- Mrs Rosen is giving what is possibly a lifesaving tip that will help them to survive. 
- There is a perceptible tension between one who wants to be identified and one who does not because of the need to survive or simply get by. 
- There is contrast between Kirsti's happy response as a child and Mrs Rosen's adult take on the situation. The irony is that humans are social creatures - they want to be remembered and noticed. So the girls, being young, might not be fully able to relate to Mrs Rosen's statement to be "part of a crowd, always".
- Participants discussed instances when one is part of a crowd and issue of identity, gave examples of when one experienced being uncomfortable in a crowd or when a sense of solidarity was felt.
