The rule that Bud tells the reader about in chapter eleven is rule number 29. The rule is as follows:

The rule that Bud tells the reader about in chapter eleven is rule number 29. The rule is as follows:
When You Wake Up and Don't Know for Sure Where You're At and There's a Bunch of People Standing Around You. It's Best to Pretend You're Still Asleep, Until You Can Figure Out What's Going On and What You Should Do.
The reason that Bud has to apply the rule in his present situation is because he is riding in a car with his new acquaintance Lefty Lewis. During the ride, Lewis announces that he knows that Calloway is a famous man. Lewis also feeds Bud during the car trip. But after such a long day, being fed, and riding in a car, Bud eventually falls asleep. He is woken by Lewis's daughter trying to wake Bud up. Bud is groggy. He can't quite remember where he is or why he's with the people he is with, so he fakes being asleep until his mind clears up a bit. Bud eventually wakes himself up when he hears the mention of more food.
