NATHANIEL
That tramp?
JONATHAN
Yes, sir.... That's Hank.
NATHANIEL
Hank?
JONATHAN
Yes, the one I ran away with.
NATHANIEL
Did you run away, too?
JONATHAN
Yes, sir; I jumped out the window, and I fell and broke my back. Hank said—
NATHANIEL
What a dirty man!
JONATHAN
He's my pal.
NATHANIEL
You're evidently a fine young man inside.
JONATHAN
Oh, I'm sorry, sir, that I ran away.
NATHANIEL
You can't undo the past, my boy, but you can make the future.
JONATHAN
I can't straighten my back.
NATHANIEL
Perhaps not, but you can straighten your life.
JONATHAN
I'm only a beggar, sir.
NATHANIEL
There is something everybody can do.
JONATHAN
There isn't any place for me....
NATHANIEL
My boy, there is a place for everybody who wants a place.
JONATHAN
Do you remember what your nephew wanted to do?
NATHANIEL
Yes, he wanted to write plays and run a theatre and be an actor.
JONATHAN
I couldn't ever be an actor, could I?
NATHANIEL
No, my boy.
JONATHAN
Supposing you had your heart set on something and couldn't do it, what would you do?
NATHANIEL
I'd not give up.... I'd try something else.
JONATHAN
Supposing I were your nephew, what would you do?
NATHANIEL
I'd find out what you wanted to be.
That tramp?

Yes, sir.... That's Hank.
