In Chapter 11, Forrest is asked by Dr. Quakenbush to audit his new course, "Role of the Idiot in World Literature." Forrest summarizes the makeshift staging of the scene in which King Lear and Tom O'Bedlam interact and comments intelligently on the dialog. Everything stops however, when Forrest's torch sets fire to the set. Quackenbush screams that he will get revenge. Cape aflame, Forrest runs home to Jenny.
