- Meet Mary Malone- Husband Killer
- I can't believe I got away with it! And they are eating the murder weapon!
- Meet Babysitter Jo- Recent Rattlebag
- You need to stay calm. We don't want to trigger suspicion.
- Help me! I'm not quite sure what has happened to me!
- Babysitter Jo Needs Advice!
- I've always just followed along, assuming nothing evil would happen!
- Mary Malone steps into her kitchen, sweating from the stress of pulling off the murder of her husband, but very happy. Then, someone knocks on the door.
- Let's Take a Look at the Textual Evidence!
- After a charming conversation between the teenaged babysitter and a young boy, the babysitter takes the boy upstairs to tuck him in with a story.
- Even though the teenager should be stronger and wiser, he tells the reader, I would have pulled away, then, if I could, but small, firm fingers pulled me forward, unrelentingly, into the dark (Dahl 5).
- Babysitter Jo comes barging in from the house next door, looking less than alive and frantic.
- Mary Maloney Gives Advice
- Do not act suspicious! Carry on and act they way everyone expects!
- Jo's past includes believing in the innocence of children and the fantasy of ghosts-- he was wrong on both of these beliefs!
- Let's Take a Look at the Textual Evidence!
- After the police show up to question Mary, she convinces them that she is now a grieving widow and they want to help her.
- Without realizing that they are destroying their own investigation, Mary convinces the cops to eat the weapon. Mary says to the men, It'd be a favor to me if you'd eat it up (Dahl 10).
- This evidence proves that the babysitter takes on an unsuspecting approach, which makes the reader be on high alert on behalf of the narrator.
- Mary's past includes killing her husband with a leg of lamb and then serving it to the police for dinner. She effectively destroyed the evidence!
- This evidence proves that Mary takes a more manipulative approach to life, trying to stay cool and outwit suspenseful situations.
