Nun soll Pip ihr mit Kartenspielen die Zeit vertreiben helfen. Während der allwöchentlichen Besuche verliebt er sich bald in Miss Havishams Adoptivtochter, die schöne Estella, und beginnt von Reichtum und Bildung zu träumen - schier unerfüllbare Wünsche für den Waisenjungen und Schmiedelehrling. Da eröffnet ihm plötzlich ein Rechtsanwalt die Aussicht auf "große Erwartungen" - ein unbekannter Gönner will ihn zu einem Gentleman erziehen lassen. Bald hat Pip sein einfaches Leben im Dorf vergessen und führt in London ein unbekümmertes und verschwenderisches Dasein. Erst das Auftauchen seines Wohltäters reißt ihn aus seinen Illusionen.
