Tim hates the villa. He knows it's part of the role they play, his friends and he. Despising Vanessa's rich parents, their Persian rugs, gold-framed portraits and elaborate breakfast tables is all part of the rebellion game.

It's more than that, though. These walls transform people. Next to his snooty fiancée, even Julian looks like a stranger: a handsome Ken doll with empty eyes, not his dorky guileless brother. It terrifies Tim more than he could ever admit, and so he smashes dishes and defiles walls until Julian yells at him, looking disappointed. Disappointment is okay. It's better than indifference.

Wow, Aldi, what a powerful punch you've packed in these 100 words. It makes so much sense too, explaining why he'd act out. And to see Julian as more than a handsome Ken doll too, <3333333333333 I loved those moments in Show when the brothers would be adorable, and it's lovely to see how Tim sees him that way too.

I love this so much! And dammit, yes, this was the first time I shook my head in disbelief at show, how they could not, for the life of them,
give Julian more than Ken doll material. And the brothers story would have called for it. Man, why didn't you take over show from the very beginning?
