The memory of Jack is safe with Ennis. Ellery is NOT Jack. And a very poor substitute.

Meanwhile back at the Stallion Bar, Jim decides everyday is casual Friday.

The memory of Jack is safe with Ennis. Ellery is NOT Jack. And a very poor substitute.

Then you didn't read ALL 245 chapters then.   Ellery is a good man.   And he Loves Ennis alot.    And doesn't Ennis deserve someone who loves him?    

[scudder]

There is a trust building between Ennis and Ellery.  That trust is building and so is their sexual sophistication.  They trust each other!  They are getting more and more comfortable with each other. They can talk to each other about sex and about their work and various troubles.

Trust and Love and Comfort and Support!

Jim keeps acting up like this, he's not going to have that job for very long!

Just wait until Ennis comes in and see's him.

"The memory of Jack is safe with Ennis."
True ...

"Ellery is NOT Jack"
True ...

"And a very poor substitute."
You must care alittle bit for Ellery because I am assuming you have read all the 245 chapters David mentioned earlier! 
Otherwise why would you even bother...?

Ditto what Lucise and David said here. 

Ellery is a good good man, definitely worthy of Ennis’ love.

Did Louise really think she could go off and do things like eat...and rest....and sleep....and maybe even drink a glass of wine? When this is what we expect of her?
