The glass menagerie is Laura's escape from reality. She is completely withdrawn from society. Her shyness and her minor disability make interactions with others difficult. She seems to care only for the little glass animals she collects, and does not seek friendship or companionship with others. This changes when Jim is invited to her home. Laura allows Jim to hold the figurine as a token of friendship. He accidentally breaks it, then announces he can not longer see Laura, as he is getting married.
