Alex sang nonchalantly while watching opera diva Domina Stahlbaum sing on his small TV set. Domina had become an overnight sensation after performing Ode to Joy along with her male band mates in public.
"How lovely is she," sighed Alex dreamily.
Frances turned off the TV "If you keep acting like this, your parents will be sad and I'll be ashamed. Please understand!"

"Give me that! It's my ticket for the performance." Alex had sacrificed drinking drug laced milk to save and waited in line for it.
"He's overreacting again!" Francis exclaimed.
"Now I'm off to see my singing devotchka!" Alex shouted as he burst out his door with Frances tailing him. She had got herself a ticket too, much to Alex's oblivion.

Everyone in lone was pushing and shoving. A squad of police cars came.
"Step aside!" yelled Officer Barnes in a police car. "Listen! No pushing! Enough, you scum!"
"That's right," added Alex. " The seats are numbered and no need to push. So everybody line up properly please."
"This young man is certainly right." commented Barnes.
Then the bells for entrance chimed "The gates are now opening." announced the voice over. Alex ran in front, knocking everyone down, including Frances. "Why won't he learn?" she moaned.
