Gerald thinks that nothing much has really changed in his relationship with Sheila. Yet he's deluding himself. He may not have changed, alright, but things between him and Sheila most certainly have. Although genuinely moved by the death of Alice Renton (a.k.a. Eva Smith), he cannot emerge beneath the shadow of his domineering father.
