I believe the correct answer is - Huck decides he does not want to go to "the good place" if Miss Watson is going to be there.

Satire is a technique many writers often use to mock or criticize something or someone from their daily or social lives. Here, the author is criticizing Miss Watson, saying that maybe she doesn't deserve to go to "the good place," indicating that Huck does.
