You can easily notice his hard, protective outer shell that he uses most of the time, but also his underlying emotional characteristics. These emotional characteristics are visible when Mitch spends time with his girlfriend, Greta, throughout the novel.

He would never forgive himself if he didn’t” (Flynn Chapter 48). As the novel progresses, Mitch tries to prove to himself that his is nothing like his bitter mentor, Stan Hurley, so his emotions are shown more in contrast to Stan’s emotionless
