Even if I had not read this story before, I would have picked up on the fact that this singular point would be a catalyst to the rest of the plot.

“ Bryce saying this gives us the impression that he is criticizing Juli and her family, which is completely out of hand and ignorant for him to do. Telling someone that something that is theirs looks like a mess can create so much conflict, which is what happened, but Bryce chose to do it anyways. Page 127 shows the complete opposite.

Caligula’s lifestyle would of course lead to jail from his
