The theme best shown in this piece of dialogue, taken from the play written by Alice Childress : Mojo and String, is Might makes right. L.V. Craig tells Joe not to chicken out for the action that he did. He stole the wallet but with a list he gave it back. The might makes right theory is that you got to stand by your actions, and retain your power through cunning and list if needed. Joe could not do that and L.V. Craig told him that he chickened out, he was not a thief but just a rascal.
