Holden calls up for Sunny This show how dspereate Holden is getting. He isn’t even getting that desperate about having sex but about getting that mental connection. He can’t go though with it at the end.

Standing Up for the 5 Dollars He stands up for only five dollars to Maurice a big guy who knocks him right over. A guy who wouldn’t even fight from 20$ doesn’t care about getting hurt and so he stands up.

Going out with Sally Hayes Sally is hot but not Holden’s type. He knoews this but still feels like he wants to spend the rest of his life with her. He is totally attracted to her.. He still ends up calling her a pain in the ASS

Invites Carl Luce to the Wicker Bar Despite his blow-up with Sally, Holden's still in search of some human companionship. He calls Jane, but doesn't get an answer, then he calls Carl Luce. Carl tries to have a good conversation but Holden is to immature and so Carl leaves,

Goes to Central Park He leaves the bar and heads in the direction of Central Park, to investigate the lagoon for traces of the ducks. He drops Phoebe's record on the way, breaking it into a bunch of tiny pieces. The pond is partly frozen, and although Holden does a thorough investigation, nearly falling into the water a few times, there are no ducks to be found. lagoon Phoebe's record

Goes home to visit Phoebe he makes it up to his parents' apartment without attracting too much attention. Holden finally wakes Phoebe up, she's obviously thrilled to see him. She chatters about the Christmas play she's going to be in. she gets around to asking why Holden's home on Saturday and realizes he's obviously gotten kicked out of school again.

Has a good conversation with Phoebe This conversation even though Phoebe was ignoring the fact or just not noticing that Holden was reaching for a connection. She gives him good advice. He evens says that if possible he wanted to be a Catcher in the Rye.

Goes to Mr. Antolini’s House He really liked Mr. Antolini, He was his favorite English teacher. It’s a good thing he goes because Mr. Antolini is worried for Holden and gives Holden a bunch of advice. Very good advice.

Wipes of “F U” This shows how Holden is really trying to preserver the innocence of the people. He even makes that comment of being able to freeze moments in time. After seeing that profanity written the 3 rd time I think Holden realizes that he really can’t don’t much about. He can’t change the whole world. I think this was sort of his beginning of understanding.

Up at the Mental Hospital This is where he ends up after talking to his sister and deciding not to go west. This is also after seeing her sister on the carrousel and this makes him come to a new conclusion about innocence and childhood. And he signs off and the last place he’s at is the Mental Hospital.
