- the paining is painted by Norman Rockwell.
- in the painting, there is a police officer, a young boy, and a man behind the counter.
- thee is a chalkboard displaying the specials behind the counter.

- the painting depicts a different time period, mostly indicated by the clothes that the subjects are wearing and the decorations of the shop that they are in. today, the painting could be viewed as how times have changed. in our time, a kid that age would never be out, running away on their own, at least without getting very far.
- the man behind the counter works there. this one is simple. yes, he might be smoking a cigarette, but the way he is dressed closely resembles a kitchen worker.
- some would say that the police officer is scolding the child for running away, but it could also be viewed that the police officer and the kid both ended up at the lunch counter because they are both taking a moment to run away from their own responsibilities. it all depends on your point of view and how you choose to interpret the title and the work together.
