The vingette that I chose was the scene where Holden sees
the nuns with the cheap suitcases. This scene also causes him to have a flashback to
when his old roommate was jealous of Holden's expensive suitcases. Holden goes on and
on about how he doesn’t like cheap suitcases and how he immediately judges
people for having cheap suitcases. Holden tends to make snap judgments about
people without thinking about it, but later in the passage when he actually
speaks to them, he realizes that they aren’t that bad. This realization also
occurs when Holden stops talking about his roommate’s suitcases and more about
his personality. This is an interesting side of Holden that we haven’t seen yet
in where he makes a snap judgment but then further explores his relationship
with that person.
