  2. Chapter 9 begins with Alfred waking up and going for another jog. The cops that made fun of him before actually gave him a compliment saying stuff like “Hang in there, Al, you’re lookin’ good,”
    After he was done Jogging for over an hour he went home. Aunt Pearl was suspicious and asked where he had been. Alfred was acting cocky and answered with goofy stuff like “From One Hundred Tenth to Eighty-fifth Street and back,nearly three miles.” Aunt pearl asked if he was drunk and Alfred made a joke and tried to explain to Aunt Pearl that he wanted to become a boxer. Aunt Pearl was too fond of the idea of her nephew Alfred getting hurt in a boxing match. Alfred explains that he can make big money from boxing and that he is serious about it too.
