The+Director+meets+his+family

melissa yang, Robbie

 What:
 * Bernard reveals what he brought back from the Reservation to the Director, Linda and John
 * The Director pretends he does not recognize Linda and acts disgusted but then Linda accuses the Director of making her have a baby
 * The people around them, witnessing the whole thing are hysterical laughing at the Director's expense
 * Then John falls to the Directors feet and screams "My father!" but the Director could no longer take the humiliation nor accept the truth, and leaves overwhelmed

Why:
 * This scene reveals a lot of important characterization about the Director
 * Instead of owning up to his actions in the past, he tries to act like he did nothing wrong and ignore the problem
 * He does not want to be humiliated in front of the public, and is obviously embarrassed by Linda and John
 * He would rather keep silent and not do what he knows is right, than be viewed negatively by society

How:   
 * Bernard and the Director are having a conversation in public
 * Bernard shows the Director Linda and John in front of everybody
 * The Director is mortified and everyone who is witnessing is laughing hysterically because of what Linda and John had said
 * This scene displays good detail of the situation that the Director is put in, and the reader can almost feel bad and understand why he is humiliated and runs away
