He realizes on a page in the book (sorry i forget the exact page) that it's bad to prey on the weak when he tells Lennie to jump in the water. George helps him out and Lennie gives thanks to George and completely forgets that George was the one that told him to jump in the water the first place. From then on he never pulled any pranks on him. Hope this helps a bit!
