I thought mc was dummie for not connecting the dots but now that i see it, he just doesn't want to believe that ml is mido so he just don't seem him as a possibility. Anyway, care for an ml change? Lol. And mido seems to want to live in this forced reality where he get to lock up mc and abuse him as "revenge" The moment mc run away, that thinly veiled projections and traumas r gonna fall on him.
