![]() ![]() ![]() Stanley overhears this conversation but stays silent. This bewilders Blanche, who, the next morning, disparages Stanley as a “subhuman animal.” Stella, on her part, claims that she and Stanley are fine. His wife eventually comes down and allows him to take her to bed. After getting sobered-up by his friends, Stanley recovers, and, in a line that became a hallmark in theater history, calls out Stella’s name from the courtyard. This prompts the two sisters to take refuge with the upstairs neighbor, Eunice. The multiple interruptions that take place during poker night enrage Stanley, who, in a drunk outburst, strikes Stella. Mitch, in return, is charmed by Blanche’s affectations, too, and they take a liking to one another. On that occasion, Blanche meets one of Stanley’s friends named Harold “Mitch” Mitchell who, unlike the other men, has courteous manners that charm Blanche. The night following Blanche’s arrival, Stanley hosts a poker party with his friends at their apartment. ![]()
