WORTH ALOT OF POINTS!!!

Read these stage directions from Act II of A
Christmas Carol: Scrooge and Marley.


[Scrooge now comes to the room of his
Nephew and Niece. He stops at the door, be-
gins to knock on it, loses his courage, tries
again, loses his courage again, tries again, fails
again, and then backs off and runs at the
door, causing a tremendous bump against it.]


What do these stage directions suggest is
Scrooge's most likely thought at this moment
in the play?
