** There’s also the added sadness that, for the first time that something bad happens to Pearl, it’s not tied to her psychotic behavior or erratic personality, but simply because of how she looks, since she lacks the “All American” look (and it’s all but outright stated that it’s because she’s of German descent). While Pearl has her flaws, it’s sad that the reason she was rejected was so shallow and reflective of her time period.

** To say nothing of Mitzy's fate. She was just trying to be kind to Pearl, and then tries to protect herself by leaving the house after the horrific speech. And all she gets is a brutal murder at her friend's hands. Mitzy's screams for help and hopeless begging for her life are devastating, knowing how kind she was. She deserved better than such a painful death.

* Also crosses over with DarthWiki/NightmareFuel. After killing Mitzy, Pearl returns to the basement and curls up in her dead mother’s arms, where she imagines Ruth singing a lullaby to her in German.
