And how do you forget about it to make this kind of mix up?

Seriously why the gently caress does that even exist or is just left sitting around?

It seems really odd to assume that the ivy near the top of a window would support the weight of a climbing human. I guess if she was climbing primarily the wall, and the ivy was a slight aid and possible impediment...

But how was the reader supposed to know that the ivy was pristine at ground-level?

It was the water bottle in the cage that makes transformations permanent.

Macanudo is always poo poo, but usually I can at least tell what it was trying to do. Mostly it's trying to be cute or whimsical and failing so loving hard it hurts. But this? Is it an attempt at a joke? Is there a reference I'm missing?

I got that far on my own, but what's the joke? Where's the alfalfa? There's no pun if it's just replacing one word with another word with no context and for no reason.

He's on top of the bales which are presumably alfalfa, a common animal feed. There's nothing else. It's poo poo.

I mean, it makes sense. Cooper and Marla are alike in that they yearn for something better, think they're smarter than their bosses, but are unwilling or unable to pursue an alternate path. Marla has contemplated starting her own business several times, but never does. Cooper skipped college (to take care of his sick mom, to be fair, if I'm recalling correctly) but also never quits after all the poo poo his manager puts him through.

Marla making an effort at self-improvement highlights that Cooper isn't making that effort himself. He's trying to keep her down at his level.
