Very good! One question though, is: "'Mark has got his work.' They say 'Mark lives for his work.' And 'Mark's in love with his work.' Mark hides in his work!" When Mark counters, "From what?" Roger responds, "From facing your failure, facing your loneliness, facing the fact you live a lie. Yes, you live a lie- tell you why: You're always preaching not to be numb, when that's how you thrive. You pretend to create and observe, when you really detach from feeling alive." To which Mark replies, "Perhaps it's because I'm the one of us to survive." actually in the play? (sadly, I've only seen the movie).
