The climax of the novel comes when Jurgis learns that Ona has been raped by one of her bosses and forced into prostitution. In a murderous mood, Jurgis attacks the boss, Connor, and is sentenced to thirty days in jail. As revenge, Connor ensures that all the family members lose their jobs. Helpless and starving, they are thrown out of their home. Soon, the frail and second-time pregnant Ona delivers prematurely, and she and the infant die. This is the beginning of the end of Jurgis' family.
