- What is it about Lennie's actions in the bunk house which lead Slim to conclude that he has the mental age of a child and is not deliberately mean or wicked?

Lennie doesn't take part in Slim's conversation with George... he just smiles. Slim also notes that the two men travel together, something that is uncommon.
Lennie, who had been following the conversation back and forth with his eyes, smiled complacently at the compliment.
Slim looked approvingly at George for having given the compliment. He leaned over the table and snapped the corner of a loose card. "You guys travel around together?" His tone was friendly. It invited confidence without demanding it.
