Eliot called them, for "objectifying" inner states of fictional characters. Joyce, of course, did not need Homer's epic to supply the hallucinogenic character of the events in "Circe." There are ample precedents in literature - "objective correlatives," as T. Bloom is debased, and, significantly, this chapter initiates the subsequent cathartic effect of that debasement. Unlike Homer's hero, Bloom is not spared the debasement of Odysseus's men (and, of course, in the original, Odysseus did not undergo a transformation). In Joyce's Ulysses, Circe (the symbolic female of this chapter) is Bella Cohen, and she keeps a brothel at 82 Tyrone Street Lower, in the midst of the Dublin redlight district, the district that Joyce (but not the Dubliners of 1904) calls Nighttown in Ulysses. In Homer's Odyssey, Circe turned Odysseus's men into swine Odysseus, however, never succumbed to Circe's spells.

She retorts that it’s not weakness, it’s his vulnerability and passion that gets her going – and she hasn’t seen him like that since he left football. He’s offended that she finds him being weak sexy. Meanwhile, Roy and Keeley have a tiff when he finds her “having a wank” to footage of his weepy retirement press conference. The ‘SNL’ alum previews the Apple TV+ comedy’s second heartwarming round.
