Bill's expression, in the foreground, is by now so tight and working with suppressed and conflicting feelings that it's hard to read, but one of those feelings is clearly fear for his life--he looks as though he might burst into tears or hysterical laughter, and when Victor claps those patronizing hands on his shoulders, he flinches. I am very pleased to include a new link to resources kindly contributed by Steve Bassett of the Sociology Department of Park College Eastbourne.
