Helly/Helena and Jame Eagan

Imagine doing everything you can to earn the love and respect of your evil father, following the rules, living the way he wants you to live. Just for him to end up actually liking and respecting your innie more than you. The same innie you don’t even view as a whole person. Oh, the irony.

Also, Helly is Helena but without memories and trauma caused by Jame. Old man, YOU’RE the problem (nothing new here). He literally would have the daughter he wanted if he didn’t treat her the way he did.

Helena took a lot from Helly - her ability to make decisions, her time with Mark etc. But Helly unintentional took something from Helena too. Her dream to earn the father’s respect
