The Summoner
The summoner is the next person to tell a story after the firar ironically. He is mad at the friar for insulting people of his trade and decides to tell a story that makes friars look as bad as his profession had been made to look. In his tale he describes a friar that extorts people of his pastor for money for forgivness of their sins. I think in a modern version of the canterbury tales the summoner would also say the friar molested young boys to further disgrace his trade.
