Herbert himself reveals that he is in love with a woman named Clara, though it must be kept secret because his mother would think he was marrying "below station." Analysis:Īlthough Pip continues to make decisions based on how he thinks society wants him to act - not going to see Joe and Biddy while he is home - we recognize the fact that he feels guilt and shame about these same decisions. Pip returns to London and talks to Herbert about Estella. This pleasant walk is disturbed by the Trabb boy who makes fun of Pip, imitating the snobbish way he walks and barking out, "Don't know yah!" to onlookers. Pip stays away from Joe and Biddy's house and the forge, but walks around town, enjoying the admiring looks he gets from his past neighbors. Pip mentions to Jaggers that Orlick may not be a trustworthy assistant to Miss Havisham and Jaggers tells Pip that he will see him fired. Pip and Jaggers return to the inn in town.
