Willy & Biff

In our reading we find out what truly happened when Biff visited Willy in Boston. After flunking math, Biff goes up to Boston to see his dad since he is away on Boston. When he gets to his dad's hotel room, he is forced to beat on Willy's door constantly until he almost breaks it down. Willy doesn't answer at first because he is with another woman and isn't expecting company. After a few moments he flings the door open to find 17 year old Biff. Biff starts to tell his dad what happened with his grades and how he needs him to come home to talk to his math teacher. After a few stories are told by Biff to Willy he starts to laugh, and the woman that he had put in the bathroom before Biff's entering, began to laugh along as well. Biff confused by the third party laughter asked if anyone was in the room. Willy tells him its from the other room but Biff doesn't believe him. The woman comes out of the shower and then Willy and Biff's relationship goes down the crapper. Biff relates his father to a fake and a phony for the rest of his life. Biff is so appalled by Willy's actions that he can never look him straight in the eye again or get along with him. Willy cheating on LInda was so detrimental to Biff that he never wanted to do anything for his dad ever again and he threw his life away because of it. When ever Willy hallucinates it's of the years that he and Biff were still close and deep down Willy knows it's his fault that they no longer have the same relationship but he chooses to remember the past in the way he wants.
