    Joe Manetti is a round, static character within the story, “Always a Motive”. He is described many times as having jet black, curly hair, pale skin and being dressed shabbily. A good look is given into his personality through his actions and many responses to the inspector’s questions. When Joe answers, “I had plenty of gas and I don’t eat much these days.” His tormented state is plainly seen as a not only a recent change, but a major change in his personality. His calm and quiet is also displayed through the entire interrogation, but no more than the moment after he is told he is free to go. In the story it says, “The young man with the pale face and black, curly hair showed no special sigh of relief.” This nonchalant attitude to something of such magnitude shows that he has given up. He has no reason to be relieved of his proven innocence because there is no reason for him to want be free in the first place, because of his life situation.…

This companionship is a primary example of any real-life friendship of the common person. It is possible to portray many differences within a friendship, but still hold on to whatever is the quintessence of the cohesion between the parties involved.…
