In the short passage by Dalton Trumbo he shows that the father and son have a trustworthy relationship. The author showed this mostly when the son said that Bill Harper was coming and they were going to go fishing. He also shows that they have a strong bond with each other which helps his father have a trustworthy bond with his son. Bill Harper had no fishing rod so the son told his dad and then his dad said that Bill Harper could use his sons rod and his son can use his rod. This shows that their relationship is trustworthy because the rod is his dad’s most valuable one. Another example of this is when the son tells his dad that he was going to go out fishing with Bill Harper. This shows trust because his father has enough trust in his son
