[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How were you not moved by that? He hears Rebecca crying, so he goes and sacrifices his pride by going to his Dad, whom he probably hasn't seen in years and who doesn't even know he's married, and asking for money. His Dad assumes that he is a loser who needs it for gambling, so he just agrees that he's a loser so that his Dad can feel good and give him the money. He puts himself through this humiliating experience so that he can buy a house for his wife and triplets. [/quote]
New PP, but I think my lack of being moved by much of what Jack does is that I think he's a bit of a controlling a$$ (a bit like Jess on GG, actually).  I know we're supposed to think it's a grand gesture that he hears Rebecca crying so he goes and surprises her with a house, but I don't feel that way.  I feel like he went and bought a house without even talking to her about it!  All of it comes back to the first episode where he refuses to let the doctor have a conversation about what to do if something goes wrong with the delivery, even when Rebecca is saying she wants to have that conversation.  It's always about Jack being a hero and saving the day.[/quote]
