Who is spotted the Tucks and Winnie as well as overhead everything that Mae, Jesse, and Miles have shared? How might this scenario be both good and bad? From the book Tuck Everlasting

The man in the yellow suit saw and overheard the whole conversation of the Tucks and Winnie.

This scene can be good for the Tucks were tired of living "forever" and this provided a chance for them to be in contact with a "real, living person".

It can also be bad in that he now knows the secret to their longevity and may  try to do something sinister with his discovery.

Explanation:

Natalie Babbitt's Tuck Everlasting revolves around the 'magical' world of the Tucks who had been 'unintentionally' blesses/ cursed with living forever. Their secret of how they had come to this situation was overheard by the man in the yellow suit, who had been looking for the Tucks after hearing about story of his grandmother's friend who had married into a strange family. And all these secrets came to light when Winnie encountered the Tucks in the woods, and tried to drink the water in the woods which prompted them to tell of their condition.

This discovery of the man in the yellow suit about the secrets of the Tucks is good in that it led to the discovery of the real intention of the man. Also, it led to the discovery of new friends for Winnie, who felt a deep connection with the Tuck family. It also gave the Tucks a new chance to experience the presence of "a real, honest-to-goodness,  natural child!"

But, it may be bad in a way that he will use it in a more sinister manner. He wanted to 'share' the water to "certain people, people who deserve it." This plot led to the death of the man in the hands of Mrs. Tuck who was convicted to be hanged and thus led to the 'escape' of the Tucks from the place. Winnie lost her friends but saved the life of the woman.

ok what is this for my man

the first proposition is to question economic materialism and victorian christianity. the lines are:

“it moves us not.—great god! i'd rather be

a pagan suckled in a creed outworn; ”

wordsworth is stating that nature no longer interests mankind, that the latter is not “moved” by it and explains that ancient western paganism had a more positive attitude concerning nature since it lacked the perv erted judaeo-christian interpretation of having received the world and all its animals and elements from god to use as we , instead of humans actually being not only part of nature but its wardens, meant to appreciate it and protect it.

the next lines are:

“so might i, standing on this pleasant lea,

have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;

have sight of proteus coming from the sea;

or hear old triton blow his wreathed horn.”

wordsworth here make it very clear that by actually looking and contemplating nature, human beings would reconnect with happiness, serenity and purpose. the use of mythological figures is quite evocative as well, proteus is a greek mythological god of the changing sea. he personifies the sea that changes, which symbolizes the way nature changes and inevitably can change to be destructive not only due to natural causes but to human pollution. furthermore, the sea is even more symbolic since all life originated in the sea so it is not only our past but our future since no life form in our planet can survive without water and if all water is destroyed in earth all life will be gone as well.

he then uses triton which is symbolic of the synthesis of both nature and mankind. triton is a mythological greek god that has the upper body of a man and the lower body of a fish (a merman). this human fish duality evokes the fact that humans are not only human but also part of nature, the fish tail representing nature. the main attribute of this god was that he used a conch shell as a horn to calm the roaring seas. in other words, triton uses nature through science for the benefit of human sailors who risk death during tempests. with the use of such metaphor, wordworth is conveying the message that human technology   is supposed to use nature to preserve nature and thereby humanity as well.
