HAMM:
Do you remember when you came here?
CLOV:
No. Too small, you told me.
HAMM:
Do you remember your father.
CLOV (wearily):
Same answer.
(Pause.)
You've asked me these questions millions of times.
HAMM:
I love the old questions.
(With fervour.)
Ah the old questions, the old answers, there's nothing like them!
(Pause.)
It was I was a father to you.
CLOV:
Yes.
(He looks at Hamm fixedly.)
You were that to me.
