Long Answer
1. Cass and Max-Ernest are both outcasts in the novel. Cass’s survivalist tendencies isolate her from her peers and enforce rigid thinking, while Max-Ernest’s “condition” of talkativeness drives potential friends away. However, Cass’s survivalism gives her a resourcefulness that allows her to navigate dangerous situations, and Max-Ernest’s loquaciousness grants him the ability to process information and make connections quickly. Max-Ernest’s quick-thinking logic helps him solve secret codes in the Secret world, while Cass’s survivalism helps them adapt to and triumph in difficult circumstances. (Various chapters)
2. Ms. Mauvais and the Masters of the Midnight Sun relentlessly pursue the Secret, which will grant them a secret formula for immortality. However, the price for immortality and maintaining a youthful appearance is apparent when Cass sees what lies underneath Ms. Mauvais’s glove: a wizened hand clearly belonging to that of a much older woman. This symbolizes how the cult members’ pursuit of immortality has corrupted them as people; their obsession with immortality drives the antagonists to commit horrible crimes without remorse, like kidnapping and threatening children or forcing them to undergo brain extractions.
