When we are first introduced to Brock, he doesn’t seem a likely candidate for Sheridan’s affections beyond the initial physical attraction. Why do you think Sheridan is able to open her heart to him? Have you ever dated someone much younger than yourself? How do you feel about women who date younger men?
There are many things about Déjà that Sheridan doesn’t like. Do you think Déjà is right in saying that Sheridan doesn’t think she is good enough for Christopher? What reasons do you think are significant enough for a parent to forbid her/his teenager from dating someone? Where do you draw the line between a difference in taste and knowing that a relationship is a bad idea?
When Sheridan and Quentin explain to Déjà that Christopher is too young to marry her, Sheridan recalls being on the receiving end of a similar lecture from her own father. What is different about Sheridan and Quentin’s young, rushed marriage and Déjà and Christopher’s situation?
10. Do you think Quentin was ever truly in love with Sheridan, or do you think he married his best friend, someone he could make a life with, in order to cover up his repressed homosexuality? What is the difference? Do you feel any sympathy for Quentin?
