  2. At the beginning of scene 7 Blanche is bathing. Stella is decorating and Stanley comes in. He fills Stella in on Blanche's shady past and tells Stella he bought Blanche a birthday present. It was a ticket to Laurel. Blanche was fired from her job for messing around with a 17 year old boy and that is just one of the many lies she has told. In scene 8 Blanche, Stella, and Stanley are sitting around and celebrating Blanche's birthday. Mitch hasn't showed up. Stanely gives Blanche her birthday present. She smiles at it at first, but then she can't hold it in any longer. She runs to the bedroom and then the bathroom. Stella scolds Stanley for being so harsh towards Blanche and says she's had a rough past. As Stanley yells back at her explaining he just wants Blacnhe to leave so things can go back to normal, Stella tells him to take her to the hospital. Scene nine begins with Mitch coming by. Blanche says how he did not show for her birthday, but she forgives him. He goes through the door without giving her a kiss and asks her to shut off the fan. Blanche has her husband's death memory stuck in her head. She offers Mitch a drink and acts like she's never drank it before. However, Mitch states that Stanley has claimed Blanche has drank all his liquor. Mitch finally stops beating around the bush and tells Blanche it's bothering him that he's never seen her in the light. Mitch wants to be realistic and Blanche wants to be magical. He switches on the light and Blanche cries. Mitch switches off the light. Mitch says he doesn't care about Blanche's age, but he's upset with the fact that she lied to him all summer about who she was. He has heard stories about her past from three different sources: Stanley, Shaw, and merchant from Laurel. Blanche claims they're all liars. But she finally gives in and tells the truth. She looks to strangers for compassion. Mitch says she has lied to her inside and out. Blanche says in her heart she did not lie. A mexican woman then comes to the door selling funeral flowers and Blanche slams the door on her. Mitch says he wants what he waited all summer for. Blanche wants him to marry her first but Mitch says she's not fit to live in the same house as his mother. Blanche finally gets Mitch to run out of the house after screaming and threatening to yell fire. Scene ten starts a few hours later. Blanche is talking to imaginary people in front of the mirror with a tiara on her head. She gets angry at her reflection and smashes the mirror. Stanley returns home, drunk and says the baby will not be born until tomorrow. Blanche tells her that her friend Shep has invited her on a yacht in the Caribbean. Stanley is happy for her. Blanche goes on to talk about what Mitch has accused her of. Stanley asks her when she received her telegram from Shep, before or after Mitch stopped by. She is caught off guard and Stanley catches her in a lie. She tries to call Shep and Western Union from the operator but is unable. She tries to defend herself from Stanley with a bottle but he grabs her arms. Stanley rapes Blanche.

  4. Scene 7- Stanley tells Stella confirmed lies about Blanche. “But Sister Blanche is no lily!” (1581)
    “They kicked her out of the high school, because she got mixed up with a seventeen year old boy, not because of her nerves” (1582).
    Stanley is sending Blanche home by Tuesday; he bought her a bus ticket.
    Scene 8- Blanche, Stanley, Stella, are all together when Stella talks smack of Stanley. “Pig-Polack-disgusting-vulgar-greasy!” (1585) Stanley makes Stella cry, shows that Stanley has no respect for her.
    Scene 9- Mitch claims that it is Blanche’s lying, not her age that bothers him. Potentially, Blanche is Stanley’s victim.
    Scene 10- Stanley has changed greatly by this second to last scene. Then compared to at the start of the play, Stanley is more likable and down to earth than Blanche.

  6. During scene 7, Blanche is bathing while Stanley and Stella are talking in the kitchen. Stanley tells Stella that Blanche has lied the entire time and he has proof. He says Blanche slept around while she was in Laurel, including a 17 year old student, and the town practically forced her out. Blanche seems to realize that something is wrong when she steps out of the bath. Meanwhile, Stanley tells Stella that he bought Blanche a bus ticket out of their lives. In scene 8 it is Blanche's birthday party. Mitch, after hearing the truth from Stanley, does not show. Blanche is depressed and making small talk with Stanley, and he in turn is making fun of her. Stella tries to defend Blanche, resulting in a fight between Stella and Stanley, and then Stella suddenly goes into labor. During scene 9, Blanche is alone in the flat and Mitch stops by after work, which upsets Blanche because he is in his work clothes. He tells Blanche that he has no intention of marrying her now that he knows the truth. Blanche reveals all of her lies, and Mitch seems to think she is crazy. Blanche tells Mitch to go away if he has no intention of marrying her. During scene 10, Blanche is still alone, and drinking heavily while packing her bags and talking to herself. Stanley comes home to get some sleep, stating that the baby wont be born until the morning. Blanche says she received a wire from a man from Shep, saying that he is going to take her on a trip on his yacht. Stanley realizes she is lying after he asks her if she received the telegram before or after Mitch stopped by and she is caught off guard. She then says Mitch stopped by to give her flowers and Stanley gets angry, knowing that Mitch never came by a second time. Blanche tries to call the Western Union but is too flustered. Stanley blocks her way out of the flat and she grabs her liquor bottle and breaks it in order to defend herself. Stanley catches her by the arms and she faints. He then tosses her on the bed and we are led to believe that he raped her.

  13. Stanley boasts of the fact that he has destroyed Blanche's relationship with Mitch by revealing all her lies to him. Blanche claims she was just trying to bring "magic" by glossing things over with her lies. Stella yells at Stanley to try and bring him back under control, and is sent into labor in her excitement. In the next scene, Mitch comes drunkenly to the Elysian Fields and forcces Blanche to be seen in the light. He then implies that he wants to have relations with Blanche, so she chases him away in anger by yelling "Fire!". And in the next scene, Stanley returns to the apartment to celebrate the birth of his child. Blanche lies one final time to Stanley, and in his refusal to believe her, he decides finally to rape her. He says they've been fated to do it since they first met.

    In the beginning of scene 7, Stella is decorating for Blanche's birthday. Stanley tells Stella about all the stuff that he heard about Blanche, but Stella doesn't fully believe what he is saying. Stanley's birthday gift to Blanch is a bus ticket because he doesn't want her there anymore. While Stanley was telling Stella about Blanche, Blanche was bathing. In scene 8, it is still Blanche's birthday party. Blanche asks Stanley to tell a joke, but he does not , so Blanche tells one. Mitch never came to the dinner and Stanley gets mad at Stella because she told him he had greasy fingers. In scene 9, Mitch arrives and he talks to Blanche about how he doesn't mind that Blanche is older than him but he was mad that Blanche lied to him all along. In scene 10, Blanche knows that Stanley knows that she is a liar. The conversation turns into an argument and it can be interpreted that Stanley rapes Blanche.

  35. Much happens within scenes seven through ten. To start it off, a sort of surprise party occurred for Blanche as Stella decorated the house as Blanche was bathing. Stanley arrives home and talks to Stella about Blanche and her past. He basically tells Stella she is a liar and the truth is she had got fired from her job because she was involved with a minor. Soon they all celebrate without Mitch showing up and Blanche receives her gift from Stanley. It was a ticket back to her town, she was upset and ran off. Mitch and Blanche have a talk and she offers to drink. Mitch also wanted to see Blanche in the light not caring about her age, but she cries. Thing began to stir up and Blanche forced Mitch to leave.
