All About Eve Scene 3 Summary

  • Margo tells Bill she's developed a "big protective feeling" toward Eve, "a lamb loose in our big stone jungle."
  • Bill embraces Margo, who tells him not to "get stuck on some glamour puss." She's afraid he'll leave her for a younger woman.

  • He's about to kiss her when Eve interrupts with the tickets.
  • Bill thanks Eve, smooches Margo, and boards the plane.
