I think Pete gave Louie the push to be a bit of a better person and showed him where to focus his energy. Pete had a big role in reaching the olympics and even getting through some of the treacherous ordeals that Louie has been through. However, I do think it is interesting how much Phil helped Louie as well. It seems their prior bonding really played a key roll in their teamwork.

Its a good point in that last sentence. I think Pete had a larger influence on the start of who Louie became but really was only a supporting role in his life. Louie, just like many of us, has to make the choice to become the person he wants and also to even keep on living. He really had a strong will to live and you can tell how much the fame and desire to be in the spot light gave him the push to keep moving forward. I do wonder, while he did go through extremes and a journey I don't think I could have survived, whether or not he is a bit self centered and vain? Did any of you get this prospective?
