Connor's motivation was simple: make them suffer and hopefully regret their decision-let them know for the rest of their lives what a horrible mistake they made. He decided that he would "kill his parents with kindness." Connor remained on his best behavior: bringing home flowers for his mother, which she cried over for hours, bringing home a science test with a B-plus, the best grade he had ever gotten in science, which made his father confused and lost in thought. He kept what he knew to himself, kept it even from his parents. He held his temper and kept his emotions hidden. The unfairness of it had made Connor want to break something-but he didn't. The date on the order was the day before the flight to the Bahamas.
He went looking for it and, instead, found the unwind order, signed in old-fashioned triplicate-the yellow copy that would accompany Connor to his end, and the pink that would stay with his parents, the white copy already gone off with the authorities. But when he realized there were only three tickets-for his parents and brother-he, Connor initially thought that his ticket had simply been misplaced. When Connor was sixteen, while looking for a stapler in his dad's home office, he found airplane tickets to the Bahamas where they were planning on going for a family vacation over Thanksgiving break.
He became one of the key players to putting an end to unwinding, all the while still being on the run from their enemies. Set to be unwound when he was sixteen, he was able to run away, had at one point led the Whollies of the Graveyard, and, through it all, became the face of anti-unwinding activities. His absence will only make his presence greater.Ĭonnor Lassiter, famously known as the " Akron AWOL", is a former AWOL fugitive who was hunted down by Proactive Citizenry and the National Juvenile Authority for his acts against unwinding.
Now he embraces it, and in defiance of his unwinding, he shifts his identity from himself, to his legend. All this time he recoiled at being called the Akron AWOL.
