"You get all your facts!" [...] "you collect every f-ing fact there is in the world!" He plunged out the doors. (Knowles 177)
Finny fails to accept anything that opposes his separate peace. Finny told Gene that he was his best friend and has maintained this to be true for the duration of the story. Finny will not allow Gene to receive the blame that he deserves. When Brinker relentlessly pursues his suspicion of Gene and grows close to receiving the truth, Finny feels threatened that his peace may be infringed upon. Finny, unable to handle this flees to the stairs where he falls, along with his separate peace.
How will Brinker react to Finny’s misfortune? How will Gene react? Will there reactions oppose one another’s?
