And finally (just thinking of these things ::g::) it's interesting that as Wesley grows up (and presumably 'away' from his father), he actually demonstrates much more of that ruthlessness you mention than he did while in the Watchers Council employ.
In other words, what I was trying (and failing) to say, is that once Wesley has made the move out from under his father, and the Council's thumb, he actually shows much more sign of becoming his father's son, which I think is fascinating. Are the influences of the formative years so very strong, and do we become what he hate while trying hard to do the opposite?
