Gilbert
taking leave
I appreciate your showing me the office.  Thank you.  And I'll see you tomorrow.
Andrew
Not much of me, I'm sure.
Gilbert
Walks towards the main door, looks back, exits.
Andrew
goes to the computer, which Millie has left on
logs on
What he sees is projected on a large screen visible to the audience
 An e-mail from Taplow gives Andrew the link to You-Tube, where Taplow can be seen singing to the tune of "The Impossible Dream"
Taplow on YouTube

He very help student like me.
E--ven school finish  he help me

I very like song that he teach
To tune we remember a word
To live with your heart saying thank you!
To a far dadadadada star.
moves closer to the camera and speaks
Sorry, I copy last two line mostly.  Manuscript Rule.  Other side.

Andrew
half laugh, half sob

Frank
enters
Hello, Andrew.  You're still tutoring?
Andrew
No, but look at this. I can't believe this.  Look what this student has done.  How do you get it to go back?
Frank
starts it again
(Repeat of Taplow's "performance."
That's wonderful!  That's quite a tribute, what I can understand of it
