What is ironic about Mike's reason for being late to Mr. Thomas' house?

Question 4 options:


A)


He was helping his sick mother, which shows he is typically a caring boy.


B)


He had to attend church first, which is the opposite of what one would expect from someone planning to destroy a house.


C)


He had to go to the doctor because he is very ill, which is in juxtaposition with his character's motivation to destroy another person's home.


D)


He was at the police station because his home was robbed earlier that week, which is the opposite of expectations given that he is planning to commit a crime himself.

The correct answer is B. He had to attend church first, which is the opposite of what one would expect from someone planning to destroy a house. Mike is 9 years old, a worker and goes to church, he says: "I have to go to church." Mike wants to destroy a house, but he will be late because he must go to church first.
