Having just survived the worst week of her life (spurred by the discovery of her name on a list of \"Ugly Freshmen\" in a bathroom stall at her high school), all she can do is collapse into the corner and cry, convinced that the dead have conspired with the living to hijack her safety and self-worth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecky doesn't know Barbara, whose husband has been taken prisoner during World War II in the Pacific, or Lester, an unemployed loser who prefers MTV to social interaction, both of whom lived in her house well before she was born.
