This scene was full of suspense and just opening the eyes of many. The entire scene was just chaos and confusion with everyone, especially with Hank and trying to decide between Della and Alice. I thought that Hank was going to choose Alice, seeing as though Della was never realy there anymore, and she was frightened that things had changed. I felt bad for Hank because he had to make a big decison on the spot, and the pressure must have been intense, it would have been horrible to deal with.
"But I love you...(Both GIRLS turn, HENRY looks at ALICE, then the whole group upstage of him. Still turning, HE looks at DELLA and goes to embrace her. The freeze ends and other people enter.)" pg.92
This specific quote was said by Hank when he finally got out of prison, it is a bit difficult at first to understand who he says this to, but as the play goes on, it is clear that he is saying this to Della. He says it after the confusion finally ceases and he remembers who he really loves.
This is important in understanding how Hank is. Alice was always there for him during prison, during his tough times, lonley times, and his uncertainty, but Della was there before EVERYTHING. This quote caught my attention because I really wanted to know who Hank was going to choose, Della, or Alice. Once reading this and reading about what he did after saying it, it ws clear that he had his mind made up and he was going to stick true with his "esa".
QUESTION:Was it hard to figure out who Hank was going to choose? Do you think that he made an honest choice, or was it because he was thinking about what was going on at the time of all the confusion?
