Answer 2

Answer:

Ebenezer Dorset does not accommodate the kidnappers' demands for ransom. He knows his son for who he is and therefore knows that Johnny can take care of himself in any crisis. Two kidnappers are nothing compared to his son. This attitude is ironic because no one would expect a father to be calm in a situation like the kidnapping of his son. All the father has to do is wait until the kidnappers have had enough of Johnny and they will more than likely pay him to give back his son. Ebenezer is right because he sends them an offer to pay him $250 to take Johnny off their hands. Bill and Sam comply because they need their sleep and a chance to get out of town before something worse happens. Therefore, Bill and Sam's kidnapping plan to get some "quick" money for their next con backfires because of the above-mentioned, unexpected events that occur.

Explanation:  

Bill and Sam, two petty criminals looking for an easy two thousand dollars, hatch a plot to kidnap and hold for ransom, Johnny the 10-year-old son of Ebenezer Dorset, a wealthy pillar of the community. They pick up the boy and take him to a cave hideout, but there the tables are turned. Calling himself "Red Chief" in a fantasy game of cowboys and Indians, the boy drives both men crazy—but particularly Bill. With his childish demands and mild physical abuse, the boy demands they entertain him, refusing to return to his home even when they release him from his captivity out of desperation to be rid of his antics. Nonplussed by this unexpected reaction to their crime, the two men  write a ransom letter to the boy's father, lowering the requested ransom from two thousand dollars to fifteen hundred. Unfortunately, Ebenezer  Dorset, who knows that his boy is a terror, rejects their demand and instead offers to take the boy off their hands if they pay him $250. Bruised and disheartened, Bill and Sam hand over the cash and trick the unhappy boy into returning to his wealthy father.
