The father washes his hands of his son, so the boy is forced to set out alone to try and find fear, hoping that by doing so he’ll fit in, that finally he’ll belong. That maybe once he can shudder, he’ll be able to go home. That’s a line that always got me, that part about the shudder and going home.
