Bender As Alpha Dogs Research Paper

Decent Essays
I like how you really portray both Bender and Andrew as alpha dogs, and during detention it started off as a competition of who was going to hold that role. Do you think Andrew had any feelings of remorse after saying that it wouldn't matter if Bender exist? Much how he shown remorse for his actions of bullying the weaker kid in the locker room. Also, nice pointing out that they practically had no choice but to really find out about each other in a day of detention. It forces each of them to be able to stand up for why they are the way they are and express what they feel without being judged with all their peers
