Lying to Protect Your Feelings | |
| Love Me Tender / int_fc5e7c2e | comment |
Lying to Protect Your Feelings: Cathy urges Vance at first to be honest with Clint that they were courting and planned on getting married, knowing that Clint looks up to his big brother and would understand; instead, Vance tells him they were only "good friends" so he doesn't realize he was the Romantic Runner-Up. Between Cathy's obvious unrequited love and the later appearance of deception on Vance's part, this only serves to make Clint believe his brother's a cheating rat who's been deceiving him all this time. | |
