"Don't be a pinhead, he says. Remembering is just an invention of the mind.  I go, what's that supposed to mean?  It means that if you want to, you can remember anything, whether it happened or not."

This is words of the wiser because Kevin is telling Maxwell wise words.

I'm going," stop! I see you! I see you! Daddy,Please please stop, your killing her. and I know you killed her! I saw you! I saw you do it! You killed her and ill never, ever forget that." Then he talks about how he remembered when his dad killed his mom. It is a memory moment because he is going back and re living what happened to him many years ago. My question is how is this not affecting him if he loves his son why does he not feel bad for destroying his life

"They don't have to because I never forget it, no matter how much I try. No, he says, and his face is so close, I can feel the heat rising off him. Impossible, you can;t. You were wearing your brown corduroy trousers, I say, talking so fast, it makes me shake inside. And the black T-shirt with no sleeves. I tried to stop you and I couldn't, and you carried me back to my room and put me to bed and told me I was just dreaming."

Max had a flashback and told his father that he never forgot what his father did.

# data[].attributes.body
Aha moment- "Everything changes now" he says. "It's time I got to know my own son, who had his mind poisoned against me" This is a aha moment because he is told that he has been lied to all his life.

"Then killer Kane is screaming in this high scared voice. I thought killer Kane was  tough enough to not scream.

# data[].attributes.body
Tough question- The weird thing I keep thinking about, what if something happens when I get older and I turn out to be another accident of nature? This is a tough question because he thinks about a hard question that will change his feelings about himself.

"That's good boy. Now listen up. I, Kenneth David Kane, do swear by all that's Holy that I did not murder this boys mother. And if that isn't the truth may God strike me dead."
This is a Aha moment because I think that he did not kill Max's mom because if he did then why was he calling Gram and Grim geezers and if he really killed her he would feel so bad about killing his sons mother. Its a Aha moment for Max because he is starting to believe that he is innocent.

"I sit down in the old-lady chair  that's so soft,I almost sink to the floor and I'm wondering what happened to the cats. Maybe she took them with her, to visit her sister. Or maybe Iggy let them out and they can't get back in."

This is a tough question because max is asking himself a question, "And I'm wondering what happened to the cats."

"The crippled up kid belongs to Gwen. remember Gwen? Her and your wife were pals". They are talking about Kevin.

# data[].attributes.body
"Don't say a word boy. Not a sound" he whispers. "I came back, like i promised"
This is a aha moment because he realizes that his father came back.

# data[].attributes.body
"I think I hear the wind right there in the room. Except it's not the wind. Someone breathing. Someone who rises up darker than night, as big as the room, and puts a giant hand on my face and presses down. "Don't say a word, boy, he whispers. Not a sound." I try to move and shrink myself back into the bed, but the hand follows me down. The hand is so hard and strong I can't move, and it' feels like my heart has stopped beating, it's waiting to see what will happen next. I came back, he says, like I promised.
I think it is Maxwell's dad, Kenny Kane, or Killer Kane.

# data[].attributes.body
"When  I come back, something is wrong. Freaks face is all swollen up and hes making this huh-huh-huh noise. He cant talk, all he can do is look at me and try to say something with his eyes and i'm running to the nurse." What happened to Kevin why is he swelling up like that? If he has eaten it so many times why is he now getting harmed by it?It said that he loves that 'Gruel" but if he loves it then why is he getting a reaction to it now. Is his health decreasing?

# data[].attributes.body
" It feels like my heart has stopped beating, it's waiting to see what happens next. "I came back just like I promised". I think the person is Killer Kane.

Memory Moment: I cant really remember what Freak said except that he used so many big words, she had to keep looking up stuff in his dictionary, which she seemed to get a real kick out of, but the important thing is, whatever Freak told her,

# data[].attributes.body
Aha moment- "Hey is that Kenny Kane's boy? Must be. Old Killer Kane, is he still inside?" Freak is still holding tight to my shoulders and when they ask him for his name, he says, "We're Freak the Mighty, that's who we are.. We're nine feet tall if you haven't noticed"

# data[].attributes.body
"you sound like a car wreck, he says Here, you better put on this shirt so you don't glow in the dark." It is a Contrast and contradictions because why would his shirt glowing matter? Since Kevin is in the window then did he turn around or did he just know?

# data[].attributes.body
page 61, "I saw one of Tony D. punks  stuff it down there yesterday morning. Yeah? They must have stole it".It seems like Tony D.'s group takes a lot of things .

# data[].attributes.body
"I'm lying awake in the dark on a hot summer night and I'm thinking, Treasure in the sewer? What kind of quest is this huh? Is Freak completely making this up or what?"
He asked himself a hard question.

# data[].attributes.body
"Will it hurt, getting your parts replaced" Max asked. "Sure it will hurt but so what, pain is just a state of mind, you can think your way out of anything, even pain." Freak replied. This is words of the wiser because it changed Max's thought about pain.

# data[].attributes.body
"Freak is still holding tight to my shoulders and when they ask him for his name, he says, "We're Freak the Mighty, that's who we are. We're 9 feet tall, in case you haven't noticed. That's how we started, really, how we got to be Freak the Mighty.
It says "That's how we got to be.

"Blade goes,"Hey what?" and he moves right in front of Freak.'Want to say that again,little freak man?"
Freak says, "Cretin. C-R-E-T-I-N. Defined as one who suffers from mental deficiency". Why would Freak say that to a man who has been to court for almost killing a man? I knew Freak was strong but not that strong. He out smarted Blade by using his 'Smarty Pants" words. How was Max not like 'OHHHH" but i know Freak has gotten himself into a lot of trouble.

# data[].attributes.body
"You were the cutest little baby, Gwen says. I remember like it was yesterday. We were all living over in the tenements in those days, because the rent was so cheap we were all just starting out." This was a memory moment because it say "I remember".

# data[].attributes.body
"Books are like truth serum- if you don't read, you can't figure out what's real. This is a words of the wiser because Keven said that to Maxwell and he also never reads.

# data[].attributes.body
When freak said "what she means is, you're s spitting image of your old man (dad)." Its a memory moment because then the mother is talking about his dad then Max remembers back to his dad.

# data[].attributes.body

Example: “It’s more than just the way Maxwell resembles him, Grim says that night in the kitchen, the boy is like him, we’d better watch out, you never know what he might do while we are sleeping” (pg.3).
Explanation: This is an unexpected comment two grandparents would say about their own grandson. It appears they are scared of Max, or at the very least do not trust him. They focus on the fact that Max is really getting to look like his father, and perhaps he is also acting like him, too. I wonder if their feelings about Max are valid and true or it is just paranoia.
