The theme of the story is that humans tend to jump to conclusions, and place blame on others to take the blame off themselves. This is especially noticable when "The cars engine starts up all by itself."(65) And the others instantly jump to the conlusion that he is the alien, as people start to yell out things like "He always was an oddball."(66), And start attacking him.
I personally thionk that the story gives a good message, and makes us think next time we jump to a conclusion. To this day, people still jump to conclusions about others. If people stopped jumping to conclusions, there would be a lot less innocent people gettging arrested, less people being taergeted, etc. I think that more people need to read this story
