In chapters 34 and 35, Tom makes a lot of complicated plans to free Jim in order to make it more fun instead of just lifting the bed and removing the chain which would be easier, such as for example to saw the leg of the bed where Jim's chained; or to saw Jim´s leg even though he later decides that there´s no time for this; or he even thinks of getting a pen in order to mark on Jim´s shirt the number of days he was chained. All these ideas come from literature and more specifically from adventure books that Tom has read. This is confirmed by Tom's question to Huck " <em>Why, hain't you ever read any book at all? Baron Trenck, nor Casanova, nor Benvenuto Chelleeny, nor Henri IV, nor none of them heroes?</em>". Tom also keeps repeating the phrase "<em>That's what they all do</em>" which demonstrates once again that he bases his escape plans on famous escapes he has read about in books. Later, Tom himself reassures Huck that he knows all about escapes because he has read about them in books (<em>"...I've read all the books that give any information about these things"</em>).

Since no one goes outside anymore, his behavior is considered regressive and he is arrested. Bradbury feared this might happen during the world war ||. He did not like technology at all, and said it was dangerous!
In Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut, the interaction between George and Hazel develop Kurt Vonnegut’s social criticism as It shows how technology can dehumanize and desensitize people.
On their son's murder, George and Hazel's reactions are brief and Hazel due to her "low intelligence" hers is underwhelming. Due to George's handicap, he is unable to dwell on anything for so long. So, when he watches his son on television, by a loud sound in his head his recognition is blasted away. He went into the kitchen to get a can of beer after Harrison is shot. whereas, Hazel cries. she gets momentarily distressed about what happened. therefore, due to her "low" intelligence, she quickly forgets about what happened. and when inquired by her husband upon the reason of tear, she forgets stating “Something real sad on television.”
Hence, in such a Bergeron's society handicaps assure that no negative emotion distress them. Therefore, they feel a momentary pain upon Harrison is gunned down in front of them.
