Anybodys' Betrayal of Anita:
Anybodys, a tough, straight tomboy, fought hard to be accepted as an equal by the Jets, by proving that she was a girl who could take care of herself. That was admirable, in a good way. There are plenty of straight tough girls in real life who are able to take care of themselves, which she also did by In fact, I've known afew, but that's another subject.
When Anita, albeit reluctantly, at Maria's request, goes to Doc's store to give Tony the message that Chino was gunning for him, the Jets, who wanted to protect Tony from Chino (after Anybodys had found Tony, and he was hiding out in the cellar of Doc's Candy Store), the Jets block her way, and begin to insult, humiliate and to rough her up.
When Anita says please, and Action blows cigarette smoke in her face, and the mockery and the insults directed at Anita for her nationality, ethnicity and culture, Action says "Even a greaseball's got feelings."
Unfortunately, however, Anybodys makes an already bad situation worse when she betrayed Anita by saying, "But she wants to help get Tony!", and Anita loudly says "No!", Anybodys sort of spoiled what she'd worked so hard for, because she then acted way worse than the Jets, in a way, by being the final instigator of the Jets, who then launched an all-out attack, rife with insults, and resulting in the attempted sexual assault on Anita by the Jets, which was only torpedoed by the fact that Doc came in just in time. In exasperation and anger, Doc finally said to the jets "You make this world lousy!" and Action said, "We didn't make it, Doc!". In exasperation and frustration, Doc finally says "Get outta here!"
Had Anybodys not spouted off the phrase, "But she wants to help get Tony", but instead came to Anita's defense and encouraged the Jets to allow Anita to help protect Tony against Chino, the Jets might not have molested Anita, at least not to the extent that they did, Tony would've been alive and together with Maria, and the Jets and Sharks might've formed a truce and become friends.
