Answer:
Having awakened, Mr. Samuel Pickwick resolves to get at the truth which lies beyond the scene outside his window. He quickly shaves, dresses, and has coffee before going out to hail a cab which is to take him to the Golden Cross where he is to meet his fellow Pickwickians: namely, Mr. Snodgrass, Mr. Tupman, and Mr. Winkle.
On his way to the Golden Cross, Mr. Pickwick
engages the cab driver about the business of cab driving, all the while documenting the cab driver's answers in writing. Little does Mr. Pickwick realize that his note taking is being construed as an act of betrayal by the cab driver. Indeed, when they arrive at the Golden Cross and Mr. Pickwick attempts to pay, the cab driver rejects the fare and challenges Mr. Pickwick to a fight. Mr. Pickwick's friends come to Mr. Pickwick's aid but to no avail. The cab driver challenges them all to a fight, drawing a crowd which is by and large sympathetic to the cab driver whose contention is that Mr. Pickwick is an informant, a spy working for a higher authority whose goal is ultimately to discredit the cab driver and possibly to run him out of business. With the crowd staunchly behind him, the cab driver begins to physically assault Mr. Pickwick and his friends. The assault would have ended badly for Mr. Pickwick and his friends but for a stranger, "a tall thin young man in a green coat," who intervenes and drags Mr. Pickwick and his friends into the relative safety of a travelers' waiting room. There they share a drink and administer to Mr. Snodgrass' black eye with a beefsteak when a coachman enters to announce the impending departure of a coach destined for Rochester. As he is headed for Rochester, the stranger gets up to leave only to be joined by Mr. Pickwick and his friends who are likewise headed for Rochester.
During the journey to Rochester, the stranger learns that Mr. Pickwick is a philosopher of sorts, that Mr. Snodgrass is a poet of sorts, that Mr. Winkle is a sportsman of sorts, and that Mr. Tupman is a playboy of sorts. In turn, the Pickwickians learn that the stranger had had a romance with a Spanish lady with whom he had eventually married before she had prematurely died. The Pickwickians note all this down in their notebooks. Indeed, they are so delighted to be in the stranger's company that when they arrive at Rochester, the Pickwickians manage to have the stranger agree to meet them in the evening for dinner.
At dinner, the combination of wine drinking and the stranger's loquacity lull Mr. Snodgrass, Mr. Winkle, and Mr. Pickwick into a slumber. Meanwhile, due to a ball which is underway upstairs and which Mr. Tupman is eager to attend, Mr. Tupman is wide awake. He is unable to attend, however, as the stranger with whom he hoped to attend, doesn't have the proper clothing, and as what clothes Mr. Tupman could lend the stranger wouldn't fit (Mr. Tupman is fat; the stranger is thin) when it occurs to Mr. Tupman that the stranger would fit into Mr. Winkle's clothes. Thus they borrow a suit belonging to Mr. Winkle, who is asleep, and they attend the ball.
