Packet 9: Tossup 4

A character in this play says that he goes to “[his] uncle’s place… on the third floor” on his (15[1])days off before informing another character of the lack of a light-switch. After repeatedly trying to ring an electric bell, (15[1])a character in this play is told that “Florence was a tiresome little fool,” so his supposed plan of “torture by separation” would be unsuccessful. A character in this play who asks a (15[1])(*) valet “where (10[1])are the instruments (10[2])of torture?” (10[2])later (10[1])realizes that “there’s no need for red-hot pokers” (10[1])before Estelle (10[1])repeatedly stabs (10[1])Inez. For 10 points, Garcin declares (10[1])that “hell is other people” (10[2]-5[1])in what Jean-Paul Sartre play? ■END■ (0[4])
