Chapter 22

When Holden came back into the room Phoebe had the pillow off of her head, but all she kept saying was "daddys going to kill you. Holden said he wont becuase he is going to go away and work on a ranch. Then Phoebe asked him why he got kicked out of Pency.Then Holden starts talking about all the phonies there and tells a story of this old guy that came and wanted to find his name that he had written in the bathroom. He said it depressed him. Then Phoebe told him that he hates everything. he said he didnt and then she told him to think of something he likes a lot. Instead he started thinking about the two nuns he met and this boy that went to one of his old schools that jumped out the window because some boys were trying to make him take back something he said and he wouldnt. Then Phoebe asks him again and he says that he liked Allie and talking to her. she said that didnt count because Allie was dead and then Holden starts to get mad and says that just become someone dies doesnt mean that you dont like them.Next Phoebe asked him what he wants to be. He starts talking about when he heard the little boy singing, he had it wrong though it was "if a body meet a body coming through the rye." Then he told a story and said he wanted to be the catcher in the rye. when hes done all phoebe said was daddys going to kill you. Holden decideds that he wants to call one of his english teachers from Elkton Hills so he leaves the room to go call him.

Holdens parents are going to be very angry and disappointed when they find out he got kicked out of Pency. You can tell because Phoebe keeps repeating and repeating that their dad is going to kill Holden. Phoebe is a very smart child, she knows that Holden hates everything and he pretty much confirms that when he said the only things he liked were Allie and talking to Phoebe.
