  1. Internal Conflicts: Tom seems to be in a very difficult situation because he feels fear when he looks down, he gets into panic and starts trembling. He never thought that was going to be that hard, being eleven stories up was not easy.
    External Conflicts: Tom faces many external conflicts when the yellow paper goes through the window and he decides to go out risking his life. The darkness, wind and cold make him tremble like an old engine.

  2. Tom Benecke is having two internal conflicts, which are the fact that he let his wife go to the movie theater, by herself and the fact that he is not going with her because he is doing his "memorandum". On line 447 to line 449, he is feeling remorse. Because he is asking himself why he lent his wife go by herself. However he needs her more than ever. His second conflict is that he is not making his role as a husband. On line 533 to line 540,he is thinking that he did not allow his wife in another opportunities before why he let her go exactly today, leaving his responsibility as husband to a side. 996462

  3. External Conflicts: Tom's external conflict is his attempt to retrieve the paper that flies out of his window.

    The external conflict is between Tom and the building.
    He is out there on the ledge, fighting against death.
    Internal Conflicts: Tom's internal conflict is deciding between work and the movies, his overcoming fear, and fighting the temptation to look down.
    This causes an internal conflict It causes him to start thinking about what is really important in his life.
