ADD NOTES- This is one of those episodes that does little to "spoil" the novel. While Wield's angst over coming out and his relationship with the young interloper--who is even younger in the novel--adheres to Hill's original, the rest of his half of the plot has been almost totally revamped for the screen. The story behind the Hubie family and the mysterious son, meanwhile, has almost no relationship to the novel whatsoever. Edit
