Alfred Doolittle is a man of no morals and believes that life should be lived to the fullest. When we are first introduced to him in Act II, Shaw describes him as “an elderly but vigorous dustman” and “seems equally free from fear and conscience”. We find that he is a lazy drunk and used to beat Liza, his daughter. He has neglected her, allowing her to make her own living. Then, as soon as he sees the chance of making money out of her, he tries to blackmail Higgins and eventually sells her for five pounds. He never shows any interest in her and does not care what happens to her. Liza also doesn’t care what happens to her father. When we meet Doolittle again in Act V he is “dressed for a fashionable wedding”, in a morning suit and might even be the bridegroom.
