** Even worse, Lockwood killing Bhoot also robbed Mowgli from the opportunity to reconcile with his best friend, to whom Mowgli's last words were angry insults. That must have made Mowgli especially bitter toward Lockwood.

* Isn't it a bit dickish of Mowgli to sell Lockwood out to the elephants? Lockwood may have killed Bhoot, but he took Mowgli in, fed him, and sheltered him.
