Mrs. Johnstone announces to her family that they are moving away from their current home to start over somewhere new with no reputation following them. She tells the children that where they're moving to has clean air, a big garden, and room for the kids to play. All of the neighbors mock and insult the Johnstone family as "riff raff" and "scum" as they celebrate the family leaving what they view as an undesirable place. Mrs. Johnstone expresses her optimism about their new beginning and hopes they can now live happily in their new home and situation.
