true but like his like the epitome of a migrant worker with no sense of compassion, like yk at the end "whats supposes eating them two guys"or wtv that quote is also like he was excited to kill Lennie

true though I doubt him epitomising the brutality of 1930s USA and the part where Candys dog dies is 40mk worthy lol. I feel like the grade boundary would be quite low if they did ask abt him though

For OMAM and an Inspector Calls I think it's Eva Smith/Daisy Renton and Curley's Wife I think it'll be a woman's year.

yes, it could be since they’ve never done hide and seek before. But what can we compare that to?

I also think it might be curleys wife, they haven’t used her for a question in a long time
