The bunkhouse is an unadorned building where the men sleep on “burlap ticking” and keep their few possessions in apple boxes that have been nailed to the walls. He wonders if George is taking advantage of a man who lacks the faculties to take care of himself. George replies that Lennie is his cousin and was kicked in the head by a horse when he was young, so George has to look out for him. Once the boss leaves the bunkhouse, George berates Lennie for having spoken up. Candy overhears George telling Lennie that he is glad they are not actually related. George warns Candy that he doesn’t appreciate other people sticking their noses in his business, but Candy assures him that he minds his own business and has no interest in their affairs.

Slim has agreed to give one of the pups to Lennie, and George thanks him for his kindness, insisting that Lennie is “dumb as hell,” but is neither crazy nor mean.George admits he pushed Lennie around, getting him to do ridiculous things, such as jumping into a river even though he didn’t know how to swim. After watching his friend nearly drown, George felt ashamed of his behavior. Since that day, he has taken good care of his companion, protecting him even when he gets in trouble.Lennie comes into the bunkhouse, carrying his new puppy under his coat. George berates him for taking the little creature away from its mother. As Lennie returns the puppy to the litter, Candy and Carlson appear. Carlson begins to complain again about Candy’s dog, saying that it stinks and that it “ain’t no good to himself.” He urges Candy to shoot the animal. Candy replies that he has had the dog for too many years to kill it, but Carlson continues to pressure him. Eventually Slim joins in, suggesting that Candy would be putting a suffering animal out if its misery. Curley attacks him. He throws several punches, bloodying Lennie’s face, and hits him in the gut before George urges Lennie to fight back. On George’s command, Lennie grabs Curley’s right hand and breaks it effortlessly. ]]> 2021-10-13 14:45:22 UTC https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1814192825 assims966 https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1814210010 Lennie kills the puppy he got from slim. Lennie forgets his promise to keep the farm a secret and begins to babble cheerfully about the place that he and George will buy someday. Crooks does not believe him, he tells him that it's not going to happen. Curley’s wife asks the boys where was her husband, she knows the men went to a whorehouse, she said that “they left all the weak ones here.” Crooks insists that she leave before he tells the boss about her wicked ways, and she responds by asking if he knows what she can do to him if he says anything.George tells Candy off for talking about their farm in front of other people. When Lennie and George l leave Crooks, he changes his mind about going to the farm with them, calling out, “I wouldn’ want to go no place like that.”]]> 2021-10-13 14:50:27 UTC https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1814210010 assims966 https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1819817760 Lennie was all alone in his barn with the dead puppy. He was stroking the dead puppy that he killed because he was petting to hard.He decides to tell George that he found it dead but then realizes that George will see through this lie. Frustrated, he curses the dog for dying. Lennie said George wouldn't care because the puppy meant nothing to George. Lennie tells Curley's wife that he likes to touch soft things with his fingers. She say that she likes the same thing, and offers to let him stroke her hair. She warns him not to “muss it,” but he quickly becomes excited and holds on too tight, frightening her. When she cries out, Lennie panics and clamps his strong hands over her mouth to silence her. The more she struggles, the tighter his grip becomes, and he shakes her until her body goes limp. Lennie has broken her neck.He tries to bury Curley’s wife in the hay, worrying chiefly that George will be angry with him. Lennie leave with the puppy and goes and hide in the brush. ]]> 2021-10-15 14:48:53 UTC https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1819817760 assims966 https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1819849402 Lennie is at the brush where George told him to go to. His Aunt Clara appears “from out of Lennie’s head” she tells Lennie off for not listening to George, for getting himself into trouble, and for causing so many problems for his only friend. Then a gigantic rabbit appears to him, also speaking in Lennie’s own voice, and tells him that George will probably beat him and abandon him. Lennie asks George to tell the story of their farm.The noises of men in the woods come closer, and George tells Lennie to take off his hat and look across the river while he describes their farm. He tells Lennie about the rabbits, and promises that nobody will ever be mean to him again. “Le’s do it now,” Lennie says. “Le’s get that place now.” George agrees. He raises Carlson’s gun, which he has removed from his jacket, and shoots Lennie in the back of the head. Lennie falls to the ground. ]]> 2021-10-15 15:03:09 UTC https://padlet.com/assims966/oc5eeli91h4rhl9t/wish/1819849402
