, let me tell him! Father, this is the man I'm going to marry. I knew you would never give your consent, so that's why we were going to elope. Jack Sherman:
I wanted to come to you, sir, and ask your permission, but? Col. Lloyd:
Silence! Why did you assume that I would object to an honorable marriage? Elizabeth Lloyd Sherman:
I know how you feel about the South. Col. Lloyd:
I hate all Yankees. Elizabeth Lloyd Sherman:
That's why we didn't come and tell you. Col. Lloyd:
Then you knew you were doing wrong! How can you marry a man who represents everything that a true Southerner should hate? A man who fought against your father, your brother, and all your kinfolk. For all you know, he may have fired the shot that killed your brother! Jack Sherman:
I was in the war, sir, and though I fought on the other side, the South has always had my admiration and respect. My mother was a Virginian. But might I remind you, sir, that the war has been over for some time. Col. Lloyd:
The war will never be over for me and mine, sir. I want to kill you. I don't know but what I will. Elizabeth, go to your room. Elizabeth Lloyd Sherman:
No. Col. Lloyd:
Go to your room, I tell you! Elizabeth Lloyd Sherman:
I'm going with Jack! Col. Lloyd:
Elizabeth, when that door closes, it will never open for you again!
