Villains in Addams Family movies go to really unnecessary lengths to defraud them of the family fortune. These people just give it away on whims all the time. If I just walked into the house and started wearing their clothes and spending their money, they wold start introducing me as Cousin Intruder and forget there was ever a time I didn’t live with them.
I disagree with this whole heartedly, they would realize you weren’t a member of their family fairly quick since they keep Immaculate track of their family trees. The important thing, the really important thing, is that they wouldn’t care. Especially if you’re acting like they are family to you, they’re just going to assume that you’re someone who needs a family and needs friends and happily provide one to you without question. Especially if you’re someone, and given that you’re sharing their clothes this is pretty likely, with similar tastes to them. Eventually they will call you part of the family but it won’t be because they don’t realize you aren’t, it will be because they’ve decided to make you one.
They’ll add you to the family tree. They’ll even make a big todo out of it, with a celebration and feast.

Simon’s friends should’ve flooded him with love and support after he was publicly outed instead of being absolute papayas and reprimanding him for being blackmailed, and should’ve begged him for forgiveness after completely abandoning him in his time of greatest need, in this essay I will
That’s where the book and the film differ so much. When I’d watched the film for the first time – I was so pissed of with Simon’s friends ADHFDPIFVJDFIFDI!!! But then I’d read the book, and was like… okay – this is how it should be. Because in the book his friends were actually supportive in that crucial moment when he was at his most vulnerable, and they actually tried to kick the arses of those two arseholes who bullied Simon at school.
I love the film , I really do. But go read read the book if you haven’t done it yet, you are missing out a lot. There is so much more to it than in the film. Go read it, you’ll love it.
