1. The obvious one is when Gene jounces the limb knocking
Finny out of the tree. This is when Gene realizes the resentment he holds for his best
friend.
2. Another important one takes place when Finny
coaxes Gene into skipping class to go to the beach overnight. Though it is a fun
experience, it comes at a great expense to Gene because he can't study for his test and
bombs it. This is when he starts thinking that Finny isn't looking out for his best
interests like a best friend should.
3. Finally, when Gene
visits Finny at his house to confess he jounced the limb on purpose, Finny gets angry
and starts yelling at him. Finny is in denial that his bes friend would purposely hurt
him. Because of this, the boys don't get closure on the incident and their relationship
remains strained.
