As Jem and Scout walked to the high school for the pageant, it was pitch black and Cecil Jacob jumped out and frighten the two of them. Before the performance, Cecil and Scout wondered around, playing games, until Ms Meriweather called them to the stage. Everything went fine but Scout fell asleep to her lecture to the audience and was late for her entrance. She was mad and claimed Scout ruined the performance, Jem told her that it was fine and added some humor to it.
After the pageant, the two were walked back home through the school year when Scout realizes she forgot her shoes, Jem said they could go get them tomorrow. Then they heard a noise following them in the dark. Shortly the two were jumped by a man who fight and pulled Jem to the ground, breaking his arm and knocking him unconscious. Then the man grabbed Scout, trying to crush her to death. Another mysterious figure comes to aid of the two children. After the fight was over, the figure carried Jem home and Scout ran barefoot to the house. The doctor and sheriff was called. Jem was examined and after the doctor left, the sheriff explained to Atticus that Bob Ewell was the one who attacked his kids, and that he had been killed in the fight with a kitchen knife to the chest. Scout explained everything she could remember and realized who saved both her and Jem.... reclusive Boo Radley had saved their lives and was standing in the room with them all.
