Max suddenly falls in love at first sight with Helen Givens, a "tall, slim, titian-haired [white] girl" who, he believes, "had seemingly stepped from heaven or the front cover of a magazine" (Schuyler, 20). Helen refuses to dance with Max because of Max's race. Helen's indignant racist remark puts Max on the spot and brings him back to the living reality. Helen's reference to Max as a "darky" and a "nigger" cautions him that regardless of his social status, he should always know the place reserved for him and his kind in a race-conscious America.

Helen's refusal of Max's advances so irritates him that he decides he must win her. The next day he learns that an old friend, Dr. Junius Crookman, has returned from Germany with a discovery of what he naively believes to be the solution to "the American race problem." This discovery could possibly do "what agitation, education and legislation had failed to do" (Schuyler, 54-55).
