Slim tells Curley that he can not tell his father about how he huet his hand and that they won’t tell either. This tells us that George wants Lennie to learn how to stick up for himself but he also cares for him and wants to help him.

Great responses everyone. I think there’s more to it than just liking each other. What else does it show?

Comment by Miss Fowler

I think that it also shows that Slim is sticking up for Lennie and defending him against Curly.

Comment by skatergirl55

I think that Slim said what he said to stick up for Lennie, so Lennie didn’t get in trouble. So to avoid this from happening, they told him to say that he got his hand caught in a machine.
