Still sore, Peter boasts to himself about his cleverness, convinced he can outwit the stronger, larger strange rabbit. His confident thoughts are abruptly shattered by three loud thumps directly behind him, signaling the strange rabbit's presence.
Peter realizes his carelessness in not covering his tracks. Being too injured to fight, he is forced into a humiliating and bitter retreat, fleeing from his unseen opponent.
Notable Quotes:
- "Legs are very useful when you want to run away; Long, sharp teeth are splendid if to fight you want to stay; But a far, far greater blessing, whether one may stay or quit, Is a clever, trusty, quick and ever ready wit." – Peter Rabbi3t (epigraph)
Summary:
- Peter's hypocrisy is highlighted as he resents another rabbit's claim to territory, despite his own exclusionary signs elsewhere.
- The immediate, humbling consequence of Peter's overconfidence and forgetting to cover his tracks.
- The re-introduction of the distinctive "thumping" sound as a clear signal of danger and confrontation.
