Great Expectations Chapter Twenty-Five Summary

  • Pip goes to dinner at Wemmick’s house and it is better than Disney world. Seriously. It puts Cinderella’s chateaux to shame.
  • Wemmick has built his own castle in a part of town called Walworth. The "castle" is the size of a little house, but it has a flagpole, a moat, and a drawbridge. What more could anyone want (besides a rooftop Jacuzzi and a whole box of popsicles)?
  • Wemmick asks Pip if he wouldn’t mind meeting the Aged. Pip wonders if he’s referring to cheese. Wemmick introduces Pip to his father, a very energetic though completely deaf man.
  • Wemmick treats the Aged with utmost respect, and the Aged loves to be nodded at. Wemmick and Pip spend a good half hour nodding their heads at the Aged.
  • Pip begins to see that the Wemmick at home is very different from the Wemmick at the office. He is almost a completely different person.
  • They have a great time in the castle.
