Wow,some very heavy homosexual references here. Especially about jenson. The meaning of this gay plot could be that Chalmers had a girlfriend who loved him and he loved her but he was melancholy to the point of suicide because he was gay and so ran to San Francisco and met Jenson and then he came out and they lived together as a gay couple in isolation under the cover of his being the butler. Then his girlfriend Evelyn who still loves him, and is upset at his rejection of her, tells him of her love life pursuits which disturb him to such a degree that he wants to kill her loves. But why does he kill her loves if he doesn't even want her? Because on some level he does love her ?
