after thought

As I continue to think about this last section of the book I was wondering if Clarisse was a set up. Beatty referred to the conversation between Guy and Clarisse as if he was there. Could this have been a setup from Beatty to test Guy? Did the mechanical dog lead Beatty to think that Guy had books? Maybe Clarisse was moved around to test people and she is really not dead after all! The reason I thought of this is because she stated that she moved from another city and lived with her uncle. It might be a conspiracy!
