About Reed going on a rant toward Missy...
That really bugged me. The guy seems to come from the culture that prizes taking a stand against people, and he saw a chance to let Missy have it... so he calls her some names that supposedly proves he knows literature, but the great literature he chooses is Cinderella and he calls her the evil step mother because she defended her daughter a couple of times on the show and because she had been divorced a couple of times. Honestly, I don't know a lot of mothers that wouldn't have defended her daughter in a circumstance like that...

But I can understand why people wouldn't like that about her.

Here's my issue... Reed went off stealing into Keith's stuff earlier in the game, as if the game called for losing lack of morals and decency, so he went for it. It did actually work towards the game in that it got him a little further in the game to cause some chaos, but in the end he tries to act something morally superior to Missy because of her willingness to stand up to her daughter, while completely acting justified in his own behavior for that. I find that an aspect of society that should be called out. Who gave him that moral superiority? Was it really his job to take a stand for society? When he was done he had a big smile on his face, and in the reunion show he had a big smile on his face as if his intended goal was to just make him look superior to call someone out for something really not necessary. Who gave him this right? Do we really reward people to think that it is their job to belittle people for things like this, while if it was turned on him for his own failings, would he accept the humility he was trying to force upon someone else?
