behold skits

Three parts in the novel I would like to see become skits are first, when Magwitch reveals who he is to Pip in Pip's house/lodging. This is a good part but there are limited parts for people to play. Another part, is the case of Jaggers when Jaggers is defending Molly for the murder. This is also a good part but sort of limited although people could play the people in the jury. One last part for a skit could be when Pip meets Miss Havisham for the first time in her manor. This is a good part because the acting could be really funny(Havisham) but then again there would be very limited parts

behold another question

This week, I became confused with a certain character who is still unidentified to me. He was the man in the corner of Pip's lodging, hidden in the shadows, who Pip tripped over. This is when Abel, or "Provis," is at Pip's lodging as well. This occurs on page 326 at the first page of chapter 40. Thank you

behold the question about great expectations

There were two questions I came across. One, was who was the Avenging Phantom, this was answered. The second question I came across was who is Mr. Waldengarver. I was confused about this because the narrations were talking about Wopsle, and what Woplse was doing, then all of a sudden out of the blue there is this Mr. Waldengarver. I was very confused at this point. "We made all the haste we could downstairs, but we were not quick enough either. Standing at the door was a Jewish an with an unnatural heavy smear of eyebrow, who caught my eyes as we advanced, and said, when we came up with him: "Mr. Pip and friend?" Identity of Mr. Pip and friend confessed. "Mr. Waldengarver," said the man, "would be glad to have the honour." page 256 chapter 31 This part confused me because suddenly Woplse (I thought) disappeared and this new man, Mr. Waldengarver, had appeared out of the blue.
