Connie has two different sides. The fun loving outgoing teenager, and then the sad little girl at home. She is compared to her sister--who is always good and right, but not pretty like Connie. Oates adapts this story from Life magazine. Connie doesn't think that her family really cares for her and she is excited and alive at the burger joints. When she decides not to attend the bbq, Arnold Friend comes to get her. At first she thinks he is cool, and then she realizes that he is crazy and will harm her or her family. She quickly realizes that she will never see her family, and that instead of having harm come to them she chooses to keep them safe and leave with this psycho.
