The internal conflict in "Contents of a Dead Man's Pocket" by Jack Finney is the protagonist's struggle between his ambition for success and his fear of failure. Tom Benecke must decide whether to risk his life to retrieve a piece of paper containing his important work notes from outside his apartment window. The external conflict is Tom's battle against the forces of nature and the physical challenges he faces while attempting to reach the paper on the narrow ledge. Both conflicts drive the plot and highlight the theme of the importance of human connection over material success.
