Since I last posted on the blog,  a lot of interesting things have happened in the story. The main and most important one is that the boy went to this pub and sees a mysterious man. (I am not sure whether you remember, but in one of the first chapters, Pip helped a convict, who escaped prison and gave him a file that he stole from his home.) The plot twist occurs when the man takes out the file (the exact same one) and stirs his drink with it. A few moments later, he also gives him a small amount of money. That really shocks the boy and makes him realise that the person, who is actually helping him become richer and a gentleman is not Miss Havisham, but the prisoner who he helped in the beginning of the book.

I think that Charles Dickens wanted to show the reader that when you help people, (no matter how big or small the favour is) you would most likely be awarded for it later. Even though, you shouldn't aid others only hoping to get something in return, most likely they will do something good for you in the future. That is also true about the opposite, once you harm someone, they will try to get revenge or something bad is going to happen to you (karma).

Here is a quote that I think is appropriate : "Don't worry about being a star, worry about doing good work, and all that will come to you."
