An extended Dickens passage shows Scrooge amid wintry cold and a charity visitor asking about prisons and the Poor Law. A street singer pleads for a blessing as Scrooge angrily hinders him at the keyhole, then reflects on the season's mercy and goodness.
Scrooge refuses charity and labor, arguing intransigence over a Christmas Eve. He encounters two visiting gentlemen seeking charitable aid and defends his frugality while musing on Marley. The scene shifts to a bleak, festive city night as Scrooge contemplates his life in dim chambers awaiting what comes next.
