And to think further, I think it was exactly this that likely tore them apart: Jim and Carla did have their own spiritual rituals together, they made green-ray love often. Don was excluded from this. I think Carla even eventually recognized that she needed to have worked harder to make Don feel less excluded before the end, but he was too tough/proud to ever show that anything like that was bothering him. In retrospect, it seems like the magical qualities of group work were so important, but I think the group's main priority was taking care of and protecting weak little Carla and not the group as a whole.
