Abstract


The setting is going to be in the barracks playing cards during World War One. Michael the communist [the red] and Alexander [the white] get into a discussion on their opinions on the war. Michael starts off saying that all the war is because of the rich people. Alexander says that they are fighting for their country, for their families, and what they believe in. Michael gets into the argument by saying that the people, who lead this war, are rich and are using the soldiers, who are middle class or poor, to fight the war for them. Also, that the soldiers are all brothers and should fight against the rich people all together and not fight against each other. Alexander argues about the bad that the Germans have caused and shouldn’t let that slip by and defend their country. The argument continues between them until the card game is finished. Alexander sees that he’s lost the card game and says “I lost, you won…up for another round?” Michael agrees and they start playing cards again. Scene ends.
