Blog 16: Scene from O

The scene I chose was one between Hugo and Michael. It takes place after Michael gets in trouble for fighting with Roger. Hugo tells Michael that he needs to get Desi to talk Odin into helping him get back on the team. In the beginning of the conversation Hugo says to Michael, "Am I your boy? Am I your boy?" And he says yes. It just shows how good Hugo is at manipulating people. He makes them trust him and pretends that he is helping them for their own good. So then Hugo moves forward with his plan to take down Odin by telling Michael that he needs to hang out with Desi as much as possible to get her to talk to Odin for him. Michael is just wanting back on the team, he doesn't know that Hugo is setting him up to make Odin mad. Hugo is a great manipulator. I have never come across manipulation like this in my life, but I think there are many people out there just as manipulative as Hugo.
