Part 1 Reflection

      Lennie is George's friend. Lennie is mentally ill and George is responsible for him. While they walk George talks to Lennie with foul language because he doesn't remember where they were going. When Lennie asked where they were going George said, " So you forgot that awready, did you? I gotta tell you again, do I? Jesus Christ, you're a crazy bas****!". George calls Lennie a bad name and shows little favor in Lennie even though Lennie tried to remember it. As they were walking George talks about how they went into Murray and Ready's and received bus tickets. When Lennie reached into his pocket he looked at George and said softly, " George ... I aint got mine. I musta lost it." George responded, " You never had none, you crazy bas****. I got both of 'em here. Think I'd let you carry your own work card?" This shows that George speaks to Lennie with foul language once again and he doesn't trust that Lennie can keep his work card safe. Later along the rode Lennie found a dead mouse but George confiscated it and through the mouse across the pool to the other side among the brush. When they got to the ranch to apply for a job George told Lennie to not say a word. George says to Lennie, "If he finds out what a crazy bas**** you are, we wont get no job, but if he sees ya work before he hears ya talk, we're set. Ya got that?". This shows that Lennie is a good worker and if he doesn't talk and just works maybe they could get the job.
