AT THE END OF THE FINAL CHAPTER, WE DISCOVER THE COLONEL WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH CELINE.
HOW DOES MARK DISCOVER THIS?
CELINE GETS PREGNANT WITH A BABY THAT’S NOT MARK’S
THIS WOULD EXPLAIN ONE OF THE COLONEL’S LINES THAT HAS BEEN BOTHERING ME THIS ENTIRE TIME
WE ALL THOUGHT IT WAS “AH, SUN, COME OUT NOW”
BUT IT WAS ACTUALLY “AH, SON, COME OUT NOW”
WHAT
Maybe that’s what the “hunting trip gone wrong” deal is. The Colonel takes his son out hunting and his son ends up dead somehow.
Probably why Celine wears veils in front of her face as well. To mourn.
It’s obvious that The Colonel is a little crazy when he’s first introduced, and perhaps losing his son on the “Safari Trip Gone Wrong” was when that first bit of madness set in.
