* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:Jamie was perfectly willing to let anyone who wronged him end up as meals for the tro-lo-logs but when [[MoralityPet Sandy]] accidentally falls into the pit, he tries (but ultimately fails) to save her. As a result, he is uncharacteristically distraught and wracked with guilt over the incident and stops feeding the tro-lo-logs afterwards.]]
Added DiffLines:
* KidsAreCruel: Abergail openly belittles Jamie for being a social outcast, even after her aunt reprimands her for doing so ''multiple times''. [[spoiler:Needless to say, she is the first to be eaten by the tro-lo-logs.]]
