The old man lying in the hospital bed barely moved, but his presence loomed over everything in My Only Daughter. Hayes' mom mentioned him having power over her son's future. There's clearly more to this family hierarchy than we've seen so far.
My Only Daughter brilliantly uses the hospital setting to show class tensions. Hayes talking about living above everyone else while his mom threatens to ruin Emily's father felt like watching a villain origin story. The ambition is admirable but the methods are terrifying.
