I think sexuality wasn’t as clearly defined as it is now. That wasn’t really the thing, and I’m not sure Jack would describe himself as a homosexual. Tobias: He isn’t really a study in homosexuality. And yes, it’s hugely dysfunctional, though it doesn’t mean there isn’t admiration and respect and love in those interactions. That is the honest expression of his personality. Tobias: Yes, it is dark, but it is an expression of his truth, I guess, of his war experiences. Yes, he’s twisted, but it’s a sort of rugged, weird respect. So I think he finds Jamie to be a remarkable person. As someone who is interested in pain and people’s pain thresholds, he flogs Jamie and Jamie is able to withstand more punishment than he’s ever administered to anyone. I think in some way Jamie represents everything that Jack isn’t, and you both love and want to destroy the thing that you can’t be. I think he is stimulated by him, intrigued by him. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What’s with Black Jack’s obsession with Jamie?
