They are opposites in class, character and appearance. Estella is a delicate lady who has a mean streak, Biddy is hardy and working class and kind. Despite Biddy being the nicer of the two, Pip still values Estella as she represents the life he aspires to.
On the way home, Pip meets Wopsle and is persuaded to join him and Pumblechook for the evening. When they head for home they come across Orlick who is waiting beside the road and says he has been to London. He points out that the guns at the hulks are firing, showing that a prisoner has escaped. On returning to the forge, Pip finds his sister unconscious. The argument and the fight put Orlick under suspicion. Suddenly, a group of men burst into the house and attack Orlick, who only just manages to escape.
The men are Herbert, Startop, and Trabb's boy. The boys untie Pip and take him to town. Instead of pressing charges, they decide it would be best to return to London immediately. Herbert tells Pip that he found the mysterious letter on the apartment floor and decided to chase after Pip. When they're back in London, Pip can't sleep at all and frankly isn't feeling too good, especially when he wakes up in the middle of the night thinking he he's overslept and that a whole day had passed. Okay, he's actually a little delirious.
But he manages to hold it together, and the next morning everything is ready to go. Jaggers Mr. Wopsle Mr. Copyrights Great Expectations from BookRags. All rights reserved. Toggle navigation. Sign Up. Sign In.
