I'm so glad you said so. [Mack shows surprise.] Because, if you hadn't and I hadn't understood, you might have been tempted to take it without asking—and then you'd've been so sorry and ashamed. A man couldn't come into another man's house, and be welcomed, and then take the other man's coat, without losing his self-respect ... could he? And, of course, if we're going to pull ourselves together, and get out of a hole, we must keep our self-respect.
Mack
I wouldn't steal——
Daniel
You couldn't.... It's your coat.... You asked for it, and I gave it to you.... When you've worn it ... into a good job ... come back and help me give another to someone who needs it as you do.
Mack
I will.
Daniel
Of course you will. [Helps him into the coat, and then shakes his hand.] Good-night.
