I'm worried about Margot making demands on Owen that he just doesn't need. I hope she doesn't act like a selfish wet blanket and try to manipulate Owen. She already has a girlfriend and has created this elaborate chessboard that ultimately serves her interests above the true happiness of Owen. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but I've met girls like her before that are very clever at always getting what they want, and being quite selfish in reality.
The one thing that gives me tremendous hope is Ryder. He will see straight through any hypocrisy, if it arises in the future. He's going to help Owen grow a pair of balls and stop being such a push over.
Can't wait until Ryder and Owen meet in person! If you've been trodden on all your life, a "Ryder" personality type is the best type of guy to help you stand with a straight back and look people directly in the eye.
