Chapter 7 – Plot, “How to Talk to Girls at Parties,” Question #9

Q: What is an example of foreshadowing for Vic’s climactic encounter?

A: In the exposition, the beginning of the story, Vic is shown to be a young man who does not care about society’s morals as demonstrated by his disregard for the law. Enn describes this memory. Enn says, “I had been there when Vic had slipped one of those magazine beneath his sweater, but the owner caught him on the pavement outside and made him give it back” (pg. 132, para. 12). This instance shows that Vic does not care about consequences. If he wants something, he will take it, and the pornographic magazine symbolizes his general attitude in how he perceives women as objects to be taken.
