When we look closely, we realize that the three characters who bear the brunt of the same mass crime are not treated in the same way.

Bert, who showed remorse and seemed the least comfortable with it all, died in the most cruel and humiliating way. Reiner, who showed remorse, is still alive, but is regularly punished by the narrative and has even become the butt monkey of the rest of the cast in addition to being suicidal. Annie, who showed no remorse, is still alive, has never been punished in any way by either the narration or the rest of the cast, and is on the way to receiving her happy ending. Many think it's because she's a pretty girl, unlike the other two. lool
