Wait!
Fuck!
How did it take me this long to realise the significance of Hickey tossing Thomas Johnson's severed arm at Crozier's feet?!
Thomas Johnson - Boatswain's Mate, Antarctic veteran and, most importantly, the man who whipped Hickey to a bloody pulp on Crozier's orders!
How did I fail to appreciate the raw fucking power of hacking off the very arm that hacked at you first?
Of taking the very hand used as a tool to oppress and do violence to you, stripping it of its power, and leaving it, raw and bleeding, right on your perceived-oppressor's doorstep?

In 4th grade, my bff was in a death feud over chess with a boy in our class but instead of competing like normal people they decided that the best way to determine who was chess master was for each of them to select one of the two biggest idiots in class and teach them to play chess, My Fair Lady style, and see whose idiot won. We are just now, 22 years later, grappling with the moral implications of this exercise.
