* AlternateCharacterInterpretations: Is Gabriel a hypocritical, domineering coward through and through, unable to control his physical appetites and too self-absorbed to take the blame for his own actions, or is he a broken man with genuinely deep convictions who had a moment of weakness, was too afraid to ask for help, and is now driven by guilt and shame to lash out at those around him?
