have done some things in his life that were
questionable, but when it comes down to
what really matters, he always put others first
– like Mrs. Willoughby, the sick child, and even
Jimmy the Narrator. And that’s the most
admirable quality there is.

lesson again from Doc Marlowe. He said some
things that may have been considered lies, but

it becomes clear that his positive and generous
actions outweighed his words in every tale the
narrator told. Thanks for the lesson, Doc.
