Jaime is the object of ...Don't thank me, dudes. Jaime is the object of our affection.<br /><br />I wanted to say more about Maggie's parents, but I don't know exactly how I feel about them. The break-up of the family just kind of happens, and while a lot of the blame has to go on Nacho's head, I still can't judge him for it.<br /><br />They do both use Maggie as a scapegoat - which is just horrible - but they're just ordinary people, stumbling through life and doing the best they can.<br /><br />Fucking hell.

I think its not just Maggie blaming her...thank you.<br />I think its not just Maggie blaming herself, her parents both PROJECT the problems on her... as if, if she were a little robot person, with no thoughts, goals & feelings of her own, everything would be PERFECT.<br />Quina & Nacho both use her as a scapegoat to avoid facing the fact that the family is falling apart.<br /><br />Which leads to my thought of why Nacho overreacts when Maggie tries to sit in his lap; it reminds him that his girlfriend is closer to Maggie's age than his own.<br /><br />I think the lady in the parade not only plants the seed for a career as a mechanic, but that Maggie also feels an uncomfortable attraction as well.Norn Cutsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02650978084194878199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5394310461939093453.post-50565846423048050632010-11-03T06:33:46.282+13:002010-11-03T06:33:46.282+13:00GREAT piece.
