What would you do if someone tried to rob you at eleven o'clock at night? You would probably not take the robber home and feed him. The short story "Thank You Ma'am" by Langston Hughes explains to think before you act and try to earn money the good way by not robbing.

Roger, who was the robber, was a very interesting character. At first he starts of as a tough mean robber who want to steal an innocent woman's purse. After being caught the woman drags him by his shirt to her house. Right now Roger is scared and does not want to be hurt or sent to jail. When they get to the woman's house she tells Roger to wash his face and get ready for dinner. He looks at the door and is thinking about running away but does not. Quote from the story "The door was open. He could make a dash for it down the hall. He could run, run, run, run, run!" Then before they eat roger tells the woman that he wanted blue suede shoes. The woman says, quote from the story, "Well, you didn’t have to snatch my pocketbook to get some suede shoes," said Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones. "You could of asked me."At the end the woman gives roger ten dollars to get the shoes. He is then led out side and says thank you and goodbye.
