Chapter 37

A pleasant interlude at Wemmick's home in Walworth. 

1)  Wemmick sets up Herbert at Pip's request. Pip says that he is glad his expectations have done someone some good. What does he mean by that? Don't his expectations do him some good?

2)  Here's a question: How is it that Pip sees fit to help out Herbert but does not help out Joe?

3) Compare Wemmick's public behavior to his private behavior at home.  What is Dicken's saying about society?  (Here's another example of satire).
