Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Rosemary has trouble sleeping, reflecting on the way she was brought up in the discipline of work. This financial stability is what prompts her mother to permit an affair with Dick, since it cannot hurt her reputation and she would have nothing to lose except a valuable experience. So, sensing her mother’s blessing, Rosemary fantasizes about Dick until she decides to get up and walk about the hotel. It is the early morning hours.
While about the hotel, Rosemary comes across Luis Campion, crying about a private matter involving love which he does not share in detail with Rosemary. Then, Campion informs Rosemary that there is going to be a duel, since a dispute arose the previous night involving Mrs. Violet McKisco. Abe North emerges from the hotel, joins them, and after subtly insulting Campion, sits next to Rosemary and confirms that a duel is indeed about to happen.
Abe North, slightly drunk, tells Rosemary the tale of how the duel came about. While carpooling together after the Divers’ dinner party the previous night, Violet McKisco continued trying to explain what shocking thing she had witnessed inside the Divers’ villa, only to be told repeatedly by Tommy Barban to keep quiet.
