Throughout the script we see the phrase, "do the right thing" and indeed the script provides a point about doing the right thing.

My Favorite Sport To Play

Robert Vargas English 1101 January 24, 2018 Professor Young My Favorite Sport to Play Amongst the many sports out there, my all-time favorite has to be baseball.

If I get the chance to dorm next year I will surely try out for the team.
