Gavin said they both have a dream. They are drifters in a land of opportunity. The dream has really died but it's living on in Lennie who is like a child. Lennie does terrible things because of his great strength and George sticks by him because he needs him. It's a tragedy and nemesis, Lennie is going to die. It's a great drama.
