Then flashes back to 1936 in Brooklyn, where JackMcGurn is involved with the Projectionists Union. Jack is involved in setting a fire in a Brooklyn move theater and burns his hands while trying to put it out. He disagrees with the boss of the local chapter of the union and is told to get out of town. He knows about the law, having taught himself, and is called "sweatshop lawyer" by other union members.

Mr. Kawamura, the father, introduces his children to visitors from Japan and then goes off to play cards for money. The children disapprove. Everyone is startled when the projectionist at the Kawamura Movie Theater commits suicide.
