Quote #10
The thought of them sitting peacefully together playing cards gave him the uneasy feeling they might even be married or something. But that couldn't be because it didn't make sense. In the first place why would she marry a freak like Gus? (8.30)
This particular jealous fantasy tells us a lot about how Roy thinks about marriage and domestic life. He doesn't have anyone that he can sit peacefully and play cards with, and it seems like he desperately wants that peace. He saves himself from despair by telling himself that Gus is a freak that Memo would never marry.
