As the play opens, how is mrs. wright's kitchen described? it is part of a typical country farmhouse. it features all the latest appliances for the time. it is unusually tidy, at least on the surface. it is messy and looks hastily abandoned.

They enter the kitchen and find it very filthy, with dirty rags hanging all over the place, and dishes in the sink still unwashed. They immediately connect the place with Mrs. Wright being a bad housewife and woman in general and don't even try to investigate any further into why she did what she did until the townswomen help them.
