Dee Dee Get out of my laboratory!

Let's take a moment to focus on Dee shall we (as if you have any choice in the mater). Dee leaves for college, glad that their house is burned down so she doesn't have to live in it (at the expense of her sister), claiming that her family's life was not good enough for her. Then she comes back in this LOUD dress trying to claim that hertiage that she had sworn off. She even went as far as trying to take the quilts she had sworn away a few years ago. Dee is a flat and annoying character, and is also a foil to Maggie in every way. While Dee is loud persistent and always gets what she wants, Maggie hides and goes with the flow. The reader takes a certain appeal to Maggie as Dee (or that weird 2nd name she took) flaunts herself around and tries to get what she wants. Maggie was hurt in many ways by Dee and I was so glad her mother gave her the quilts instead of Dee. The mother also takes another step out of her character as she tells Dee no to the quilts, something that I think would become a regular thing if the mom was a real person. Once the mother starts to stop Dee, Dee is left without a leg to stand on.
