4 2ND SPECTATOR "In that, I may be called as an alternate of the Council, I cannot in honor tell you of the principal, though, I can say the confronter is firey, articulate, and owns not the name of his mother or father." 1ST SPECTATOR "If he is fierce, the confrontation will be in vain for the confrontation is the distillation of a mans' words. Doers of deeds, activist, are at a disadvantage. I fear that this is the flaw in our system here." 2ND SPECTATOR "Ideas, my dear friend, are bigger than acts...an act seeks actuality and in actualizing it finalizes itself. But the glory of an idea is its' very virileness. It's ability to light and set fire to an infinite number of ideas which in turn give rise to a like number of idea progenitors...Pity the man who stakes his reputation upon words, for he alone, opens Pandora's box, and unleashes the contagion of his thoughts. 1ST SPECTATOR "More True than ever...Uneasy is the head that wears the silk topper." Chairs are being moved into a semi-circle...desk are placed about. The tribunal is slowly forming. 1ST SPECTATOR (Noticing the activity) "Ah...It won't be long now...they are setting up the circle. (looking up) Some of these funeral affairs take quite some time. I was glad to get mine over and get the hell in the ground. Some of your friends can really embarass you, right at the last moments." 1st. 2nd. and 3rd. Readers enter with some books. The 1st Reader carries a rather large book. The 2nd. Reader has three books, each larger than the 1st. Reader's. The 3rd. Reader is casual and carries a single small book.
