A Tragedy
- Going against the warnings of his wife and family, Gandhi befriends a young man with a bad reputation whom he seeks to reform. Uh-oh.
- The friend reveals to him that many people secretly eat meat in violation of customs and religion. The friend also says eating meat makes the English occupiers physically bigger and stronger than the Indians.
- Under his friend's bad influence and seeking strength for himself and his countrymen so they may someday throw off English rule, Gandhi sets a date with his friend to eat meat—which Gandhi refers to as an experiment.
