It's a chip n' dip. We got two.It's practically four of something.
>>221870702Why was he so mean to Trudy
>>221870753HELL'S BELLS TRUDY!!!!!!!1Also Pete was the best character. Roger 2nd best. Harry Crane did nothing wrong
>>221870753She was barren and therefore useless
>OH N-
>>221870753the king ordered it
>>221870753Cause Trudy represents the oppressive manipulation of Pete's life which kept Pete under its yoke, ensuring he would never create anything of his own - his career, his home, his money, even children. He projected his own frustrations on to her.That's why he had to leave and come back when he had finally created something of his own and could stand on equal footing with her
>>221870753Because Trudy's parents were loaded asf and Pete had an inferiority complex. He wanted it all and wanted to earn it including becoming a father and Trudy was barren so he was projecting his insecurities onto her.
>>221870753The subtext of their marriage is that it was basically arranged by their parents, Trudy's nouveau riche family getting to marry into genuine NYC aristocracy in exchange for providing them with a cash infusion they desperately needed, genuine love for each other never entered into it and Pete was probably too young and immature to be married at that point anyways
