One of the most powerful confrontations takes place in the family study. Violet reminds Anthony of his responsibilities as head of the household and calls him out on his double life:
- The Confrontation: Violet directly asks Anthony whether, upon leaving the room, he will be returning to his own home or paying a visit to “a certain soprano across town.”
- Violet’s Message: She states that he is neglecting his duties and relying on his younger brothers to ultimately do the work he “cannot” (securing an heir and upholding the family name). She ends with the devastating question of whether he is merely an older brother, or truly the “man of this house.”
