The Final Girl of the original Friday the 13th, Alice, *isn't* purer than her colleagues She smokes weed with them, she plays strip Monopoly with them, and she's implied to be having sex with Mr. Christy, her older boss (which is much more scandalous than Jack and Marcie)

Pamela Voorhees *doesn't* judge her as being more worthy to live than the others, indeed the fact that she's the Final Girl means she's the one Pamela delivers her whole rant about irresponsible fornicating youths to And Jason kills her off right away in Pt. 2
