Don't let him pull you in—but—if the son-of-a-bitch socks you—let 'im have it.
“Let 'im have what, George?” “Never mind, never mind. I'll tell you when.”
“I hate that kind of a guy. Look, Lennie, if you get in any kind of trouble, you remember what I told you to do?”
Lennie raised up on his elbow. His face contorted with thought.
Then his eyes moved sadly to George's face. “If I get in any trouble, you ain't gonna let me tend the rabbits.”
“That's not what I meant. You remember where we slep' last night? Down by the river?”
“Yeah. I remember. Oh, sure I remember! I go there an' hide in the brush.”
“Hide till I come for you. Don't let nobody see you. Hide in the brush by the river. Say that over.”
“Hide in the brush by the river, down in the brush by the river. If you get in trouble.” “If I get in trouble.”
A brake screeched outside. A call came, “Stable Buck. Oh! Sta-able Buck.”
George said, “Say it over to yourself, Lennie, so you won't forget it.”
