You are obviously smarter than me (the "genre theory" tag was the icing on the cake!), but I found myself nodding a lot as I read your analysis.
I think Fraser is one of the most complex characters I've seen on TV; the man's got layers on layers on layers, and different people bring out different layers as they interact.
That's part of what I loved about "The Thin Blue Line." Well, that and *rowr*MarkSmithbauer*rowr*. Fraser shows us soooo much in that episode that we hadn't seen from him before, including letting his guard down enough to show genuine anger.
I look forward to hearing more as you sift through things!
