The whole exchange between McLeod, Hollingsworth, Lannie, & Lovett during chapters 20 & 21 was very interesting to me. I felt like that moment in a movie where you find out that the woman's husband was really the spy the whole time or something. Lannie's character is still such a mystery to me. Lovett's whole role in the meeting still confuses me. The exchange between McLeod & Hollingsworth just seemed to create more questions in my mind than answers. What is the "thing" they're referring to? Where is McLeod even from? Who is Hollingsworth really? I hope answers will be coming soon.

I like the points that you bring up. It’s almost like the story is incomplete and in a way that kind of falls on Lovett because the entire story is being told through his perspective. This makes me think that Lovett becomes an unreliable narrator kind of in the same way that Nelly Dean was in Wuthering Heights. These characters just seemed to be present when the events of the story happened and now they are just relating the events to the reader. Maybe Lovett isn’t as innocent as he makes himself out to be and potentially he could be altering details of the story through his translation of it. Also I agree. What was his purpose for being there just to witness? I think the lack of answers points to Lovett being unreliable.
