Synopsis
Some time after the play has ended, Louis wakes up in the school infirmary, surrounded by the other drama club members. Louis asks if the public saw him faint, and they answer no. Bill reveals that he has a fracture in his left foot, thus cannot participate in the play tomorrow. Louis notes that they are sorry for him, and he demands that they not treat him like a helpless animal, which makes other members nervous. Louis regains his calm and asks Bill to be his substitute in the next show.

In rehearsals Bill performs well, while Legoshi, who must now occupy Bill's old role, is very nervous about it. Bill helps him in trials in a delicate way. Bill says that strong animals should stand out and that he will give everything of himself in the play.

After the rehearsals, Legoshi meets Els who accompanies him while they talk. Els gives him words of encouragement, which pleases Legoshi. After saying goodbye, Legoshi is motivated to give the best of himself in the show.
