Quote #4
And even though Frankie found the meetings disorganized and their Halloween ideas dumb, she wanted to be part of it. They had such a large part of Matthew's heart, and Matthew had them. (26.47)
It's a bummer that Frankie can't be a part of the group that Matthew's involved in. She can't even be considered because she's a girl. But we have to wonder why she wants to be a member of the group in the first place. For a girl who claims to want to take down the old boys' club, she sure wants to be a member of it. Does she want to make them more inclusive, or is it that she really wants to be part of something that's exclusive?
Quote #5
It was difficult to explain. "They won't let me in," Frankie finally said. (27.24)
You're right, it is a bit difficult to explain. Frankie wants to feel included in an exclusive group. Frankly, it's a bit of a paradox. No wonder she's so confused.
Quote #6
They were going through life together—whether the pranks they pulled were dumb or brilliant. She was going through life with no one. (33.23-24)
Ah, the sense of brotherhood. Even though the dogs are kind of ridiculous (we mean, English muffin eating dares?), Frankie still envies what they have. But couldn't she have it without joining the Order? We mean, it's not like she's without friends. She could go find some more and choose to go through life with them.
