Stradlater, Holden’s roommate, shows phoniness by how he is a “secret slob” also how it annoys Holden to where he gets into a fight with Stradlater over his sloppiness with Jane, which leads Holden to alienating him.

This is showing Stradlater is a secret slob because he appears all right on the outside, but once someone gets to know him, they know he is slob.

An example of one of these instances would be when she enters Crooks house and starts talking to Lennie, Candy, and Crooks (77). She is portrayed as a 'tart' (28) and as a flirtatious lady who is going to cause the men trouble (32).

When she reaches the Scott’s house at the end of the story, she apologizes for her hat because she thinks that it is out of place of where she is.
Keller knew how Paul’s music would sound like and crushed Paul’s smugness about his ability, which was less accomplished than he believed.
