Agree esp. about Haniya at the end. I think she came to recognize how much she wanted acceptance from others. And so does Vincent; Armand speculates at one point that he left the midnight countdown to avoid potentially being ignored. I also think the folks in Three Pines used this term with a measure of affection. It would have been deeply painful to both Haniya and Vincent to be ignored.
