Archibald has always been nuisance (зануда). He was always finding fault with everything and everybody both at home and at work. An ill-natured creature, he grew worse and worse. When doctors discovered he had TB, all his enemies (not to mention his subordinates) welcomed news with sigh of relief. No longer was he going to pester them with stupid ideas and corny jokes. They hoped he would have to stay in bed for rest of his life. Archibald spent a month in hospital and then he was to go to sanatorium. He could choose one at seaside, but he said he hated Mediterranean and decided on sanatorium in Alps.
It did not take him long to become the best-hated man at sanatorium. All the nurses and doctors alike tried to avoid him. One day as he was lying in his deck chair Archibald caught sight of Doctor Mind.
“I say, Doc, I have the most unpleasant dreams in new room you gave me. Group of girls in swimming suits rush in, walk about the room and then run out again. I wake up tired and irritable!”
“Would you like girls to be dressed or would you like them to stay longer?” asked the doctor amused.
“I would like them not to slam door!” answered Archibald angrily.

Последний раз она была у Ребекки в школе, когда та заканчивала третий класс и уже вызывала серьезное беспокойство учителей.
Однажды вечером пятнадцатилетняя Ребекка с восемнадцатилетним приятелем по имени Клифтон Джилхерст поехали на такси. У парня был пистолет, и через несколько минут шофер такси был ранен выстрелом в голову. Спустя два дня он умер в больнице. На допросах каждый из подростков заявил, что стрелял другой.
Суд присяжных признал Ребекку виновной в убийстве, и ее приговорили к пожизненному заключению. США одна из немногих стран, где действует такой закон. Сегодня несовершеннолетние преступники, приговоренные к пожизненному заключению, есть еще в Израиле (7), Южной Африке
(4) и Танзании (1). В США их 2200 человек, 350 из них совершили преступления в возрасте 15 и моложе.
Преступность среди несовершеннолетних растет. В группу риска входят прежде всего те, кто не учится ни в школе, ни в колледже, у кого нет работы, потеряны связи с семьей и те, кто принимает наркотики.
