class and the "physical aversion" he exhibits toward his teachers. In the evening, Paul works as a "model" usher for Carnegie Hall in Pittsburgh. After helping seat the patrons in his section, he stays for the concert and enjoys the social scene while losing himself in the music. After the concert, Paul follows the soloist and imagines life inside her hotel room.

Paul's few days of impersonating a rich, privileged young man bring him more contentment than he had ever known, living the lavish lifestyle of his hopes and dreams.

longs to be wealthy, cultivated, and powerful, he lacks the stamina and ambition to change his condition. Instead, Paul escapes his monotonous life by visiting Charley Edwards, a young actor. Later on, Paul makes it clear to one of his teachers that his job ushering is more important than his schoolwork, causing his father to prevent him from continuing to work as an usher. He is taken out of school and put to work at an entry-level office job, and Charley is compelled to promise not to see Paul again.

Paul because of how he acts in the story. When actually looking back and seeing how much Paul was struggling it's much easier to sympathize with him. Paul is clearly both unaware and unable to control the way he acts and feels.
