1. What story does Enfield tell when he and Utterson pass the door? What does hearing
the story cause Utterson to do?
2. After their meeting, what do Enfield and Utterson both suspect about the relationship
between Jekyll and Hyde? What evidence does the text give for this suspicion?
3. What two pieces of information does Utterson learn about Hyde’s letter to Jekyll? What do you predict that Utterson will do to help his old friend, who he suspects is in serious trouble? Justify your answer on the basis of evidence from the text
Critical thinking:
All of the characters in the story who see Hyde comment about how uncomfortable his
appearance makes them feel. In your opinion, how might Hyde’s looks be a symbol of
something else? Why would this make people feel uncomfortable? Explain.
