Which line of dialogue in this excerpt from Susan Glaspell's Trifles suggests that the attorney believes women are incapable of plotting?

COUNTY ATTORNEY: No, Peters, it's all perfectly clear except a reason for doing it. But you know juries when it comes to women. If there was some definite thing. Something to show—something to make a story about—a thing that would connect up with this strange way of doing it—

(The women's eyes meet for an instant. Enter HALE from outer door.)

HALE: Well, I've got the team around. Pretty cold out there.

COUNTY ATTORNEY: I'm going to stay here a while by myself, (to the SHERIFF) You can send Frank out for me, can't you? I want to go over everything. I'm not satisfied that we can't do better.

SHERIFF: Do you want to see what Mrs Peters is going to take in?

(The LAWYER goes to the table, picks up the apron, laughs.)

COUNTY ATTORNEY: Oh, I guess they're not very dangerous things the ladies have picked out. (Moves a few things about, disturbing the quilt pieces which cover the box. Steps back) No, Mrs Peters doesn't need supervising. For that matter, a sheriff's wife is married to the law. Ever think of it that way, Mrs Peters?

MRS PETERS: Not—just that way.

Answer:

"Oh, I guess they're not very dangerous things the ladies have picked out."

Explanation:

Susan Glaspell's short play "Trifles" revolves around the murder of Mr. Wright where his wife has been accused of doing the deed and put on trial. The focus of the scene is set in the scene of the crime where the attorney, the sheriff, and Hale were going through the stuff along with their wives.

From the scene given in the question, it is evident that the men did not really think the women are capable of making discoveries, let alone, a crucial one. One evidence is that the lawyer did not think the things that Mrs. Peters has picked to take with her are important or even related to the case. He merely asserts it as "they're not very dangerous things the ladies have picked out", little realizing that it was the women who discovered the reason and possibly uncovered the whole situation relating to the murder.

Thus, the line of dialogue that suggests that the attorney believes women are incapable of plotting is "Oh, I guess they're not very dangerous things the ladies have picked out."

Gravity is caused by matter, and as matter increases, the pull of gravity increases too. Stars are born when enough matter collects that gravity makes it collapse into a hot, dense protostar. When the star gets big enough and hot enough, the central core has enough energy to fuse hydrogen atoms into helium atoms.

Read the excerpt from "Clever Gretel."

It came to pass that the master one day said to her: "Gretel, there is a guest coming this evening; prepare me two chickens very nicely."


"I will see to it, master," answered Gretel. She killed two chickens, plucked them, put them on the spit, and towards evening set them before the fire, that they might roast. The fowls began to turn brown, and were nearly ready, but the guest had not yet arrived.


Then Gretel called out to her master: "If the guest does not come, I must take the fowls away from the fire, but it will be a sin and a shame if they are not eaten the moment they are at their juiciest."

What conclusion can be drawn about how Gretel viewed cooking and food?

She thought cooking was too much work for one person.
She thought food can only be enjoyed when you eat alone.
She thought cooking should be done only to serve others.
She thought food should be eaten when the time was right.
