• chapters 1-8 Both plots mixed
• (exposition) chapters 9-14
• Two separate plots that merge in climax. The
  Boo Radley plot seems related to Scout and Jems
  childhood. The Tom Robinson plot seems to
  contain the conflict (Rising Action). Both Boo
  and Tom connect symbolically to the theme of the
  mockingbird. After the two plots join, Scout has
  a more mature view of life.

  lynch mob.
