Act II Analysis

Act II of Fences begins to show how Troy's personal relationships are beginning to fail. Alberta had the baby but died leaving the child with Troy. Nonetheless he is still married to Rose even though they are not speaking. Cory has no respect for his father and begins to point out how he has failed basically as a father. Troy signs away Gabriel life to a mental asylum. Lastly Troy and Bono aren't as close as they used to be because of Troy's promotion. Throughout this story Troy have found every way to sabotage his life by making decisions. People say "you don't know what you have until its gone". This is a perfect quote representing Troy. He's been calling death out, wondering why not him. Basically getting what he asks for by dying from a heart attack doing something he truly loved which was swinging a bat. Troy had problems with being loyal to the ones who really matter. This caused an unhappy environment. My analysis is Troy didn't know that he was a stranger in his own home. He made his bed and now he has to lie in it. 

In this scene you can see how Rose good by Troy even though she knew he was no good. She spent her life being loyal to him even though hens necessary there for her. This is a great example of how Troy treated people who loved him and would do anything for him.
