Nothing seems to be true, factual, or anything that resembles the expected. When we learn that Michal was never really even tortured, it reminded me of the famous psychological experiment where people pushed an inactive button and willingly tortured other humans for the sake of conforming. Why Michal lies about the third death and its connection to the third story beats me, but it's an interesting twist when it is revealed that this too is but a lie.
Third story:
"The Tale of the Town on the River" (Act I) - I thought it was cool how McDonagh linked the tale of the Pied Piper with Katurian's third story. So I guess that kid wasn't playing this little piggy anymore after that hooded man left town. I suppose the story meant that fate has a funny way of playing tricks; that something that seems a hinder may be a help in another situation. Ok. So then what?
Fourth story:
"The Little Jesus" - Pretty sick. Parents can be cruel, but hey, put the girl on pills. I know having a daughter who is delusional can't be fun, but hey, that was a nasty punishment for a girl who thought she was Jesus. Could have been worse. She could have told people she was the devil.
Fifth story:
"The Little Green Pig" - So sweet. I loved how it ended. I was relieved that for a moment, the stories weren't Aesop Fables translated by this creep.
