There are three packers in this story, namely, George, Harris and Jerome. Off the three, Jerome seems to be the best packer because of his orderly arrangement of things. Although he too forgot about the boots and the toothbrush and accidentally packed his spectacles, he managed the packing in a systematic manner without making things turn topsy-turvy.

However, on the other side, George and Harris made a complete mess of everything. The breaking of a cup followed by squashing of the tomato in the strawberry jam and stepping on almost everything; putting things behind themselves and then searching for the same exhibit their reckless behaviour. Moreover, they miserably failed in handling things and the sheer nuisance created by Montmorency throw light on the big blunder they created, being the central theme of this story.
