They ... be siblings because George keeps talking about "your aunt Clara".
They ... be related.
Lennie ... be mentally retarded because of the way he speaks and he keeps forgetting things.
Lennie ... have committed a crime in Weed, because they got chased out of town because of something Lennie had done.
