Characters Present:
Petya Rostóv
Location:
Moscow
Petya sneaks out to go and see Tsar Alexander, who has just arrived in Moscow, meaning to petition him directly to join the army.
The crowds are too great though, and Petya gets a crushed.
He is revived by some church people and waits outside the building where the Emperor is eating, for the Emperor to come out and address the crowd.
When Petya returns home, he tells his father that he should be allowed to join the army, or he will run away. The following day, Count Rostóv starts to inquire about safe posts to where Petya could be sent.
