changes his mind. Some people say that the end is very weak. His son is a schoolboy, wants his father to write an essay for him. The beginning of action coinsides with eastern, the passion of christ. This is when Ethans own passion symbolically begins. His final downfall coinsides with the 4th of July. The most important christain holiday and political holiday somehow frame Ethans change and it shows that corruption is all persuasive.
