In Mr. Bacon's presence a youth accidentally handles his beloved flute, prompting staff to seize them and call them "bastards." The two parentless youths—Cindy and a companion—plead to stay because their mother is dying and they claim a check from Mr. Bacon will pay for her treatment. Management accuses them of stealing the check and orders them out. The companion kneels, refusing to leave, demanding $300,000 and saying, "I'll stay kneeling here till I die!" Someone alerts Mr. Bacon; the episode ends with the desperate demand unresolved and his reaction pending.
