Kate Provoczki and Jeremy

[posted on the forums, just begging to be cleaned up and made into a scholarly essay.]

i could possibly maybe be reading too much into this (doubtful, considering the rabbit holes that the authors’ve already set in place and revealed –example: Andre’s picture on the wall near Kate’s work desk — still a guess as of this moment, but muhaha), but whether or not she and Jeremy eventually end up together, i think Kate will get her place in the sun.

Kate is actually rather tender-hearted, rather than a manhater as a forumer has suggested; when she meets up with Jeremy, we’re told that she has “personal experience” with the three signs that, essentially, a relationship should be over — abuse, lack of respect, and lies, and alludes to the fact that she’s on this road trip as a result of ending a relationship (“So hit the road. I did.”, “Greenland – Holidays for the Heartbroken.”) So. Girl on the rebound from a bad boy. Not exactly a time to be charitable towards strange men, and she even calls herself on it — “a soft-hearted person like [she] used to be” would have maybe stopped to give Jeremy a lift, which, of course, she ends up doing.
