ReplyDeleteIt's is when Jack was use other colors to defense his fear of show something that he actually can't do, as he not sure when he should kill the pig.. As when he hiding himself so he can enjoy do different things around without anyone know who himself in real. If that make him feel so weakness and lost power because everyone else think he's such as shame didn't show real of himself as in doing other stuff. Also he didn't want everyone know that he have some weakness area to defense against his social life with animals.
