Thirteen

Easter egg: Go to the "special features" menu, then hover over the area just to the right of "Turn disc over". You'll see a circled "13" appear. Clicking on this takes you to the improvised "box of drugs" deleted scene.

Easter egg: The word Thirteen appears very briefly (a couple of seconds at most) as the main menu loads but is not clickable. However a video of the "Zen Chicken" can be accessed by disassembling the DVD to your PC. You can then save the video as a separate file.

Tracy: He was crippled, but only his body was cracked. It's not simple, nor is it an easy matter to explain. "Let's just leave it at that," she says and closes the holy book of lies. She covers her eyes, denying to herself what she thought happened.

Question: Did Evie actually love Tracy or was she just using her the whole time? Did she actually want to be friends with her?

Answer: Tracy acted like she had done everything Evie did before. She pretended she was already bad to become friends with them, so Evie thought she had found someone who was like her. Evie was definitely also in love with Tracy, but was also jealous since Tracy had a family who loved her. She wanted that. Yes she used Tracy, but she also cared about her.

I don't think Evie was romantically in love with Tracy. It was more about her wanting to *be* Tracy, with a mother like Tracy's. Also, she seemed to know that Tracy was only pretending to be "bad." I think Tracy's innocence made Evie sad, because there was a time when Evie was more like her.

Answer: My interpretation is that Evie hates her home life, so she drifts between various friends. She hopes to stay at their homes and feel "included" in their families. Notice how she kept trying to please Mel. Eventually, she overstays her welcome and people make her leave. Tracy was just the current "friend" who Evie was using.

Answer: I don't think Evie ever loved Tracy or cared about her. I genuinely believe the whole reason why Evie befriended Tracy in the first place was the reason she knew well how innocent Tracy actually was and in a way Evie was jealous of that so I think she purposely wanted to change her which she knew would happen if Tracy started to hang out with her. The reason why the whole friendship continued is because of Tracy's mom which Evie was jealous she never had. I guess she thought that becoming obsessively close with Tracy would make her feel like she was part of the family and Mel was also her mother and Tracy probably her sister.? That explains the reason why Evie ditched Tracy the moment she realised Mel isn't going to adopt her - Evie never cared about Tracy she just wanted her life and when she realised that she couldn't have it she tried to ruin it by snitching on Tracy That's my explanation on the whole Evie - Tracy relationship in general.

Answer: I think Evie did care about Tracey, although she did manipulate her and make Mel's home life worse. She made careless mistakes ultimately because of the tragic upbringing she had. Evie was desperate to have a mother that actually cared for her, and Evie does show she loves Tracey. In parts of the movie, she says she loves her multiple times when she sees her asleep alone after she cut herself. She also says Tracey is her girl and she loved her towards the end right before ratting her out, which I think that Evie only blamed everything on Tracey was because if Brooke found out about the drugs she was probably worried about the outcome.
