The young man stood tall on the deck of the boat, his eyes fixed on the horizon as the golden sun began to climb up the sky. His heart was filled with determination and his mind was set on a single purpose - to spread the joy of his chocolate to the world. The gentle breeze played with his hair and the sound of the waves beneath him added to the serene ambiance of the ocean. He patiently awaited his arrival at the destination, his eyes sparkling with hope and dreams of a brighter future.

"After seven years of life upon the ocean
It is time to bid the Seven Seas farewell
And the city I've pinned seven years of hopes on
Lies just over the horizon, I can hear the harbor bell
Land, ahoy
Got a tattered overcoat and battered suitcase
Got a pair of leaky boots upon my feet
Gotta drag myself up by my one good bootlace
Gotta work my rotten socks off if I want to make ends meet
I've poured everything I've got into my chocolate
Now it's time to show the world my recipes
I've got twelve silver sovereigns in my pocket
And a hatful of dreams"

As the young man gets off the boat and on top of a truck he is off to the city to seek out his dream.

"There's a famous restaurant on every street here
There's Brandino's and the Bar Parisian (Restaurant map, sir?)
Oh, thank you
Got a little map to tell me where to eat here
Had a dozen silver sovereigns, now I'm somehow down to ten"

"Want the finest produce? This is where they stock it (That's three sovereigns, mate)
Though the prices are suspiciously extreme (Break my pumpkin, you pay for it)
I've got five, six, seven?
Six silver sovereigns in my pocket
And a hatful of dreams"

"Brush your coat, sir?
No thank you
Cologne?
No, leave me alone"

"At last, the Gallery Gourmet
I knew that we'd see it one day
It's everything you said, Mama
And, oh, so much more
Each way that you turn, another famous chocolate store"

"Here's my destiny, I just need to unlock it
Will I crash and burn or go up like a rocket?
I got nothing to offer but my chocolate
And a hatful of dreams"
In this city, anyone can be successful
If they've talent and work hard, or so they say
But they didn't mention it would be so stressful
Just to make a dozen silver sovereigns last more than a day"

"Could you spare a sovereign for a place to sleep, love?
Of course, here, take all you need
Thank you"

"I've got one silver sovereign in my pocket
And a hatful of dreams"

After a long day of exploring the city, he finds himself with no money and ends up sitting on a bench in the cold. He takes off his top hat and pulls out a candle, a clock, a cup, and a tea kettle. He lights the candle and pours a liquid into the cup to warm himself up.

He prepares the drink and within moments a dog appears and starts pulling on the man's pants. "Aye stop! Aye shoo! go away stop! Shoo! Shoo!" The man yelled out hoping to get rid of the dog but then someone came yelling at it, "Stop! Sit!" A guy shouted out and immediately, the dog obeyed and came to a stop.

"Sorry about Tiddles, he seems to have an unusual interest in your legs" A guy came out of the shadows with a creepy smile and revealed himself as the owner of the dog named Tiddles.

The curly-haired man put his top hat on and spoke out, "Must be these pants got them from a mailman in mintsk" he looked at the creepy man with a warm smile. "Ah yeah, Tiddles would spend all day pursuing postal workers if he could."
