What a conclusion to the introduction of Gania's family! After the surprise appearance of Nastasia, it's no less than Rogojin who shows up... There is really something of the old ropes of a vaudeville in the way Dostoyevsky launches his characters one against another with such coincidences...

Poor Muyshkin ^^ Once again he gets in the middle and gets rewarded this time with a slap in the face, and not a metaphorical one - him, the Innocent! No wonder everyone is so shocked and pity him straight away!

Gania is once again the centre of the drama here and I will pick up two quotes, which, I think can give an idea about future developments. He seems to have a goal, all his schemings are tended into one direction, and the 75.000 roubles are just a mean to get it:

I am obeying a passion, an impulse perhaps, because I have but one aim, one that overmasters all else.

But what is it? We don't know yet. We just know what Gania is this type of man - common to all eras - who will accept the God of Money and Power and submit to it with all his soul and sees it as the only way to be SOMEONE:

Once I am rich, I shall be a genius, an extremely original man. One of the vilest and most hateful things connected with money is that it can buy even talent; and will do so as long as the world lasts.
