Scene 7

"Blue Roses!- My gosh, yes- Blue Roses!"  Jim said this when he was  remembering how he and Laura went to high school together.  Laura reminded him that he called her Blue Roses.  One thing I noticed about Amanda during this scene was that she acted much different around company, especially Jim.  When Tom says that he did not pay the electric bill, she did not act very angry.  Besides this, Jim tells Laura that the girl he was supposedly engaged to, they were actually never really engaged.  The girl just said it out of wishful thinking.  The unicorn in this play actually plays a big part!  I think it was supposed to symbolize Laura, how she is different, but she is still greatly loved.  However, the ending to this play was very upsetting.  I feel that Amanda drove Tom away by always asking him questions and telling him what to do.  This is one of the main reasons why he left!
