1)" he had gotted away with everything. i felt a sudden stab of disappointment. that was because i just wanted to see some more excitement;that must have been it"(28)

2) In this quote the narrator(Gene)is telling us that he was disappointed that Finny didn't get into trouble and he is assuring himself that he was disappointed because he was expecting for the first time Finny might get caught and that there might be some excitment. this is a forshadowing that Gene might cause the breaking point in their friendship with his envy for Finny because its alright to envy a friend as long as you tell them about it, but Gene doesn't and that will cause their friendship to break. Gene is not secure with himself and thats why he does everything Finny tells him to do because he is afraid tabout what Finny might think about him if he didn't do it.

3) Does Finny ever envy Gene in anyway? Will he also be the reason for their breking point in their friendship?
