This monologue has a nice arc in it. It takes place in a house in a seaside resort town. In this monologue Goldberg boasts of his good health and how it helped him reach his position in life - along with following the straight line and doing what he was told. At one point he starts to get lost in the memories of his father's death and how that affected him until he pulls himself out of his reverie and goes back to boasting about his good heath.
