Safe As House Character Analysis
"Safe as Houses" is a transitory episode that gives a happy closure to the first possession case of the season. Concurrently, it gives us more background to the main plot of the season revolving around the foster home on Island. Thankfully, Father Bennett makes his first appearance in this season. Being the true fighter that he is, he is still striving to save the Catholic Church and the world from the wicked forces. Nonetheless, the unholy powers keep on infiltrating the Vatican hierarchy. He has very few allies anymore. Most of them are dead, captured or hunted. Therefore, he has to cover his tracks extremely well and protect Father Marcus and the other rebels that fight against evil. At the same time, the mystery around the foster house …show more content…
Tomas's recklessness and Caleb's lie are suggestive of the ways that the demons infiltrate in their mentalities. In Tomas's case, he is viewing himself as the Messiah who has the power to heal the possessed ones by dealing with the demons, face to face. However, his impetuous confidence in his power will likely lead him to underestimate the evil spirits and thus expose himself to their darkness. An indication that this scenario will probably happen is the vision where he is in the confessional and the demon is whispering to him "He is afraid of you, Tomas. He is afraid of what you can do." Therefore, the demon, by strengthening his ego and planting the seeds of jealousy and vanity, intends to disrupt Toma's relationship with Marcus. The other traces that the demon left behind on last Friday's episode was Caleb's lie which made Andy lose Verity's trust. Andy is confused regarding what is happening to the children and feels like something is terribly wrong. Caleb's lie is the first obvious proof that the spirit is taking over his consciousness since Caleb wouldn't deceive Andy to hurt Verity and create havoc in their house.

Clearly, the residents of the foster house will need to gather their mental strength to battle with what lies ahead. Father Tomas and Marcus relationship will be challenged and their faith in each other will be tested possibly to the point of separation. Hopefully, Tomas will realize that his power can be seen as a gift and a weakness considering it can be easily exploited by the demons. The third episode could be the link between our priests and the foster house

    Instinct, something we all have, is necessary for survival. If we did not have instinct, we wouldn’t have learned anything and wouldn’t know what to do if there ever was a crisis. “I’ll give him a trail to follow…” (Connell, 11). As he was being hunted Rainsford’s, the protagonist from “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell, primary instinct was to trick General Zaroff, the antagonist who hunts humans, and this instinct saved his life. “...dad’s star might have moved further… playing a solo…” (Dominey, 235). Tatum, the main character in Audition and Subtraction by Amy Fellner Dominy, learned from past experience that playing her instrument cheered her up. When her parents got a divorce, she used this instinct to her advantage and threw herself into her music by playing a solo for district honor band auditions. In the article “Surviving Hurricane Sandy” ,by Lauren Tarshis, “[Ariel Creamer] created a program called Survivor’s Silver Lining… helped numerous kids…” (17). Her instinct was to take her good fortune of surviving and give back to her community. All these people above had used their instinct to their advantage in order to survive, much as you will or have done in times of crisis.…

    President John F. Kennedy once said that, “conformity is the jailer of freedom and the enemy of growth.” This concept has been seen through centuries of civil rights movements and literature by renowned authors such as Franz Kafka and Henrik Ibsen. Franz Kafka’s short story, “The Metamorphosis,” illustrates the life of traveling salesman Gregor Samsa, the breadwinner of his family who seems to face a transformation that affects his role in his house and society. This change into an unknown insect, both physical and mental, ultimately leads to his loss of humanistic characteristics and eventually death. In Henrik Ibsen’s play A Doll’s House, a young woman named Nora surpasses the bounds of a housewife when attempting to save her husband’s life.…
