"What am I after?"
"You're after my place. You're hoping Mr. Porter will take you on again. But it's no use. There ain't any chance for you."
"How long have you been back again, Sam?"
"Three months, and I am going to stay, too. You got me turned off once, but you can't do it again."
"I don't want to."
"Oh, no, I presume not," sneered Sam. "Of course, you don't. You've got on the same clothes you wore away, haven't you?"
"Yes, it's the same suit, but I've got some more things in my bundle."
"I guess you haven't made your fortune, by the looks."
"The fact is, Sam, I haven't earned much since I went away."
