Chapter four: The big decision

Alex and Dani have their first disagreement because Dani thinks it is sweet to watch the penguins "returning from the sea with a fish-supper for their babies" (p.24 l. 1/2) but Alex disagrees.
I thinkn the backround and the biggest reason for this little argument is that Alex thinks Dani is criticizing his dreams about the fame and that he just wants to be in the spotlight.
