The story

In 1846, Benjamin Barker, a barber, arrives in London, accompanied by young sailor Anthony Hope.

The Beadle throws Anthony into the street and beats him with a cane, but Anthony vows to return and rescue Johanna ("Johanna").

Lovett is shocked but accepts Todd's justifications, having grown emotionally attached to Pirelli's downtrodden assistant Tobias "Toby" Ragg, whom she adopts as a son.
