Modhesh

It's about time that Edgar take me o the secrets of all these.  I understand if it took a while.  There were a lot of things to consider.

But then, even if we have the chance to know it, he knows we will not know everything.  He repeatedly said that.  How much we are to know, we are still to find out.

On his first show - the opening night - Jack and Wireman were late.  At this point, Elizabeth was 'out,' and has been out for a while now.  I have never been so touched about how Wireman cried for Elizabeth's condition [she doesn't even remember their names.]  When late became even later, Edgar became worried but couldn't do anything.  He had so many guests from his 'other life' back home.

But they came.

And they came with a surprise.  Because they came with Elizabeth Eastlake; this wasn't part of the plan.  Everyboy at the studio was awed simply by her presence.  She is what Wireman calls 'The Daughter of the Godfather."  Mary Ire later called her, "Well-known art patron."  But is she?  Was she?

Just as her entrance came as a surprise, her exodus was even more surprising.

And I think her leaving was the genesis of an entourage of an even more powerful series of revelations.

And the death begins.

BETWEEN THE LINES
Pain is the biggest power of love.
The loss of memory isn't always the problem; sometimes - maybe even often - it's the solution.
The bravery is in the doing, not the showing.
Because forgetting isn't always involuntary. Sometimes it's willed.
*Modhesh is the arabic word for Surprise!
