Narcotised-verb
Tranquility-noun
He didn’t know what he was doing…
Justification, the ellipsis suggest doubtfulness in her statement

Contradictory as the wedding night is meant for peaceful joy
Blanche: ‘pull yourself and face the facts’
Irony as she is unable to do so
B: ‘ your fix is worse than mine’
Self admission
‘Are you deliberately shaking that thing in my face?’
Provking Blanche
‘What you are talking about is brutal desire-just-desire
‘The devil is in you’
Reference to Stanley from Blanche
(Overhears their following conversation) ——(licking his lips)
He has overheard the discussion of Blanche and Stella, animalistic behaviour, he has been angered
He acts like animal
He grins through the curtain at Blanche
