Vada's prank with Grandmoo


Given that Vada thought that her grandmother could at some time come out of her dementia state, does anybody else think her prank of making the boys think Grandmoo was the new corpse that got up and walked off was kind of mean? Not to the boys, but in regards to her grandma?

I guess she was mean if you're talking realistic standards, but I didn't care to notice. I just took her prank as a character trait, and as a successful foil to bullies.

I don't know, maybe it was a little cruel but we don't actually know what their relationship was like before the dementia hit. Maybe Vada & grandmoo joked like that...
