Second Stage

When meeting Mr.Pocket Pip also came across Mr.Drummle and Mr. Startop. These are two people who are quite opposite of each other, and are a good example of contrast in this book. They also join Pip at the Pocket's for tutoring, and have the extremes in personalities. Startop is very kind and fun to be around, and eventually becomes one of Pip's friends. While Drummel is very cruel and tends to shower people with his hatred and anger. But beyond this you know near nothing about their lives. You dont know their families, where they're from, reasons they're there in the first place. This is one great mystery, as are many other things in this book.
