Flight to the Lonesome Place / int_1c77ec26 | comment |
The Voice: Marlowe; though Ana Maria Rosalita and Luis have seen him, no one else has or even knows he exists. And he prefers it that way. | |

Parental Abandonment | |
Flight to the Lonesome Place / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: All three main characters. Ronnie's biological parents were never known. He loses one Parental Substitute before having to abandon his other Parental Substitutes when he didn't know who to trust. Both Luis Black and Ana Maria Rosalita had mothers who died much earlier and fathers who died only a year earlier or less. | |

Flight to the Lonesome Place / int_2dff6b95 | comment |
Two Guys and a Girl: Ronnie Cleveland, Luis Black, and Ana Maria Rosalita. They qualify as a Token Trio with Ronnie as white while Ana Maria Rosalita is Puerto Rican/Irish and Luis a very dark skinned Puerto Rican. It was a platonic group as well, as they felt more like a family. | |

Blatant Lies: The excuse Ronnie gives the cab driver in Puerto Rico for not wanting the police to see him. Knowing the cabbie is friendly and doesn't mind him not wanting to be seen, Ronnie explains that he is a Communist whose job it is to blow up all the police stations in the city. The cabbie plays along laughingly. | |

Would Hurt a Child: The Senora Breton smacked Ana Maria Rosalita in the face so hard, she could barely walk for a few hours after. The bruise was still prominent about two days later. The men trying to kill Ronnie. One even points his gun at Ronnie. | |
