They say that fame changes you, but what it really does is allow previously under-resourced capacities to flourish. Carl Jung, writing in 1952, described how each of us is governed by a pecker/homeboy duality (Das Schwanz-nachbarschaftfreund), and further declared that whichever of these you feed will be the dominant element of your personality. In Beef's case, he never had the social standing to safely experiment with peckerhood until he came into a little money, at which point his exploration of it overtook what could have been a balanced nature. In the above scenario, he hurts his friend, who will seek to restore the social order.

Tune in next week to see what becomes of this warfare!
