(just saw CC Aiken's post and I too liked that bit she quoted about the cateloguing - it showed us that rational Clark, letting us know that he would move on - it was a good way to put it.
Oh, this is interesting! Because while we both liked the same quote, Carol, we read it differently. (Surprise!!
)
To me, that look into Clark's head is a wonderful, smart way to show his deep grief. It's like he's not really there. These are events he is watching from behind a glass. Perry, Jimmy, and Bill are all free to show their feelings; something he can't even begin to do because it's too impossible
Also, when he goes home afterwards and just sits in the chair doing nothing-- same thing. I like that so much better than if he'd thrown himself to the ground, wept, wailed, primal cry, etc.
Really cool, Terry. I'm a fan.
