1.       The reason that Gillespi was so mean and angry at Virgil was because Virgil had went against Gillespi when he said that Sam had done a stupid thing in bringing Virgil in as a suspect, and said that Sam did everything right and followed procedure perfectly.

2.       When Virgil just takes getting yelled at in a racist matter and says “good morning sir” it shows that he is a calm person who has tough skin. It also shows that Virgil has v. It also shows that Virgil has very good self-control.

3.       Frank Schubert is the city’s mayor and also on the city board who runs the police.  Schubert and Gillespi get in to an argument over wither or not to have Virgil take on the Mantoli case. The way that he finally convinces Gillespi to allow Virgil to take on the case is by telling him that if Tibbs takes on the case and fails everyone will be mad at him and not Gillespi but if Tibbs succeeds and finds the murderer he will have to hand the case over to Gillespi and let him take all the credit because Tibbs does not work for that police force and therefor is not permitted to close a case.

4.       I believe that the quote “To Gillespie’s intense relief, he didn’t smell” is just another example of the prejudice Gillespi has towards black people. This one just happened to be that he assumed that because he was black he would smell bad .                                                                                        The quote “If Chief Morris asked me to,” Tibbs replied promptly “id go to England to look for Jack the Ripper” means that Tibbs has so much respect for his chief that he would do anything that he asked of him.                                                                                                                                           I assume that when Tibbs tell the mechanic that he is the fall guy he is referencing that when Gillespie can not figure out the case he will just blame Tibbs for it.                                                     The quote “I don’t want to be conspicuous’ shows that Tibbs likes to think ahead.                          “I can give you some good refrences,” Tibbs answerd. “There in California. San Quentin.” Shows that tibbs knows that hes not actually welcome here and will not be ab;le to have as many resources as he would back home to solve this case.
