I know this is an unpopular opinion, but after Westcliff took Lillian to his bed while she was clearly intoxicated, I could no longer root for their romance. He took advantage of her, plain and simple. It would be different if he had been drinking also, but he was stone cold sober and she was sloshed. It brings to mind the movie The Cutting Edge and how Doug refused to sleep with Kate while she was drunk, even though she was furious with him for it. That was a turning point for his character. The moment he proved himself to be a good guy at heart. He did the right thing, and what Westcliff SHOULD have done. Westcliff is no hero in my eyes. I can't look at him in the same way now.
