- Chapter 7, Paragraph 5
- Before Miss Lucy (The New Guardian) started working at Hailsham, there were rumors around the school that the fences were electrified, it is possible to infer that the
other Guardians knew of these rumours, but didn't stop them so it stopped the Clones from wanting to leave, for the fear they'd get electrocuted

and her friends, this could be to protect them from the outside world,

- Life, Death and Humanity
- We all know it. We're modelled from Trash. Junkies, Prostitutes, Winos, Tramps, Convicts, Maybe,

- Love

water moving really fast. And These two people in the

hard as they can, but in the end it's just too much. The
current's too strong. They've got to let go, drift apart.
That's how it is with us. It's a shame, Kath, because
we've loved each other all our lives. But in the end, we
can't stay together forever.
