Hector smiles—that’s a rare thing.

ANDROMACHE Oh Hector. Why are you just staring at us? Can’t you speak?

(Hector only shakes his head at their beauty. He doesn’t know what to say.)

What are you doing home in the middle of the day? (Smiling.) Is the war over?

HECTOR (A little laugh.) No. It’s a bad day for us. I’ve come home to start the prayers.

ANDROMACHE Oh.

Hector—please listen to me. You’re all I have—Achilles killed my mother, my father, my brothers. Now I have only you—and our child. I’m begging you—stay on the ramparts. Why can’t you draw your army up by that fig tree down there, where the gate is weakest—you know they’ve attacked us three times on that very spot where the wall is low.
