Yeah…Marcus is just discovering how sad his life is….he wants to cling onto Fil thinking she is his light to a better life. You have to be better first Marcus, right now you got nothing to offer the girl.
That is true, he has to come harder for her, he offers nothing. What makes him differnt from Vincent is that he willing to scheme to deserve her. Vincent treated Fil like she should be happy that he lets her breath in his presence. He is now living his rude awakening.
