How do I explain Plato's allegory of the cave to my cat?

gato’s allegory of the fishtank

#this is such a fundamental difference between angel and darla #because now they have both gotten their souls back #and angel has accepted his and decided to try to make up for what he’s done #but darla can’t deal with hers and can’t wait to lose it again #honestly i don’t think i could be as strong as angel #i think i’d be like darla in the same situation #i wouldn’t be able to deal with the consequences of everything #and i’d want to stop feeling the guilt #i’d rather completely lose my soul than be damned by it #but angel… he just takes it and accepts it and lets it make him stronger #and that’s what this whole show was about

trip and t'pol's relationship was unhinged actually. wdym they spent a year feeling each other up every night all because trip had insomnia. wdym they met their lovechild from an alternate future and he inherited his mom's ears and his dad's penchant for melodrama. wdym they banged and t'pol played it off as "an experiment" but they accidentally bonded so hard they became mates and started appearing in each other's daydreams. wdym trip's clone spilled the beans about trip's feelings to t'pol and admitted she was all he could think about. wdym trip was t'pol's only guest when she went home for her sham forced marriage and their love was so obvious that t'pol's mother spotted it instantly. wdym their love was so renowned that a xenophobic hate group used their DNA to create a secret love child in order to prove to humanity that interspecies relationships were wrong.
