Walter Lee wants to give Travis something to look up to and be proud of as well as have a job where his family is financially comfortable. In his speech on pg. 109 in A Raisin in the Sun, Walter says "Just tell me, what it is you want to be... and I hand you the world!" Walter wants to make a business deal to ensure the safety of his family in the future, and as the story progesses, he realizes that the man he trusted to care for his money has vanished.

He storms out of the house, seeking the two men with whom he plans to do business and also to complain about his job. Mama meanswhile suspects Ruth to be pregnant.Beneatha discusses her new, independent style in college. She is courted by two men: the first boy, George Murchison, is a wealthy Negro concerned with appearances and material, while the second, Joseph Asagai, is a native African that inspires her intellectually and spiritually. Asagai brings Bennie authentic Nigerian robes as a gift, and she puts them on, pretending to be an African princess. George arrives to take Bennie out to the theater and is appalled by her attire, forcing her to change. The Younger family is in favor of George because they believe his money will help her and themselves.When the check finally does arrive, Lena has trouble dealing, for she realizes that the ten thousand dollars is a replacement for her husband.

When Ruth confirms these suspicions, Walter is silent, sending Mama into shock.Mama tells the family that she put a down payment on a house in Clybourne Park with the insurance money, so that Travis will one day be able to grow up to become a man with property.
