kim is the only innocent in this. t-dog is going thru a hormonal phase, a manopausal orgy of frantic reclamation of his youth. this feature evolved in the male brain so that the organism has a better chance of spreading its seed before it becomes too old to do so. thats what a mid life crisis is, one last burst of intense hormones to make you fuck as much as possible. its a dangerous and scary time. so the tragedy is that its not entirely t-dogs fault, its his brain that is doing this. nevertheless we cant simply take the view that man is an animal with no choice to rein in his lesser instincts. its a quandry.
meanwhile jim and steve continue to do well, providing an example of how a couple can age gracefully yet still maintain a vitalistic style and important presence as a leading power couple in the indie scene.
