Today I have kept out of the way of every possible hindrance... and at this moment I actually behold myself in her house.... I have, as you know, spent all the day in concealment, and I have got into the house unseen by any one. What cross event can now happen to disappoint my hopes?" <BR><BR>Anybody want to bet that all will go as planned in this comedy?
(Summary by ToddHW)

Kitty will be your ever faithful DPL. As maid Elvira, she may overlook Donna Anna's fault, but maybe not yours - so be careful!
