J. Shultz asks about pedophilia--I don't think so--and about Sev's double dose of wounds, which I think will be answered by several, so I won't get into it, and also this:
2 quoted lines
Here's another question: What does Sev wake in the cave of the Man-Apes? Is it related to the mentioning of a beast whoose mouth is a cave entrance so that those who enter are dead in its belly without knowing it? Is it Arioch or Scylla (was Scylla the one in the cave or the one in the whirlpool)?
We never get an answer to this, and it is most annoying. The sound is scary and portentous. He asks Jonas about it when he tells him of the adventure, and Jonas tells him that the monsters are water-bound but that they have "servants." And then later Sev comes out with one of those sententious statements--"I know now what the Claw had awakened" (I paraphrase, being too lazy to look it up)--and that's that, unless I've missed something. It breaks Chekhov's rule (If you brandish a gun in the first act and have not discharged it by the third, the audience will never forgive you). Grrrr. -alga-
