Hole In My Life, pg. 132-153

This is part of part 3. This chapter is called "face-to-face." He stayed at the hotel for three weeks waiting for his sentence. Jack noticed that he was being spied on, so he stayed in his room as much as possible. He called a couple college, and they asked for a sample piece of work. He started several ideas but could never finish one. He decided to meet up with Lucas. Jack dealed to Lucas and he seemed cool. Jack went to Lucas' house. His wife was home. She said Lucas and Jack would be sentenced on the same day. She was very setup with Jack and Lucas. Then, Jack went to the dock and found out the boat had been destroyed. Jack broke down and started crying. On his court date, he hide and got away from the spies and burned his leftover pot. He gave his stuff to the front desk at the hotel and told them someone would pick it up later.



This chapter is called "a long, long day." Jack and Al met up and went to court. Tepper says that Jack didn't cooperate. Al says that it wasn't Jack's fault. He was just hired to sail the boat. The judge asked Jack why. Jack said he made a mistake. Tepper reads a quote from the ship log in which Jack says he is scared of getting caught. The judge gave Jack a 5010B. Al says that Jack was going to jail. Once he was in jail, he would meet the parole board who will decide. He can be there for 60 days to 6 years. Then, Jack is taken away. The first night was the worst. He took a bus to jail. It was very somber on the bus. He was one of the first off; therefore, he got through faster and was one of the first to pick a bunk. In his cell, there were two bunks fell. One in a corner with the light in your face or one in the dark middle. He chose the first one. Lucas got the second bunk. The next day, Jack went to the bathroom when everyone was eating. A dude told Jack to check up on Lucas. Jack opened the stall and Lucas was sitting there naked. He had been raped. Jack was scared.



This chapters were so sad. When he got sentenced, I felt like I was being sent to jail. I won't ever forget Jack's story.
