Madness Mantra: Don't touch. It's both a symptom of Caddie's OCD and a temporary relief. OCD is complicated like that. | |

Pool Scene: The party at which everyone practices their lines is one. Caddie is, of course, fully clothed, but Peter and Mandy wear swimsuits and Oscar is naked. | |

| Don't Touch / int_4de0ca68 | comment |
Eccentric Artist: Birmingham Arts Academy rules this trope. Caddie worries that her gloves and compulsions will make her not fit in. On her first day, she finds that she's not the least bit odd compared to the rest of the school. | |

Visit by Divorced Dad: He cancels several times and never actually shows up. One of Caddie's immediate worries is that he won't show up if she touches someone. | |

No Sense of Personal Space: All of Mandy and Caddie’s circle of friends, especially with Caddie so sensitive to it. Peter and Oscar in particular—Peter casually shows affection by wrestling, and Oscar has no inhibitions about rubbing himself against Caddie before he really knows her. | |
