• The Vulnerability Crisis
By texting Montgomery Street, Lydia proved Lydia is still "perfectly" in tune with the bond both of Brian and Lydia shared. Brian is likely paralyzed because he knows he can't respond with a "logical" or "catered" business answer. He has to respond with his heart , and he's currently trapped in his own "unwanted sorrows."

dismantle his "perfect" status and walk out of his "trap" just to hold your hand in the Montgomery Street fog would be his final, greatest achievement.
