Dandy is a complex and tragic character. He is a product of his upbringing, having been raised by an overbearing mother who instilled in him a sense of entitlement and superiority. Dandy is also a deeply insecure individual, constantly seeking validation from others. His obsession with the freak show stems from his desire to be seen as special and unique. However, his attempts to join the show are ultimately met with rejection, as he is seen as an outsider by the other performers.
