Final answer:

Gregor Samsa from novella The Metamorphosis does not have a secret plan related to his transformation into an insect, but rather to work tirelessly to pay off his family's debt.

Step-by-step explanation:

You are referring to a famous piece of literature where Gregor's secret plan alludes to the character Gregor Samsa from novella, The Metamorphosis. However, his transformation into an insect happens quite suddenly and without warning. Gregor's secret plan before his transformation is not related to becoming an insect. Instead, it involves working hard to pay off the debt his family owes to his boss. His dedication to this plan is significant as it showcases his role as the sole provider for his family and the pressure he faces, which author may use as an existential metaphor for human struggles. After his metamorphosis, Gregor must abandon his plans and face his new reality as a creature alienated from his previous life.
