Jem reveals that when he found his pants that night, they were all folded up, and the tears had been crudely sewn up, as if someone knew that he would be coming back for them. He finds this highly eerie.

Jem says they were sewed and placed like someone knew he was going to come back to get them! He feels like someone is watching them!
