• B. Cole knew these words guaranteed him a terrible beating the next time he was alone, but he still taunted his father with a smirk. (pg 48).

• C. His anger had so clouded his thinking, he hadn’t considered the incoming tide (pg 41).

Choose any of the quotes below that show that Cole is not ready to change.

• A. Cole stood but refused to hold his parents’ hands. He folded his arms defiantly across his chest, causing a break in the circle.

• C. Cole’s guard entered the room and took hold of Cole’s elbow, motioning toward the door. Cole jerked his arm free. “I can walk by myself.”
