Quote: "He saw Mrs. Dalton lift her right hand and he knew that she meant for Mr. Dalton to stop questioning him so closely. He felt her shame"(153).
Significance: This quote is significant because this shows how much the Dalton's trust him. Mrs. Dalton is trying to protect Bigger and stop Mr. Dalton from questioning him because she thinks he did nothing wrong. Bigger does not even care that the Dalton's are protecting him. They do care about him and all he cares about is protecting himself from getting caught. The Dalton's have done nothing to hurt him so why should he be doing this to them. Bigger is changing. He believes that the white people cannot control him anymore and that he is equal to them or even one up then they are, but if he keeps lying like this he will not be anything except in jail and probably killed.
Question: What is going to happen to Jan?
