Mister Salgado pays for Triton's first restaurant, which Triton spends time and effort building and decorating.

Triton reads every book in Mister Salgado's collection, silently guided by Mister Salgado, and takes classes. Though Mister Salgado is initially offered a position at a research institute, he is soon let go, as England is "another country running out of money" and thus unable to support his academic ventures.Īfter years of traveling through England, Triton and Mister Salgado settle in Earl's Court. In 1971, Mister Salgado and Triton settle into their solitary life in England.
