Theories

"Ruth said in a mock whisper: 'Tommy's big gallery theory!'" Page 193

Throughout the story, we time and time again hear of theories. Even when Kathy was much younger, her group had a theory that someone was trying to kidnap Miss Geraldine. Up until the very end, when she and Tommy went on a search for theoretical deferrals, theories keep popping up. This is very peculiar, and hints that even from an early time, the clones felt insecure about themselves and consequently made theories. Many times, these theories are ridiculous and juvenile, but their existence alone means something more. Students grow up never knowing the truth about anything.
