Henry is eating. He seems quite hungry, but also quite happy to be eating such a large meal.
The waiter seems quite angry. Perhaps Henry does not have enough money to pay the bill.
B.
Both the waiter and Henry look like they are in a state of shock. The waiter is looking at a piece of paper. Is this the million-pound bank note?
Henry is leaving, and everyone is treating him like he is a king. Even though his back is turned to us, he still looks unsure.

B.
1. Why does the owner of the restaurant want Henry to sit somewhere else?
2. What does Henry order? Why is the waiter surprised?
Since Henry is poorly dressed, the owner of the restaurant does not want him to sit in the middle of the room where everyone can see him.
Henry orders ham and eggs, a nice big juicy steak with all the trimmings, and a tall tankard of ale(一大杯啤酒) – twice. The waiter is surprised that Henry eats so much food.
B.
The owner thinks Henry does not have the money to pay.
3. Why does the owner think Henry hesitates to pay the bill?
4. Why does the owner think the bank note is probably real?
Because no one would get into trouble to forge a bill of such a high amount – it would be crazy.
5. What happens in the end?
All the people in the restaurant think Henry is an eccentric millionaire and the owner let him leave without having
to pay the bill
