Structurally, dialogue between Juvencio’s and the colonel balances the initial conversation between Juvencio and his son. What other purposes does it serve?

The dialogue also served as an opportunity for the father to confess and plead for mercy from the colonel and help from his son.

Explanation:

Juvencio Nava who murdered the colonel's father has been seeking for pardon from the colon who was determined to kill him. He pleaded with his son, Justino to beg the colonel to spare his life. But the son responded by telling the father that the sergeant wasn't ready to listen. At this point, Juvencio wasn't ready to die.

idk but i did find this

explanation:

in the story of the cowardly lion and the hungry tiger, we first see the two characters inside the empty throne room of ozma, bored and sadly very much aware of their uselessness as guardians. they talked about the good old days when they used to be feared. they proceeded to make up stories of how fearsome they were. the cowardly lion professed that he can tear men/women into pieces, while the hungry tiger said he would eat fat babies. but when they proceeded to act upon their words they were forced to realize that they were indeed harmless and good animals who would rather be called cowardly and hungry than harm a woman or eat a child.

same test same problem
