Eunice nicely notices that Blanche is confused and in need of directions. Their conversation is simple...... Eunice confirms that Blanche has arrived at her destination, and that Stella does indeed live in the building. Blanche, slightly appalled, questions the Elysian Fields can be Stella's home. She is definitely put off by its appearance.

BLANCHE [uncomprehendingly]:
I'm looking for my sister, Stella DuBois. I mean--Mrs. Stanley Kowalski.
EUNICE:
That's the party.--You just did miss her, though.
BLANCHE:
This--can this be--her home?
