Summer and Smoke Act 1 scene 2

• Alma is with Dr. Bunchanan in his office. The script days they have a father-daughter type fondess between them but I don't find that very apparent in the conversation between the two.
  


• Roger Doremus is mentioned again. He has asked for Alma's hanf in marriage!! But he sounds kind of boring. He plays the horn and teaches Sunday School. Alma isn't really attracted to him. She respects him.
  


• John Sr. is so like his son: evasize, leading, vague/ He's also not afraid to ask Alma how important sex and passion is to her in marriage. He gets angry at her for being so, "God-damn touchy." I don't like how he talks to her. She wasn't doing anything wrong.



• Alma tells Dr. she doesn't know what to do. She fears that Roger is her last suitor at her age.



• John Sr. appears to know things that he isn't saying. That's one of my biggest pet peeves! Stop alluding to information you don't plan to expose.
  


• Apparently John has been spending some "special time" with Rosa Gonzales. He also gambles and drinks. A complete opposite of Roger?


• Even John's father has issues with him-but of course he loves his son.
