Polly and the Allyns lookalike at the luncheon
Polly, a bustling lunch counter owner, confronts a desperate young man who matches the Allyns in looks. He avoids paying for lunch, claims job loss, and is offered help by Polly who arranges a possible construction-gang job through Jim Murphy at the town hall. The man leaves with an emplaced bronze button as a keepsake. Polly recalls Toby Allyn and ponders the mystery woman.
