The Whipper

Hey Shelby, I have not reached your point in the book yet but I am catching up. I just finished the Whipper which was an interesting chapter. Not much happened besides K. running in two the Whipper punishing the two man twice. K. constantly makes up excuses for his actions of not being able to save the two man but in reality he sounded as if he was afraid of the whole situation. It seems as if K. is getting himself more and more caught up in the situation by not allowing the clerks to run in and see what is happening for themselves. K fears everything. What did you guys think?
