She works part time when she has no studies at MacDonalds. She doesnt really need to but to get out of the house and do more things. She has everything she wants in her life materially but doesnt really want it or need it all. She lacks sense of purpose and satisfaction in her life.
In Billys life he had never really had a proper relationship with his family nor friends. He just wanted someone to love him who loves him back. This slowly changes when he met Old Bill. He is like a father figure to him and felt when he was staying in the carriage with Old Bill that it was his real home and only family.

Inside Old Bill would really appreciate it how Billy would make him breakfast every morning and stopped him from drinking beer as often as he would. They both worked at the cannery and earned their share. In a big return for all the good and helpful things Billy did for Old Bill he helped him out when he was having problems with the welfare people and lent him his house to cover up. Caitlin was a very generous and non-selfish girl
