1. The first event was when Jack decided that he was going to take the drugs to New York. This impacted his life because this was the first event that led to him getting arrested.

2. The second event was when Jack got arrested and went to court. This impacted him because he realized just how stupid it was to sell drugs, and he knew he was in a lot of trouble.

3. The third event was when he got out of jail and went back to where he buried his drugs before he got arrested. This was impactful because it showed the growth over the time he was in jail because he didn’t want to dig it back up.

this song connects to the book because he kind of acts like he's going crazy before he gets released from jail. Also it talks about going away for sometime which he had to do when he went to jail. Another connection is that in the song it talks about his connection to his mom and Jack also had a connection with his mom before he went to jail.
