Chapter 34: We Cheer Up Jim (graphic novel pg. 55)
 Huck and Tom plan to help Jim escape. Huck’s plan is simple: Steal the key from Silas, sneak Jim out in the middle of the night, and escape down the river with the raft. Huck is disappointed when
Tom says he wants to help with the escape. He thought that since Tom came from a better family, he would know better than to break the law by helping a slave.
 Tom wants a more elaborate and exciting (or dangerous and impractical) plan: The boys will dig
Jim out from the _______________________. Tom also tricks another slave into thinking that witches are playing with his hearing (similar to what he did to Jim at the beginning of the book).
Chapter 35: Dark, Deep-Laid Plans (graphic novel pg. 56)
 Tom continues to plot a more exciting escape because “there’s more honor in getting him out through a lot of difficulties and dangers, where there warn’t one of them furnished to you by the people who it was their duty to furnish them, and you had to contrive them all out of your own head” (335). He considers building a moat, sawing Jim’s leg off, making a rope ladder, and having
Jim keep a journal.
 Tom is frustrated with Huck’s practical reasoning. He says, “It ain’t no use to try to learn you nothing, Huck” (343).
Chapter 36: Trying to Help Jim (graphic novel pg. 56)
 Tom decides they can “__________________” (or pretend) about some aspects of the escape. For example, they can pretend it took 37 years.
 Tom still thinks Huck is inferior: “It might answer for you to dig Jim out with a pick, without any letting on, because you don’t know no better” (346).

 Jim goes along with the plan, allowing that Huck and Tom “[are] white folks and knowed better than him” (348).
Chapter 37: Jim Gets His Witch Pie
 Tom and Huck continue to steal escape supplies from the Phelps: sheets, shirts, candlesticks, spoons, etc. Tom purposefully confuses his Aunt Sally.
 The boys make a “witch pie” for Jim; they bake escape supplies into the pie. Tom wants Jim to keep a journal, so they give him tin plates to write on.
Chapter 38: “Here a Captive Heart Busted”
 Tom writes some lines down for Jim to copy. They are meant to imitate lines by famous prisoners in books and history. One line says, “Here, homeless and friendless, after thirty-seven years of bitter captivity, perished a noble stranger, natural son of Louis XIV” (362)—similar to the lies of the King and the Duke!
 Tom thinks Jim should tame rattlesnakes or rats; he needs some pets in his cell. Jim argues that he doesn’t see the purpose in any of this, and he doesn’t want the “glory” that would come from an adventurous escape. Tom doesn’t care. According to Huck, “…Tom most lost all patience with him; and said he was just loadened down with more gaudier chances than a prisoner ever had in the world to make a name for himself, and yet he didn’t know enough to appreciate them, and they was just about wasted on him. So Jim he was sorry, and said he wouldn’t behave so no more”
(368).

(Jim), but he gets no response because it was just a story made up by the King.
 Tom decides to up the ante by writing warnings to the family. The first warning simply warns that
“trouble is brewing” (374). The second claims to be written by _____________________________________, informing the family that robbers will be coming for Jim. In the letter, Tom says he will make a sheep sound when the robbers are in the ash-hopper, and the family can lock them up and kill them.
