Day: 24 November 2015

Pip goes to school. Pip meets Biddy. She runs a store. A few nights later, Pip writes a letter to Joe. Joe explains that his father was an alcoholic and beat his mother often. Joe was forced to work as a little boy to support his dad’s drinking habit, and, thus, never had time for school. Joe insists he wants to adopt Pip. He goes and does chores while he gets kicked out.

Pip doesn’t tell Joe about the convict. Joe carries Pip home. They think the convict entered the house and stole the pork-pies.

As pip runs towards the door, the soldiers want Joe to fix their handcuffs. Pip climbs on Joe’s back and they head out to the marshes. Suddenly, Pip starts getting worried of his convict as he didn’t want anything to happen to him. Pip finds his convict fighting another convict and his convict recognises Pip. He tells them that he took the pies. The convicts are then taken away.
