At this point Scrooge is already questioning the very way he acts towards people. “No. I should like to be able to say a word or two to my clerk just now! That’s all.” It is apparent here that Scrooge is feeling somewhat remorseful towards his clerk for not treating him in the kindest way earlier on in the novel. “You’ll want all day to-morrow, I suppose?’ ‘If quite convenient, sir.’ ‘It’s not convenient, and its not fair.” From the way Scrooge is complaining to his clerk that ‘its not fair’ to have Christmas day off and to when he comprehends how bitter he was towards him, it is distinct that the Ghost of Christmas Past helped him come to this realization.

During this meeting, they discussed Holden’s academic failure and his unwillingness to conform to society and apply himself to his studies. Antolini has a paternal attitude towards Holden. He seems genuinely concerned about the boy and tries to help him realise that his irresponsible behaviour is spiralling out of control. He tells him he is headed for a fall and “the man falling isn’t permitted to feel or hear himself hit the bottom.”(Chapter 24, The Catcher in the Rye) He offers advice: “The mark of an immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of a mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.” (Chapter 24, The Catcher in the Rye) The visit is relaxed and friendly. He doesn’t question Holden too much.
