- During one of Tom’s midnight adventures with his friend Huck, the two witness Injun Joe murder Dr. Robinson. When they discover that Muff Potter has been arrested for the murder, they are too afraid to reveal the truth.
- FALLING ACTION
- When Injun Joe disappears, Tom returns to his old ways. He and his friends run away to Jackson’s Island and return days later to attend their own funeral. Later, they spy Injun Joe in disguise with a secret treasure. Huck stays in town to watch Joe, while Tom goes on an outing with Becky to McDougal’s cave. He and Becky separate from the group and become lost in the cave.

- Safe from Injun Joe, Widow Douglas takes in Huck and cares for him while he is sick. Tom and Becky escape from the cave, and Judge Thatcher seals it up, unwittingly trapping Injun Joe and causing his death by starvation.
- Tom and Huck uncover Injun Joe’s treasure in the cave. Between their adventures, heroism, and newfound wealth, the two become a celebrated pair in St. Petersburg.
