The ''villains'' of ''Of Mice and Men''

The villains of mice and men, there aren't a lot of them mainly just one. Specifically talking about Lennie and what he does to make himself seem like a villain.

Lennie doesn't try to be a villain it just happens on accident because he underestimates his strength. Lennie's strength is also underestimated by other people in the book and the movie.

Lennie is always trying to make George happy, but he is messing up in major ways. George is always telling Lennie what to do and what not to do and Lennie is always trying hard to do what George asks of him.

 Lennie loves to touch soft thins and that is his major weakness; He and George are in weed and Lennie touches a woman's dress and she gets upset.

 Lennie and George end up having to leave  weed to escape men that are chasing after them.
When Lennie and George get away from  them and to the ranch, again George is telling Lennie what to do.

Lennie ends up getting in trouble here too. Lennie kills Curley's wife because she is trying to yell at the other men because Lennie is hurting her. Lennie was trying to feel her hair because she makes the mistake and tells him its soft.

 Lennie breaks her neck and leaves the ranch because he realizes that he made a huge mistake and now George wont let him tend the rabbits. Lennie runs away to the creek bank where George told him to go.

He gets there and starts talking to imaginary figures and one of the figures is aunt Clara. Aunt Clara is telling him that he is good for nothing and that he is always getting into trouble.

 The second figure that talks to him is a rabbit and it tells him that it is his fault he will not get to tend the rabbits. Then George showed up and tells him the story of the farm and when Lennie gets excited George ends it all. George ends the idea of a nice piece of land and rabbits that Lennie gets to tend. All that time and work ended with a bang and a flash.
