Wild Duck #1

Greggers has false conceptions about himself. He thinks he is a righteous guy who is on a life mission and will do anything to accomplish it even if it means hurting people. Greggers views himself as a high and mighty person for being on his life mission. He also believes in some religion about the "summons of the ideals". From what other characters said about it it seems bad but he thinks he's good for worshiping it. Hjalmar seems to have misconceptions about everybody. He doesn't really know the truth about anyone and blindly accepts what he is told. He views Old Werle as a good man who helped him out, and Greggers is his good old friend who only has his best interests at heart. When in reality Greggers is trying to be helpful but all he ends up doing is hurting him in the end. Hjalmar embraces the facades of the other characters because he is unaware that the other characters have facades. Relling clearly sees Greggers' facade and will constantly confront it. He will call Greggers out on the things he says and does to Hjalmar and his family.
