Act one page. 15 “don’t tell me which one, just take him!”
The second reason that I blame Mrs Johnstone for the wicked tragedy that took place at the end of blood brothers is, that she gave Edward a locket with a picture of Mickey and herself in it just as Edward was about to move and forget about Mickey and Mrs Johnstone. Mrs Johnstone previously banned Edward from coming to see Mickey but Edward had to see Mickey as he was leaving to the countryside. When Mickey and Edward had finished meeting Mrs Johnstone asked Edward whether he wanted a picture of Mickey to take with him and Edward. Mrs Johnstone knew what she was doing was wrong and we know this because she told Edward to keep this a secret. This was a caused the tragedy because later on Edward got suspended from his school and met Mickey who also happened to get suspended on the same day.
Act one page 39 “would you like a picture of Mickey to
Take with you so’s you can remember him.”
The third and final reason that I blame Mrs Johnstone for the tragedy at the end of blood brothers is because she told the twins that they were brothers and that they were related. Even though she believed in the superstition that they would both die if they found out they were related they would die. Now even though the superstition was false in Mrs Johnston’s mind the superstition was true and even though she believed that they would die she still said it. Mickey had just found out that Linda was cheating on him with Edward and went home got the gun and found Edward Mrs Johnstone went there after him and saw Mickey about to shoot Edward. She told Mickey not to shoot Edward and soon afterwards she told Mickey that he and Edward were related, that they were brothers.
Act two page 81 “don’t shoot Eddie, he’s your brother
The second culprit for the heinous tragedy that took place at the end of blood brothers is Mrs Lyons. The first reason that I blame Mrs Lyons is that she formed the Idea of taking away one of Mrs Johnstone’s twins away. Mrs Lyons manipulated Mrs Johnstone she played on her weakness and then she convinced Mrs Johnstone to give one of the babies to her. I have explained the circumstances in a previous paragraph. Mrs Lyons made Mrs Johnstone swear on the bible. Knowing that she was religious and that she would not go back on her word once she had sworn on the bible Mrs Lyons had sealed the deal. What she did was manipulative evil and completely immoral. This led to the tragedy as if she had not manipulated Mrs Johnstone into giving away one of the babies she would not have had Edward and the tragedy would have not occurred.
Act one page 10 “give one to me yes, yes”
The second reason that I blame Mrs Lyons for the tragedy that happened at the end of blood brothers is because she made up a false superstition which eventually ended up killing them as the superstition left Mrs Johnstone helpless. The superstition stopped Mrs Johnstone from telling anyone of the situation or taking Edward back. Mrs Lyons called Mrs Johnstone when she was working for her and told her that she was not satisfied with Mrs Johnstone’s work. With this excuse she tried to get Mrs Johnstone to leave buy offering money. Mrs Johnstone refused and told Mrs Lyons that she was going to take her child back. Mrs Lyons got scared and made up a super station up on the spot to prevent Mrs Johnstone form doing this. If you tell anyone and these children learn that they were separated at birth you know what will happen don’t you? She carries on and tells Mrs Johnstone that both the boys will die instantly. Mrs Johnstone was scared of this and did not take Edward back. This led to the tragedy because if Mrs Johnstone had taken Edward away then the tragedy would not have occurred.
Act one page 19 “they say that if either learns that they
Were once a pair they shall immediately die.”
The final reason that I blame Mrs Lyons for the tragedy at the end of blood brothers is she showed Mickey the light romance between Linda and Edward, which triggered off Mickey’s anger and he went for the gun with intent to kill Edward. Mickey had just come off the pills for Linda when Mrs Lyons came and showed Mickey that Edward and Linda were having an affair. Mickey was angered due to Mrs Lyons’s actions. If she had not angered him he would not have fetched the weapon and Linda could have come back to him.
Act 2 page 79 “she turns Mickey around and points
Out Edward and Linda to him.”
The third and final person I blame for the tragedy that happened at the end of blood brothers is Sammy. The first reason that I blame Sammy for the tragedy that occurred at the end of blood brothers is that Sammy was the one who organised the violent games that they used to play when they were young if he had not have don’t this neither him or Mickey would have been so violent. Sammy organised games like cops and robbers and cowboys and Indians because he thought it was fun and they would sing songs about how if a gun hit you you wouldn’t get up off the ground again. If Sammy had not organised these games then Mickey would not have been so violent and so accustom to guns.
Act one page 30 “it doesn’t matter the whole things just a game”
The second reason I blame Sammy is that Sammy got Mickey involved in the robbery, which got Mickey in prison and then on the pills eventually. Mickey was fired from his job and could not find one then Sammy came into the picture and gave Mickey the job what did him in was the money. If Sammy would not have offered Mickey the job then Mickey would not have got hooked on the pills Linda would not have been driven into the arms of Edward and Mickey would not have killed Edward avoiding the whole tragedy.
Act 2 “look I’m offering all we need is someone to keep the eye.”
The third reason I blame Sammy is because it was Sammy’s gun that ended up killing Edward if Sammy didn’t have a gun then Mickey would not have had a weapon to kill Edward with and the whole disaster. Mickey knew that Sammy kept a gun under the floorboards and when he got angry he went straight for the gun.
Act two “Mickey collects the gun from under the floor boards”
Although there were three culprits there are other people the influenced the tragedy that happened at the end of blood brothers, other like Linda and Mr Lyons. Not only that two other things that were also a cause of the death of the twins being Coincidence and superstition. After analysing all of the evidence I think Mrs Lyons is most to blame for the tragedy at the end of blood brothers.
