Summary: Holden goes back to the apartment and finally get Phoebe to listen to him. He explains why he got expelled and tells her everything that he disliked about school. She tells him to name something he likes since he has been negative during the whole conversation. All he thinks about are the nuns and he says he likes Allie. Phoebe says that Allie doesn't count as something he can like because he is dead. When she asks him what he wants to do with his life he says he wants to be a catcher in the rye. The only grown up adult in a field of rye where children play. He would stand by a cliff and catch them when they fell.
Response: Talking to Phoebe again was a great idea and he should be thankful that she listened to him. Being a catcher in the rye as he explains seems unrealistic but at least he has something in mind.
