Mayella reacts with anger and defensiveness when Atticus questions her during the trial. Her reaction reveals her insecurity and vulnerability, as well as her fear of being exposed for lying about Tom Robinson's actions. Mayella's behavior also demonstrates her deep-seated prejudice and her willingness to scapegoat an innocent man.
