The most memorable moment was about how Meursault became friends with a man named, Raymond. They both became friends easily. meursault became Raymond's mate and when he asked Meursault to write a worrying and horrific letter, Meursault did not disapprove. It was about how the women cheated off Raymond and he wanted revenge. Raymond invited Meursault to his friends little wooden chalet at the far end of the beach. As soon as Raymond, Meursault, and Marte hopped off the bus, Raymond pointed out right across the street were Raymond' man, a group of Arabs who had something against him.

 When they arrived at Massons place, they each began to introduce each other. During the day, Meursault, Raymond, and Masson went to the beach to get to know each other more. Suddenly they saw Arabs walking in front of them. Then a brawl began, Raymond was slashed with a knife. His lips and arms were gushing out blood. At about half past one Raymond came back with Masson. His arms bandaged up and plaster on the corner of his mouth. Raymond wanted some fresh air and went outside, but Meursault knew he wanted revenge, so he followed him. When they wanted spotted them, Raymond handed his gun to Meursault. They wanted an even match. However, the Arabs retreated, and Meursault, and Raymond headed back to the chalet. Expect Meursault, he walked back again to the bach and saw one Arab come back. He gripped his gun inside his pocket and the Arab drew his knife out and held it towards Meursaults head. The scenario was filled with sky splitting from end to end and raining down sheetes of flames. He pulled the trigger and the perfect silence of the beach where he had been happy was destroyed.
