A fragmented 19th century street scene shows a window with a bold offer of Dickens works for twelve shillings, an encounter with Treisman, a bootmaker's quip about mending, and a doctor’s brusque remark about charges. A Jewish mother in Soho seeks an apology for her child’s absence, presenting a medicine bottle with a misread label from the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel among the Jews, as a barber intervenes over a bottle and a beard remedy.
