Oh, thanks.

Gillenormand sounds like an evangelical Republican, doesn't he? Very rich and there's only one proper way of living and he's willing to disown his son for not obeying his strictures. And, of course, he coerces an adoption so that the child will be brought up "correctly."

Tholomyes reminds me of the Dems in the 1980s. There were a LOT of sex scandals then (not all Dems, but the majority).
