Reality. . .

The reality is strong, and the mainstream of the society is strong. Julie's parents who are in the upper class but are essentially indifferent and selfish, Pauline's paranoid and manic mother who is humble and resentful towards life, and the school's overall environment in which the school has become popular are actually the background of the big society. Condensation, they all represent a power to control and transform them. Julie and Pauline have extraordinary talents in literary arts, but they have not received the attention they deserve. Therefore, they appear to be incompatible with the outside world. They think that people with noble hearts must be lonely, just like themselves. They can only experience the beauty of life from the fabricated novels, dance with the prince in the fourth world, and compete with the knight. They resist being transformed into one of the bulk of the same products exported to this society, and they don't want to become the abominable faces and lies of their parents. Their desire to uphold the truth and defeat evil is more ardent than any adult. Why would such a pure-hearted, proud and persistent child lead to a murder of mothers?

Juliet Hulme: As soon as those bods in Hollywood cop a look at us, they'll be falling over themselves!
Pauline Parker: Oh, it'll be amazing to meet James in person. I just know we'll hit it off brilliantly. And Guy Rolfe. And Mel Ferrer.
Juliet Hulme: And Mario!
Pauline Parker: Oh, I can't wait to do the love scenes.
Juliet Hulme: Ooh.
Pauline Parker: But what if they're married?
Juliet Hulme: Oh, don't worry about that. We'll simply 'moider' any odd wives that get in our way!

Juliet Hulme: Daddy says the Bible is a load of bunkum.
Pauline Parker: But we're all going to Heaven.
Juliet Hulme: I'm not. I'm going to the Fourth World. It's sort of like Heaven, only better, because there aren't any Christians. It's an absolute paradise of music, art and pure enjoyment.
