This is one of his main character traits. The description at the beginning of the story of "another sandwich and a package of cookies" falling out of his pockets hints at his unhealthy relationship with food. https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101192020 -Sadie Aylesworth]]> 2021-01-19 13:47:57 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101192020 Kenny https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101211823 Jokester

"Bring four orders of pancakes, plenty of butter and syrup." (Wolff)

This can be seen more as a mean streak though as his jokes become more vile. In the beginning of the story, he almost runs Tub over: "The truck jumped the curb and kept coming, half on the street and half on the sidewalk. It wasn't slowing down at all".

Towards the end of the novel he stops making fun of Tub and opens up to him about leaving his wife. "The way I look at it, Tub, no man is an island. You've got to trust someone." https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101223371 -Sadie Aylesworth]]> 2021-01-19 13:54:34 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101223371 Frank https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101224733 Immoral
"But she can't be more than--"Tub shook his head.
"Fifteen. She'll be sixteen in May." Frank smiled.

"'Nobody knows. That's the worst of it, Frank. Not the being fat, I never got any big kick out of being thin, but the lying. Having to lead a double life like a spy or a hit man'''

"'I guess you think I'm a complete bastard.'
'No, Frank. I don't think that.'
'Well, you ought to.'

Kenny shoots an old dog on the farmland the three men were hunting. This upsets and scares Tub so much that he shoots Kenny. When the man finds out Kenny was shot for killing the dog he explains that he "would have done(shot the dog) it myself but I didn't have a gun." https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101257684 -Sadie Aylesworth]]> 2021-01-19 14:01:34 UTC https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101257684 Frank https://padlet.com/catherine_edmonds/qfd6x67xf27r7myv/wish/1101258365 Enabler
"Tub ate several mouthfuls, then started to wipe his lips. Frank took the napkin away from him. 'No wiping,' he said. Tub kept at it. The syrup covered his chin; it dripped to a point like a goatee. 'Weigh in, Tub,' Frank said, pushing another fork across the table" (Wolff).

"Okay, Tub. I promise.
Tub let go of Frank and leaned his forehead against the fence. His arms hung straight at his sides.
I'm sorry, Tub. Frank touched him on the shoulder." (Frank)

"Tub had to run for it and just managed to grab hold of the tailgate and hoist himself into the bed. He lay there, panting. Kenny looked out the rear window and grinned. Tub crawled into the lee of the cab to get out of the freezing wind".

" 'I hate that dog.' Kenny was behind them.
'That's enough,' Frank said. 'You put that gun down.'
Kenny fired. The bullet went in between the dog's eyes." (Wolff)
