To summarize, in chapter 17, Holden was waiting at the waiting place and saw girls and was observing them. Then 10 minutes after the meeting time, Sally came and they went to see 'The Lunts'. After watching 'The Lunts' Sally met someone that she knew and Holden wasn't happy about this. Then, they went to ice-skate. After ice-skating, they sat down and Holden started saying that he is sick of this city life and wants to go to the country side. Sally says that they are two young and this conversation led to an argument and the date ended.
In this chapter, we can realize that Holden is jealous that all the nice looking girls are with all the 'phoney guys' also this is once more emphasizing that Holden really like girls a lot. Also after watching 'The Lunts', Sally meets a person that she knows. Holden is jealous about this because it seemed like the phoney guy was going to ruin his date. In pg 114, Holden said "Why don't you go on over and give him a big soul kiss, if you know him? He'll enjoy it" In addition to being jealous of phoney guys, Holden doesn't like the life in the city and was fed up with the school life that he had. Holden said, "I mean did you ever get scared that everything was going to go lousy unless you did something? I mean do you like school, and all that stuff?"
