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 are the characters traits in Tuck Everlasting?

Winnie Foster Winnie Foster is the 10-year-old main protagonist of the novel. Unhappy with how overprotective her family is, Winnie runs away from home and is taken in by the Tucks, an eccentric family of immortal humans. As the novel progresses, Winnie is faced with her fair share of conflicts; however, perhaps the most important is her internal conflict over immortality. Despite her young age, Winnie finds herself having to think about life and death, and whether eternal life is worth the risk of eternal unhappiness. Jesse Tuck Jesse Tuck is the first member of the Tuck family whom Winnie encounters. She finds him drinking from a spring which he refuses to let her drink from, and is immediately captivated by him. Jesse stopped aging at age 17 and is therefore described as very good-looking, despite being 104. Jesse enjoys immortality unlike his father, and later in the novel he gives Winnie some water from the spring so that she may become immortal. However, Winnie chooses not to drink it. Angus Tuck Angus Tuck is the leader of the Tuck family, the husband of Mae and the father of Jesse and Miles. He wishes he and his family had never become immortal and, unlike his son Jesse, longs for death. Upon seeing Winnie’s grave at the end of the novel, Angus seems to be relieved that she chose mortality. Mae Tuck Mae Tuck is Angus’s wife and the mother of Jesse and Miles. She is gentle and kind. Mae seems to be realistic about her and her family’s situation, and tells Angus that there is no use longing for death when it is unattainable. Mae is also the one to attack (and kill) the man in the yellow suit when he threatens to take over the spring, sell the water, and force Winnie to drink the water and become immortal. For her actions, Mae ends up in jail, but Winnie and the rest of the Tucks break her out. Mae is with Angus at the end of the novel when he visits Winnie’s grave. Miles Tuck Miles Tuck is Mae and Angus’s older son. After realizing that Miles does not age, his wife and children abandoned him. Although he does not seem to loathe immortality as much as his father, he also does not seem to appreciate it as much as Jesse does. When Miles takes Winnie fishing, he talks to her about immortality and how although it might seem like a pretty good deal, it isn’t really all it’s cracked up to be. The Man in the Yellow Suit The man in the yellow suit is the main antagonist of the novel. After witnessing the Tucks “kidnapping” Winnie, the man starts formulating his evil plots to gain land and money. Later in the novel, the man steals the Tucks’ horse and returns to the Fosters’ home, where he makes Winnie’s parents give up their land in exchange for Winnie’s safety. Since the spring is on the Fosters’ land, he now possesses the spring, and plans to sell the water to the public in addition to forcing Winnie to drink some. In response, Mae Tuck kills him by hitting him over the head with a shotgun. The Constable The constable arrests Mae when she kills the man in the yellow suit. However, as he seems to be rather absent-minded, she is able to be broken out easily by Winnie and the rest of the Tucks. Winnie's Father Winnie's father is a well-to-do man who owns the woods near the family home. He is so concerned about his daughter's disappearance that he offers to give the man in the yellow suit the woods in order for her safe return. Winnie's Grandmother Winnie's grandmother is a stern woman who insists on order and good behavior, and supervises Winnie closely when she plays in the yard. She shows a gentler side when she charmingly refers to a tune she hears in the evening as elf music. Winnie's Mother Winnie's mother is a strict and tidy woman who insists that the home is kept neat and that Winnie stay out of trouble.
