What comic incident is related in this chapter and what function does it serve in the novel?

Answer 1

The comedic incident in chapter 27 is when Scout jokes about Bob Ewelling being fired from his job for being lazy. Another comedic incident is when Jem tries to show Scout his armpit hair. This incident shows how innocent and young the two are.

Answer 2

In chapter 6 of "Pride and Prejudice," Mr. Collins proposes to Elizabeth Bennet in a humorous and awkward manner, serving as a comic incident in the novel. This event highlights Mr. Collins' absurd character and emphasizes the societal pressure for women to marry for financial security rather than love. Additionally, Elizabeth's rejection of Mr. Collins' proposal showcases her strong-willed and independent nature.

Answer 3

The Barbers had all of the furniture in their household put in the basement on Halloween. It shows how Maycomb is sometimes too trusting. No one ever locks up at night. It also shows the lack of discipline some of the children in Maycomb have.

Answer 4

Jem finds a hair in his armpit. In his effort to show it off to Scout, she can't even see it. The conversation goes into a 'where is it?' discussion and we see the innocence and excitement of puberty for one, while the other is not quite repulsed but has a 'whatever' type attitude.

The reader, being old enough to understand puberty, has to laugh. He's proud of something so minimal.

This lightens the mood after all the intensity of the news of Tom's death, the children and adults in the Finch home dealing with it in their varied ways, and this growing feeling that Bob Ewell is out to get someone and we have yet to learn who.

It it put in a pretty crafty spot because it takes away suspense just before there is about to be a lot of suspense in the last half of chapter 28.
