The next day, the gang meets again. This time, they're talking about the play they saw the night before. The actors were good, but the staging was so elaborate that the audience didn't get a chance to see what was going on with the characters. This is the first time we've heard about the noble man in the play, so we're not sure what he's talking about. He's got a single stroke, which means he can do whatever he wants with the people around him. The only problem is that he doesn't have a bodyguard, so he can't follow the leader's lead. He wants to know what single stroke is all about, and he wants to see how the people react to his single stroke. He also wants to find out about the leader himself. He asks if he can join his party, and the gang says that they'll let him in. He says that he was moved by the performance yesterday, but he couldn't find anyone else who stood out in the audience. He wonders if there's a need for such a dis-appointed leader, since the adventur and the other members of the troupe knew he was the one who played the part. He thinks that if he had known someone else, he might not have been able to play the part he did, and that's why he feels so frustrated. He tells the gang that he'll be able to live up to their expectations, but that fear is something he controls.
