Padre Velasco : ls that all?
Gloria Vilalta : Isn't it enough?
Padre Velasco : What you said, just to think of it... should make you blush.
Gloria Vilalta : l am blushing. But it's the truth.
Padre Velasco : Truth colored by youthful imagination... I've known Francisco all his life. He holds no secrets from me. He's a man of faith, a perfect example for others... l speak as his confessor.
Gloria Vilalta : Padre, l swear that...
Padre Velasco : I'm not finished yet! He never knew a woman until you came along. So it's natural if you cause him resentment... You don't behave badly but...
Gloria Vilalta : But what have l done?
Padre Velasco : Nothing. Yet much. He opened his heart to me before you came. For instance... the way you danced the other night with the attorney. l mentioned it to your mother. Here's some advice...
Gloria Vilalta : Thanks, Padre, but l don't need any.

Doña Esperanza Vilalta : Gloria, let's have a little talk. Francisco has told me all that's happened since your marriage. He opened his heart to me.
Gloria Vilalta : And?
Doña Esperanza Vilalta : You ought to be more understanding!
Gloria Vilalta : What did he tell you?
Doña Esperanza Vilalta : The truth. He admitted his faults, but you have a few, too... and he understands them perfectly.
Gloria Vilalta : And the insults? The viciousness? And this?
Doña Esperanza Vilalta : Francisco is a jealous man. Sometimes he thinks you're wrong... and because he loves you so much, he tends to lose his temper.
Gloria Vilalta : He deceived you, too.
Doña Esperanza Vilalta : When a man talks with his heart, he cannot lie. Listen to a mother's advice... Be good to him, and everything will be fine again.
