At the beginning of Chapter 21, the jury—along with Jem, Dill, and Scout—has heard the closing arguments from both sides. In his excitement, Jem inquires of his father, "We’ve won, haven’t we?" and later assumes that the jury will acquit the defendant, Tom Robinson. After a lengthy wait, however, there is a turn of events. Which of the following best assists readers in inferring that the jury will announce a unanimous guilty verdict? Scout’s dreamlike impression that matched what she knew about juries—that they never look at a defendant when they have voted to convict—gave a strong hint about the guilty verdict. The description of Atticus wiping the perspiration from his face in a previous chapter foreshadows this verdict. The reminder by Reverend Sykes that there was no record of a jury that had ever decided in favor of a colored man over a white man offers clues about the guilty verdict. Jem’s review of the evidence regarding Alabama’s laws in cases of rope, especially with women 18 and over, offers insight into the jury’s verdict.
