Hammond gets chummy with the natives

this makes me physically ill btw. in most productions he walks offstage as soon as natalie enters at the end of the reprise; often he runs to avoid her. she stands in his place, the one who is alive, the one dan needs to pay attention to.

but here he lingers to see their conversation. to be dismissed. to see if they're truly not going to talk about him. and he leaves when they don't, lingering in the shadows during the closing number. but this is also dan acknowledging who his son might have been for the first time, the way diana did. and he wants to think that gabe would say goodbye to his sister.

When the Good Place said “Why choose to be good every day when there is no guaranteed reward now or in the afterlife… I argue that we choose to be good because of our bonds with other people and our innate desire to treat them with dignity. Simply put, we are not in this alone.”
