Scrooge witnesses a future shaped by greed and indifference, including the heartless reactions of those who stand to benefit from his demise.
As Scrooge confronts his tombstone and begs for redemption, the chapter underscores themes of transformation, responsibility, and hope.
Will Scrooge embrace the chance to rewrite his future? Tune in for an in-depth discussion on this pivotal moment in Dickens' timeless tale.
