You are Gussie Smithers, a novelist whose first book made your publisher rich and paid you three pounds, back at Meeson's offices hoping for an advance toward your sister Jeannie's care. Mr Meeson's nephew Eustace watches you dispute the account, then loses his own place at the firm for taking your side against his uncle. You leave with nothing signed, and when the doctor says Jeannie may not survive the winter without a costly change of air, you weigh returning to the very man you just called a cheat.
