The ending of Tuck Everlasting flashes ahead two weeks to Winnie sitting in her yard thinking about the night she helped Mae Tuck escape from jail. The reader learns that, on that night, Miles was able to take out the window, and Winnie and Mae switched places. Soon afterward, the constable came in to shutter the window but did not notice that a switch had been made, giving the Tuck family ample time to escape.

The next morning, the constable discovers the switch and angrily tells Winnie that, if she were older, she would be arrested for her actions. Winnie's parents come to get her and are shamed by the town. On a positive note, the children of the town now think that Winnie is someone worth being friends with, whereas before they thought she proved too boring.

What else can I help you with?
