Really good point on the growth we see in terms of how they end up side by side but also being so explicit that Luca is never cruel. Watching it, I was worried he was about to be traumatized like Carmy. Being delicate is such a consistent thing for Marcus, like you described with the hand holding and cooking but also his non verbal as he gets engaged in making the cakes and donuts. Thank you for writing on this

I’ve been showing the show to a few people lately, and it’s been cool seeing in the first-ever episode how Marcus is more antagonistic and stubborn. He’s less receptive to change. And then when he sees Carmy’s accomplishments, he sees what he could be and what Carmy is trying to build. He softens. I love that word you used: delicate. He learns to be more delicate. Thank you for the thoughtful comment, Onyi. I appreciate you.
