The test “ on the sidewalk bleeding” related to changing perspective by Andy and his view on belonging to the royals. At the start he his proud to be a royal but then at the end he realises that the jacket was the reason he was dying and then didn’t think much of being a royal at all, he hated the idea now. Also the fact that he didn’t think he was dying but towards the end he starts to realise he actually is.

Original perspective; that being part of the royals is the best thing ever, Also that he wasn’t dying, he had just bee gushed, nothing to big at all.
Transformation; When everyone who stopped and seen Andy hurt on the ground, there reaction was “ oh, he’s a royal” and therefore didn’t help him. Also after the amount of blood that coming out him he started to think he might actually be dying.
Changed perspective; he didn’t want to be a royal anymore because that’s who everyone saw he was instead of just Andy and he wanted to be just Andy. Also the fact that he came to realise he was dying now.
