Heartbreaking, to think of all his effort and caring for a dumb creature being subverted into a joke. I remember the episode where his history of being locked in the closet under the stairs was revealed (the demon-possession one, although I don't remember the title) and how I felt for him. That feeling has come back a hundred-fold, because of the insensitivity and outright abuse of his father. The robot acted enough like his father that Wesley *believed* that it was him. And he still shot him without hesitation? There's so much rage bottled up inside him, and he still feels guilty. That final scene in the office chokes me up even this morning.

Wesley deals with so much baggage from his childhood and his failure with Faith. I'm astonished at how much his bumbling came from a hideous lack of self-confidence. You know he had none in himself. Gah. I just want to find him and give him a hug!
