Origin
Maddie wants to belong. Kind at heart and sensitive to criticism, she follows the girls' lead to keep her place in their world. Privileged, polished, popular — and not as cruel as the room she stands in. The conflict is the point: she is still afraid to go against them. At Westbrook, fear of exile is its own curriculum. Cotto's awakening will ask Maddie a question the academy never put on the exam.
