Anya ,'Bring On The Night'
To be determined... (but it's definitely [NAFDA])
The other odd take in the blogs is presuming it's all a dream sequence of some kind.
Clearly they have not been watching their Fellini and Antonioni. Their heads would explode if they saw Last Year at Marienbad. Or possibly they would expire from ennui.
Yeah, I was going to note that Faulkner isn't the type to reveal the murderer on the last page.
Funny, I wrote a post saying the same thing and then deleted it. Yeah, the last paragraphs of The Sound And The Fury are beautiful, but not exactly revelatory. At least, any more revelatory than the rest of the book.

Yeah, I saw that and was all, WTF?!? They think this is Dallas?

Or just be really, really bored, man.

Well, it felt like one. But that's not the same.
I'm not sure they are all that innocent. I think their mention of having been in Don's wallet will come back later.

Oh Lord, I just had interesting visions of them showing up in the NY 'burbs

I think I saw that in an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show. There was wackiness.
But maybe they just have more money than sense.
I'm still trying to decode some of the stuff dealing with that. Don asked at dinner if they were well-off and got silence. That could either mean they refused to answer because it was considered a crass question or they didn't have a good answer because they're all a big pile of mooches. But then Joy said they move around for tax purposes. I haven't figured that one out yet, doubt I will as my knowledge of tax law is nil.
BTW, how much do I love buffistas that so many of us were appalled that Don defaced the Faulkner novel.
Then hours later, there is a discussion about how the final page of the novel isn't exactly revelatory, so it didn't matter anyway.
Gotta love it.

I thought that it was because it was a crass question. One of the women made a disgusted sound when he asked.

That's not the point! If you haven't read the book, you don't know! Principle!
