Back at the theater, the young man who works for the governor's office is complaining to his boss about the lack of money in the theater. He wants to know why the governor wants to marry him if he can't get a house. The man says that he loves him, but if they get married now, they'll spend their lives together without money. The young man says he'll turn 30 this year and needs a place to live. He asks if the governor will be able to pay him a million dollars for the job he's been working on. The guy says that's just a small price to pay for his services. He's a good guy, he says, and he'd rather be left alone than be punished.
