ok I can’t remember if I’ve mentioned this but I keep thinking about the story of Jack and the Beanstalk and how the best character in the whole story is only briefly mentioned. We’re given such limited amount of information about the guy that sells Jack the beans. essentially:
This guy has access to MAGIC BEANS
He either has NO USE for MAGIC BEANS or so many of them that he can just dispose of them
He really badly wants a cow
Why is the whole story not about this guy
In Into the Woods’ version of the story it sort of is.
