The role of the grandmother in Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man Is Hard To Find"

We are taking a test on characterization in Flannery O'Connor's "A Good Man Is Hard To Find." Shortly before the test, James Rodriguez asks me a question.


James: "Hey Mr. Vonn, what was the name of the man who let the cat out of the basket?"

Me: "Well, the grandmother did."

James: "No, the person who let the cat out."

Me: "Yeah, that was the grandmother."

James: "Aw she did that too? Dumb bitch!"


Pretty sure that's metacognition.
