In the wedding it seemed like an enormous amount of energy was going to toward keeping Jake in line and taking it deeper it does seem as though the bulk of that energy is covering up for something else. I understand where you are coming from with this and I think it is a definate possibility that Eric's love for april was born out of an idea Eric had about who he wanted himself to be. They may have conspired together to create an identity for their young selves. I do not think this would be unusual, in fact I think it happens all the time.terocioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07397441938526847939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479486285558251105.post-4735957320482012742008-08-19T22:29:00.000-04:002008-08-19T22:29:00.000-04:00Great in-depth analysis!

I still have an odd sense of more beneath the surface of Eric, April, and Mary's complicated relationships. When I watch the wedding flashbacks, I cannot help but feel there was a lot of surface there - Eric may well have done what his family expected him to do when he married April. I'm sure he loved her, in his way, but family expectations trumped personal feelings in Eric's world, IMHO.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479486285558251105.post-55252781305603658672008-08-19T16:28:00.000-04:002008-08-19T16:28:00.000-04:00It seems odd on the surface, how we can hurt those...It seems odd on the surface, how we can hurt those we claim to care so much for. When you delve a little deeper you uncover things you never thought about - again you make me think. I think this entire episode is about questioning your position in life, even your own authority when faced with adversity and loss. It deals with what the heart wants, our desires – despite what our head says. And you come to understand that some victories are not always the result of what we do, but rather what we don't do. I'm interested to read your third part now :-)<BR/><BR/>NightShadeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
