6. Yes I was really surprise because Charlie was the third character in the story I thought he would be there until the end.The bar was also one of the main place in the book now I can't see them going to the bar anymore. I think the death of Charlie will grow Bryon and Mark apart they do not see the death the same way and won't react the same way. The death is really changing their relation ship they won't be the same. That was then, this is now.

7. Bryon is moving on and Mark his staying the same. Mark says « I ain't gone sponge forever». He is feeling apart not like before, he doesn't feel like a brother to him. Maybe because Bryon is growing apart of Mark he is not as dependent he sees Cathy he is slowly replacing Mark by Cathy. The new reality is more Cathy then Mark. He speaks more to her also. Cathy and Mark will also fight over Bryon and they don't like each other.

8. His dad keeps saying mean stuff about him and is not supportive. It's pushing M&M to hate being home so he spends more time every where. His sister also think he take marijuana that could explain with how he hangs and what he does in his past time. The hippie will probably give him a place to stay they share a lot.
