...youngest House, Currier rebels against the austere Harvard standard: while its façade may look like a '70s era retirement home, over the weekend this Quad pad transforms into a campus hotspot...
...they find the idea distasteful. Why is that? There's a lot of taboo when it comes to the devil and evil itself. Parishioners don't want to hear about Satan and evil and sin. Father Gary, he's in his 50s, and he was ordained in the late '70s.

He has a mild speech impediment (which sounds exactly like Phoenix’s inebriated Johnny Cash), yet can pull out dance moves no white man has possessed since the late 70s. He effortlessly seduces two beautiful women, but is gawky around his parents’ friends (especially Sandra’s father, a cookie-cutter Jewish stereotype). He’s bipolar, but rarely shows any emotion, be it depression, elation, or anything in between.Gray uses Leonard’s bipolarity...
