Character Analysis of Kip in

Scene 13 of Life Under Water

OBJECTIVES

Kip’s objective at first seems to be to sort out how he will become a responsible person which requires money to validate his existence. He then makes a statement about going back to school and then finally, declaring that he will take care of Amy-Beth. He isn’t doing this for love but rather to make himself feel better. The moment he realizes that she thinks all this is for her and that she will become dependent on him, his new objective is get out of that situation as fast he can (“Is there stuff to drink? A lot?”).

WHO AM I?

I’m Kip. I’m twenty-one or twenty-two. I live with my mother in a wealthy area of Long Island’s Southern Fork. I’m bitter towards my father for leaving us and my mother for the choices she is making in her life concerning Hank. I’ve also been spoiled my whole life so asking for $50 for a night is nothing. I have no real concept of work and reality seeing as I think I’ll be able to mow a lawn to get by in life and that I’m 21 and still not sure if I’ve even finished high school. I want to be a responsible person but as soon as I’m presented with a commitment, I will run away. I lie about my living situations to be more “real” so people won’t judge me as a rich boy. I’m read a lot and I think that’s made me a bit of a romantic when I try to use the quotes to woo Amy-Beth. I like to thinks things through and beat around the bush as long as possible but eventually, I will be very direct with my goals.

WHAT TIME IS IT?

Its 3 o’clock in the afternoon in present day during summer.

WHERE AM I?

I am sitting outside on a beautiful beach near the house.

WHAT SURROUNDS ME?

I’m surrounded by sand with the ocean stretching in front of me and the house where I’m staying not too far behind me. The only thing in the immediate area is sand and the beach towel we are sitting on. The ocean is a deep blue and is reflecting the bright afternoon sun and the sand is pale white.
