Cassie ((WHY))

[shont2006]

Can someone explain why there is a focus to uncover Cassie?

I thought she was just a plot device that was being used to to drive the romance portion of the story forward. You know...how a girlfriend might question, "who was that girl you were talking to?" and you answer, "What girl?". It kind of shows that Bree has an emerging interest in Daniel as more than just a friend.

What makes people think that she is, in fact, a real person...and that she can be tracked down? I'm just questioning whether this whole Cassie thing is a bit overblown.

I don't think it's overblown. There's obviously a backstory with Bree since they "walked the track" together, and she seems to have some sort of emotional attachment. Daniel was flustered and curious, while Bree was starting to shut down and doing the 'nevermind, nevermind' thing. It was obvious foreshadowing because I don't think they would have kept that conversation in the final cut of a swimming video if it wasn't to be remembered. Plus, the new developments with audio file sent to Virginia, whether real or not, point a lot of the story in a Cassie-related direction. Lastly, it's something new to focus on when the old topics were getting boring haha.

I originally thought Bree said that Daniel and Cassie used to walk the track together. I guess I was wrong. I relistened several times, and she said we, but it was very hard to hear.
=========

Bree: Whatever happened to that girl Cassie?

Dan: Who?

Bree: That girl, she was in your class? You know...

Dan: I have no idea what you are talking about.

Bree: Did she graduate?

Dan: Who? Who is this girl?

Bree: She was in your class.

Bree: ...P.E. together

Dan: What did she look like?

Bree: I don't remember.

Dan: Why would you even bring...

Bree: I don't know...just forget it about it...we just used to walk around the track together.

Bree: Because everybody was so mean to her, you know? You ready to go?

Virginia just posted in **TRY YOUR HAND/New Evidence in Need of Analysis.
It seems that Bree's email as breesnuggles15 is getting more verified. And the similarity to the rhyming cassiestruggles18 (which Virginia says came out of the blue) is undeniable. If the second name was sent to Virginia after the first was public, then it could be anyone hoaxing yet again. But if not, we might have an indication that Bree and Cassie are the same person. And Cassie is 18.

Oh yeah, and this reminds me of Twin Peaks, Laura Palmer.

the breesnuggles15 information has been around at least a week

[harmony220]

When & how did we find out about Bree's yahoo email address?

[courtxknee]

I dont know about Cassie's yahoo address.
I just tried to add it as my friend for IM and it wouldnt let me.. But it let me add Bree.

[screamingmonkey]

Cassie's supposedly at hushmail, not yahoo. If that helps...

[curriguy]

I know where breesnuggles15 comes from.

On Bree's myspace page, she posts a picture of feynman (the scientist).
that picture is hosted at photobucket under the username "Breesnuggles15"

If [e-mail] exists, it was probably created wtih the intention of creating the photobucket

I'm with you on that theory. I'm not so certain Cassie will emerge in any major way. We hear a lot more about Andrea than Cassie. I think it was a plot device to suggest that Bree was feeling jealousy and starting to move Daniel into the "relationship" category.

[ural20]

But didn't Bree say that she and Cassie used to walk around the track together? Why would that signify the change of status in Bree and Daniel's relationship, if Cassie and Bree were friends?
