  1. 5. Matt's true enemy is El Patron. El Patron made himself seem like a loving old man towards little Matt. Matt grew to love him and trust him the most and Matt believed that El Patron felt the same way. Matt believed that El Patron was his protector and would never do anything to harm his clone. On El Patron's death bed, Matt realized that El Patron wasn't the loving old man that Matt thought he was. Matt learned that all the love El Patron had towards Matt was fake and that he simply was using Matt for his organs. Here, El Patron showed his true self as a lying, deceiving and manipulating old man. El Patron faked his caring and love towards Matt simply for personal gain, making him Matt's worst enemy.

  2. 3. Rose was the character who surprised me the most. Her seeming kindness towards Matt when she thought he was an injured boy was almost mother like, but as soon as she found out that he was a clone, it changed in a heartbeat to an utter hate that can never be fixed. She treated him like an animal and almost turned him into one in her blind fury. It was also strange to see her fall so madly in love with the doctor and then drop him so quickly when he blamed her for things she did in fact do. Later on in the book, seeing her as an eejit was like seeing a tiger tame. You knew it was tame, but the underlying fear remained.
