Huck lives with Mrs. Watson, but Huck escapes to chill with Tom Sawyer, cuz Mrs. Watson is so boring. They decide to make a gang to rob and kill people. Huck’s dad was sitting in his room like a creeper when he comes back, and asks him for money. Yo Huck ! Imma make a gang n rob and kill people! Yo dat’s dope Tom! I’m with dat boi!
Pap kidnapped Huck. He kinda likes living with him but Pap was a violent drunk. So, Huck fakes his death and leaves to Jackson island. After a while, Huck meets up good ol’ Jim, who also escaped from Mrs. Watson because he heard that she was gonna sell him. Boi you need ta give me some Benjamins so I can get tipsy! I'm glad you alive boi! I thought you was a goner. You must be outchya mind old man! Well it’s good to get out to the real life.
Later, Huck and Jim become homies, and soon they kicked back in a cave high up on the island. Then a storm came and they found a house floating down the river. They go in the house to grab some grub when they found a dead body. Jim, I never notice how much of a friend you were to me. Yea, we is homies yo!
Huck goes to find out if there are any news about him and Jim, so he dresses up as a girl, but the lady figures out that he is a boy. Haha! Boi, you look like a fooo! #$#$#$Y)()!@$(*&#*!
Huck and Jim go down the Mississippi River. They stop to go on an abandoned steam boat, and three bandits are on it. So, Huck and Jim have to steal their raft to escape. Yo lets grab some goodies boi! Yo dats a dope plan! Imma done with dat!
Huck and Jim get separated in a dense fog. Once the are reunited, Huck plays Jim by saying that they were never separated, and tells him that it was all a dream. Jim was like ‘smdh Huck’. Huck’s like ‘my bad’ and this is of importance in the book cuz Huck realizes that Jim cares for him and also realizes that he cares for Jim. I coulda sworn I just heard my name… Hey yo Jim! Where you go!?!
They accidentally pass Cairo and on the way down the river, a steamboat destroys their raft and they dived under it and got separated AGAIN! Huck then he makes his way the Grangerford’s house, where he meets Buck. The Grangerfords have been a very long feud with them Sheperdsons, which began when Sophia elopes with a Grangerford dude. Buck dies during a shootout. THEM SHEPERDSONS!!
Huck reunites with Jim, and they continue on down the river, when they meet two con men, the duke and the king. Oh Yea?!? Well Imma prince! Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah! Imma King! Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!
The duke and the king practiced Shakespearean plays. They arrive at Arkansas and they see Colonel Sherburn shoot a harmless drunk. A lynch mob goes after Sherburn but he tells them that they’re not man enough to do it. DIE! Ya stupid drunk!
The duke and the dauphin Shakespearean play was a total bust, so people started throwing raw fruit and dead cats. They have another scheme when they go to Mr. Wilk’s funeral and claim to be long lost brothers and heirs. They sell slaves and liquidate the land, but Huck rats them to the one of the sisters. Half off today ladies and gents!!
Huck then meets up with Tom, but Tom thinks that Huck is a ghost. Huck goes to the Phelp’s house, and he pretends to be Tom Sawyer visiting his family, and Tom Sawyer pretends to be his little brother, Sid. HUCK! Is tha really you…or are you a ghost!?!
Jim is being kept prisoner in a shed, and Huck wants him to be set free. They escape and Tom was shot in the leg. They had to the doctor, but the doctor turns Huck and Jim in. Aunt Polly arrives and exposes who Huck and Tom are. She says that Jim was free in Mrs. Watson’s will when she died. Huck just escaped for the adventure. Oh thank ya Jesus! Huck is safe!
RACE “And his Aunt Polly she said Tom was right about old Miss Watson setting Jim free in her will; and so, sure enough, Tom Sawyer had gone and took all that trouble and bother to set a free nigger free! and I couldn't ever understand before, until that minute and that talk, how he COULD help a body set a nigger free with his bringing-up” (Twain 321). Even after Jim has displayed incredible loyalty and selflessness, Huck is still too embedded in a racist environment to believe that a proper boy could help free a slave.
FRIENDS “Like as not we got to be together a blamed long time on this h-yer raft, Bilgewater, and so what's the use o' your bein' sour? It 'll only make things on-comfortable. It ain't my fault I warn't born a duke, it ain't your fault you warn't born a king – so what's the use to worry? Make the best o' things the way you find 'em, says I – that's my motto. This ain't no bad thing that we've struck here – plenty grub and an easy life – come, give us your hand, duke, and le's all be friends” (Twain 148). While Huck and Jim’s friendship grows organically, the duke and the king create an artificial bond with one another as simply a means to an end. Another difference is that the cons’ friendship is beneficial to each of them, while Huck and Jim’s friendship actually creates problems for the two of them throughout the novel.
“The duke done it, and Jim and me was pretty glad to see it. It took away all the uncomfortableness and we felt mighty good over it, because it would a been a miserable business to have any unfriendliness on the raft; for what you want, above all things, on a raft, is for everybody to be satisfied, and feel right and kind towards the others” (Twain 148). Huck recognizes the importance of camaraderie in any group
FAMILY "Yes, he's got a father, but you can't never find him these days. He used to lay drunk with the hogs in the tanyard, but he hain't been seen in these parts for a year or more." (Twain 8). Huck’s separated father stands in difference to the widow, demonstrating that blood family isn’t always real family in this novel.
"AIN'T you a sweet-scented dandy, though? A bed; and bedclothes; and a look'n'-glass; and a piece of carpet on the floor – and your own father got to sleep with the hogs in the tanyard. I never see such a son. I bet I'll take some o' these frills out o' you before I'm done with you. Why, there ain't no end to your airs – they say you're rich. Hey? – how's that?" (Twain 21). Pap tries to instill his own values in Huck, even though they are not best for his son. It’s not clear whether Pap just wants Huck to emulate him, or if he’s some way jealous of Huck’s ability to move up in society. We’re thinking it’s probably some combination of the two.
