Opening Night!

Mick's is the local hang out for the working men from the local foundry. The common welcoming is "Hey, Mick, gimme a quick one." Many a break will find the workers crossing the street to catch a 'quick one.' Many of them need it to get through their long day of hard labor. The owner, Mick, will agree as he tells the men when they are talking too much, "We drink here! Whiskey! And beer!"

Russ: Well, don't take it out on Dodo. Bull: Him and all the others like him!

Russ: Now let's get this straight, sir. You are laying ten dollars even money that the Dodo Bird is going to drink that shot of whiskey before his daughter.....

Russ: Okay, Dodo, let's show this loud‑mouth foundry yokel how we do things in the big city. Bull: Drink it....

For those theater lovers who were at the opening last night, here's a couple questions that you might want to share your thoughts about. Why does Russ enter into this 'agreement'? What do you think 'drives' Bull to be so angry. And what about Mick? Whose side is he on?
