Intro Paragraph - Set up the story that Meursault experiences; discuss how is actions are made to make him see simple, but really he is a much more complicated character. His outward actions make him seem simple, but he is extremely observant and intelligent. Set up the paragraphs: the funeral and the prison scenes with some analyzation. Thesis: Although Meursault may seem simple through an outward view because of his actions, he is contrarily rather complicated as seen through the way he handles his mother's death and his prison case.
First Paragraph - funeral scene: does not cry at the funeral, constantly defends herself. Should have experienced discomfort but does not really. Heat annoys him, and he smokes. Does not truly mourn his mother.
Second paragraph - does not really pay attention during the prison scene. Heat again bothers him, but even when his life is being decided on, he can not truly concentrate on what people are saying. Maybe also begins to feel emotion, but it seems that he also might feel empty. Somewhat confused about everything going on, but still shows intelligence by being very observational about the people around him. Furthermore detached from the world.
Conclusion- sum up all the ideas stated previously.
