During these chapters, the Duke and King come up with a plan to steal a great amount of money from the Wilk's family, during Peter Wilk's funeral. Huck doesn't really like this plan so, he comes up with his own plan to stop it. The first thing Huck decides to do to ruin the King and Duke's plan is to steal their money. After watching them for a little bit, he sees they put the money under the bed. Huck needed to hide the money somewhere else, but when he is about to hide it outside of the house, people start coming so he hides it in the next best thing, Peter Wilk's coffin. This part of Huck's plan does not turn out how he expects it to. Before he has time to take the money out of the coffiin, and return it to Mary Jane and the other sisters, the coffin is buried, with the money in it. Huck thought he had a real problem now, but he decided to just tell Mary Jane what happened, hoping that she would be ok with it. Telling Mary Jane is exactly what he did, he went straight to her and told her the stroy from begining to end, from the point when he first met Duke and King till why he was sitting next to her right then. Huck told her all about how they were just con-artist trying to steal money from people. When he tells Mary Jane the truth about the men, they both come up with their own plan to get the men caught and exposed.
I think Huck decides to ruin their plan because he really does care about doing the right thing. He felt bad for all of the people the Duke and King were hurting, and wanted to make it up to them. Huck has always felt sort of bad for following their plan, and this is the first time he goes against them.
