Part 2/9:
Bartleby, along with his friends Daryl and Sherman, appears to be adjusting well to high school life, even operating a side business of creating fake IDs. Daryl's character, represented as a former football player with crutches, reflects the struggles students face when their plans for the future fall apart. Sherman, on the other hand, is the quintessential overachiever, worried about his legacy as a fourth-generation admit to Harmon College. This dynamic highlights the societal pressures surrounding education and success, particularly in American culture.
