I just don't get what made the Greasers mess with Jimmy as he was picking up things around town for Ms. Philips. Funnily enough, you can unlock this mission once you start Chapter 4, which means they'll attack you even if you have 100% respect with their clique. What gives?
Now that I think about it, it actually makes sense why Mr. Burton and the Jocks assumed it was Jimmy who set the gym on fire. I re-watched the cutscene and found it weird to see Jimmy casually walking by the gym without even noticing it's in flames. Shouldn't he at least have smelled the smoke or noticed the commotion around him and realized something was wrong? The way Jimmy was acting looked very suspicious, even if he obviously didn't do it.
Do you have any idea why the Preppies rank lower than the Greasers in the Bullworth social hierarchy? It seems a bit odd to me, as I'd expect the Preps to be higher due to their wealth and the significant influence their parents have within the school and the local community. That's definitely something they have that the Greasers don't. They’re not only known for being rich, but they're big on boxing and should be strong fighters, especially Bif who's second only to Russell in terms of physical strength. I feel like the Preps also bully more often than the Greasers. They're all about putting the Greasers (and pretty much anyone who's not upper class) in their place.
Guess what, I just found out that Elena Franklin, the voice of Mandy, is now the lead singer of a Nashville alt-rock band called Reality Something. They've actually been playing since 2015 or something. They haven't dropped new music in the last few years, but they're still active. Killer sound, be sure to check them out!

Anybody wonder why Russell doesn't take a more active role as Jimmy's friend? It's kind of strange Jimmy doesn't think to bring Russell as backup when dealing with the cliques until he gets to the Townies. In Complete Mayhem, they fight three guys from each clique together, but in every chapter before Jimmy takes on the whole clique alone in the final mission. How could he have been so sure that he'd beat them all by himself? Wouldn't it have been a good idea to get some help from the strongest guy in Bullworth and the one friend (besides Pete) who never turns on him?
