Will Do

From the Jessica Esch: Fill in the Blanks exhibition 

Original Statement:
"He looked up at this old friend (star) as if to say, "You see my predicament."

The star seemed to respond, "I see."

Abel next put the question: "What shall I do?"

The star seemed to answer, "You will do what you will do." For some reason this reply strengthened Abel's belief in himself.
