The next morning, the newsies, including Spot and Lila who had walked over from Brooklyn in the early hours, stood outside the World Building, picketing. Lila was wearing her usual clothing but she had Spot's shirt on instead.
"Stop the World! No more papes! Stop the World!"
A delivery wagon came through, along with a policeman and then the other police formed a barricade.
"Race! Help me! I need some help!" David calls
"Alright! I ain't deaf!"
Spot and Lila walk through the crowd, breaking everyone up. When they get to the front Spot looks ahead and sees something, or someone being led out by Weasel.
"Doll, tell me I'm not seeing things."
Lila looks up to see Jack, her own brother, dressed in a new suit with a Newsboys cap on.
Lila shakes her head, "Race?"
"No, you ain't seeing things. That's Jack. What's he doing?"
"He's dressed like a scabber!"
Mush steps up to the front and tries to get through, "Jack? Jack, look at me, will ya? Come on, it's me, Mush. Look at me. What are you doin', Jack?"
"This ain't happening. This can't be happening. What are you doin' Jack? Come on, what are you doin'?"
"Come on. What is this? Where'd you get them clothes?"
"Mr. Pulitzer picked them out himself. A special gift to a special new employee." Weasel exclaims
"He sold us out!"
"I'll give you a new suit! You bum! I'll soak ya!"
Lila holds Race back but stops when Spot starts to yell, "Hey, hey, hey! Let me get my hands dirty. Come here you dirty rotten scabber! Traitor! How could you do this to Lila?!"
