** Sandra: Did she ''really'' know about Greg and Jeremy's secret relationship like Jeremy believes, or was she ignorant/in denial of it? If she ''did'' know about it, did she have any idea just how abusive and depraved Greg was towards Jeremy, or did she think it was consensual? Aside from that issue, there's also the question of what kind of mother Sandra really is. On one hand, her fragility and mental health issues take an enormous toll on Jeremy, as he feels [[LoveMartyr he needs to be the responsible one and always put her happiness first, even if it means hurting himself.]] On the other hand, it's clear that Sandra really does love Jeremy and is just as much of a victim of her mental illness as Jeremy is.

** Greg: A sadistic, paranoid bastard who abuses and manipulates people around him for his own pleasure? Or a Woobie who only wanted to have a happy life and family, but because of the actions of others, had his desires turn dark in pursuit of that life?
