Question 1 • (Gosciewski) WCA 0431 English 12 - 1st 9 weeks 26-27
At first, Utterson rejects Poole’s theory that Jekyll was murdered because it does not seem logical: he asks why a murderer would stay. But after hearing Poole’s conviction and considering the suspicious note, Utterson decides he must break down the door and investigate. This shows he is beginning to consider a possibility he had initially dismissed as illogical. The excerpts do not suggest that he forgives Hyde, understands the transformation, or expects Jekyll to recover.
