In the novel, Hoot by Carl Hiaasen, the character Beatrice Leep was bossy and intimidating, which effected the main character Roy to stop to chase the barefoot boy.
"Lemme have your box." "No," Roy said. "Eberhardt, are you fond of your front teeth?" "I'm not afraid of you," Roy said.
Beatrice tried to snatch the shoe box that was being hold by Roy, and Roy clearly siad "No." But she wanted t osee that and behaved at her own direction.
"I got some advice for you," she said, lowering her voice...Glaring balefully over the top of her red-framed eyeglasses, she said. "From now on, mind your own damn business."
She threatened roy not to chase the barefoot boy. She didn't use "plaese," she just ordered him. She only thought what she wants and doesn't mind the others' thought.
Beatrice Leep was an enemy of Roy because of her behavior and personality. But they were almost reconciled. Also Beatrice is related with the barefoot boy. Maybe she will be the one of the most important character in the story.
