Alan Beck is, simply put, a goody-two-shoes. He wants to be the best he can be, get the best grades that he can, and above all, he wants friends- friends that he can be the best that he can be with. Alan's help is enlisted in promoting the Karliah Project, and he goes overboard- the entire thing ends up all over the web in a matter of days. Alan doesn't mind this, and seems oblivious to Evie's desire to keep it quiet. When Evie shows Alan 'Karliah's suicide note' as 'proof' that she and Karliah were friends (which was actually a letter Evie wrote to herself), Alan takes it upon himself to publish it- to show everyone that Evie and Karliah's friendship MUST have been real. Rather quickly after this, Alan gets dropped from the project- and feels truly wronged. He didn't do anything wrong, to his knowledge, so why did Evie push him away? He doesn't know how to deal with this sadness and feelings of betrayal, so he sings them out in Good For You.
