Montag has a sudden change of thought. What occurrences/events happen that leads to this abrupt change? How does Clarisse actually change him?
Trouble:
Montag is curious before he meets Clarisse, so she doesn’t exactly change his perspective and curiosity about the life and society he lives in, as well as his relationship towards Clarisse and Beatty.

Situation-Status Quo:
Montag is as curious before he meets Clarisse, as he is after he meets her. For example, he questions things about the Mechanical Hound. He fears the Hound and is very paranoid about what it’ll do to him. He wonders why it tries to attack him over and over again.

Claim:
The reason Montag has this unexpected change of thought introduced by Clarisse rather than a new change of thought is because Clarisse allowed him to take his “happy” mask off by opening him to the truth that blinded him to see himself living a “happy” life in the “happy” society. We can see how Montag’s thoughts simply alter rather then grow from a new “seed” in exploring the relationship and interactions between him and Clarisse. It is evident that Montag is curious before the two meet each other, but as they begin to talk more and more, he views life with a different perspective.

Reorder your sentences (S-T-Q-C):
Montag is curious and questions many things at the beginning of the book, but then the way he thinks suddenly changes after he meets Clarisse. If he doesn’t begin to think from a fresh and completely different way, then how does Clarisse actually shift his thinking and development? Clarisse simply introduces Montag to unmask his perspective, as he now understands that the world he’s been living in and calling “happy,” isn’t so “happy” after all, as well as the fact that he now thinks deeper and begins to realize and understand that he doesn’t know much about his relationship with Mildred, or even the one he formed with himself.
