TIME REMAINING 01:51:44 Read this excerpt from The Golem. PEARL You made this mess. The least you could do is get the water to clean it up. The golem takes a step toward her. Pearl stifles a little shriek; she is more surprised than scared. PEARL What's this about? What do you want? The golem stretches out his arm toward the bucket. PEARL Really? You'll get the water from the stream? . . . All right, then. But please be quick about it. The golem takes her bucket, plus another, and moves stiffly but quickly to the door and leaves. Pearl smiles. PEARL It may not be such a bad thing to have a golem around the house after all. Pearl’s view of the golem changes. She now thinks he is slightly frightening but useful. slightly unintelligent but pleasant. slightly frightening but harmless. slightly ugly but well-meaning.
