THE MILLION POUND BANK NOTE

ACT 1, SCENE3

Narrator: Two rich brothers, Roderick and Oliver, have made a bet. Oliver believes that with a million­pound bank note a man could live a month in London. His brother Roderick doubts it. They see a poor young man walking outside their house. It is Henry Adams.

Roderick: Young man, would you step inside a moment, please?

Henry: Who? Me, sir?

Roderick: Yes, you.

Servant: (opening a door) Good morning, sir. Would you please come in?

(Henry enters the house.)

Roderick: How do you do, Mr...er...?

Henry: Adams. Henry Adams.

Oliver: Come and sit down, Mr. Adams.

Henry: Thank you.

Roderick: You’re an American?

Henry: That’s right, from San Francisco.

Roderick: May we ask what you’re doing in this country and what your plans are?

Henry: Well, I can’t say that I have any plans. As a matter of fact, I landed in Britain by accident.

Oliver: How is that possible?

Henry: Well, I had my own boat. About a month ago, I was sailing, and towards night I found myself carried out to sea by a strong wind. The next morning I was spotted by a ship.

Oliver: And it was the ship that brought you to England.

Henry: Yes. I went to the American consulate to seek help, but...Anyway, I didn’t dare to try again. (The brothers smile at each other.)

Roderick: Well, you mustn’t worry about that. It’s an advantage.

Henry: I’m afraid I don’t quite follow you, sir.

Roderick: Tell us, what sort of work did you do in America?

Henry: I worked for a mining company. Could you offer me work here?

Roderick: Patience. If you don’t mind, may I ask you how much money you have?

Henry: Well, to be honest, I have none.

Oliver: (happily) What luck! Brother, what luck!

Henry: Well, it may seem lucky to you but not to me! If this is your idea of some kind of joke, I don’t think it’s very funny. Now if you’ll excuse me, I ought to be on my way.

Roderick: Please don’t go. You mustn’t think we don’t care about you, Oliver, give him the letter.

Oliver: Yer, I was about to go get the letter.

Wait！(getting it from a desk and giving it to Henry) The letter.

Henry: (taking it carefully) For me?

Roderick: For you. (Henry starts to open it.) Oh, no, you’d better not open it. You can’t open it until two o’clock.

Henry: Oh, this is silly.

Roderick: Not silly. There’s money in it.

Henry: Oh, no. I don’t want your charity. I just want a job that earns an honest income.

Roderick: We know you’re hard­working. That’s why we’ve given you the letter. (to the servant) Show Mr. Adams out.

Henry: Well, why don’t you explain what this is all about?

Roderick: You’ll soon know. In exactly an hour and a half.

Servant: This way, sir.

Roderick: Not until 2 o’clock. Promise?

Henry: Promise. Goodbye.
