Chapter 5: Tom is in church, and he bored out of his whits. He saw a fly during the prayer. He knew that if he caught it during the prayer, he would get in trouble, so when they said "amen," he quickly grabbed it. When His aunt say that he had it, she made him let it go. He got bored again, and took out his pincher bug. The first thing it did after he got it out is bite him, which made Tom drop it in the isle. He wanted to pick it up, but it was too far away. Then a dog came along and started to play with it. First he sniffed it, then he got closer, sniffed it, got closer, and finally touched it, and when it did, it pinched it's nose. The dog ran in a circle a couple of times, then went and tried to interest himself with the fly. He couldn't get any entertainment from that, so he finally just sat down. Turns out, he forgot all about the beetle, and sat on it. He jumped up, ran around the church a little bit, and flew out the window, with the beetle still on him.
Chapter 6: Tom goes over to hang out with Huckleberry Finn. Huck has a dead cat in his hands. He was swinging it and Tom asked him what it was for. Huck said, "Well, fer curin' warts, of course!" Tom wanted that cat, so he traded his recently-lost tooth for it. Those kids back then were WEIRD. I mean, who would want another guy's tooth, or a dead rat, or cat, or things people now days would throw away. But anyways, they traded, and then went separate ways. On the way home, Tom was caught being out that late, and had to take off his jacket and sit with the girls.
Chapter 7: OK, so, chapter 7. I'll just sum it up. Tom and the new girl (the one he showed off to) found out that they loved each other, they kissed, and Tom said that he couldn't wait to tell his other girlfriend. New girl starts crying, Tom tries to make her feel better by giving her a doorknob (once again, what is with these kids?!?!) she throws it on the floor. Tom gets mad and walks away, never to return.
