Long Day's Journey into Night is often regarded to be one of the finest American plays of the 2. The play concerns the Tyrone family . Mary is addicted to drugs and Edmund is ill with tuberculosis. The play is semi- autobiographical. Summary. The setting is the seaside Connecticut home of the Tyrones' Monte Cristo Cottage. The four main characters are the semi- autobiographical representations of O'Neill himself, his older brother, and their parents. This play portrays a family in a ferociously negative light as the parents and two sons express accusations, blame, and resentments . The pain of this family is made worse by their depth of self- understanding and self- analysis, combined with a brutal honesty, as they see it, and an ability to boldly express themselves. The story deals with the mother. He is a wealthy though somewhat miserly man. His money is all tied up in property which he hangs on to in spite of impending financial hardship. His dress and appearance are showing signs of his strained financial circumstances, but he retains many of the mixed affectations of a classical actor in spite of his shabby attire. His wife Mary has recently returned from treatment for morphine addiction and has put on weight as a result. The history of hypnosis is full of contradictions. On the one hand, a history of hypnosis is a bit like a history of breathing. Like breathing, hypnosis is an. She is looking much healthier than the family has been accustomed to, and they remark frequently on her improved appearance. However, she still retains the haggard facial features of a long- time addict. As a recovering addict, she is restless and anxious. She also suffers from insomnia, which is not made any easier by her husband and children's loud snoring. When Edmund, her younger son, hears her moving around at night and entering the spare bedroom, he becomes alarmed, because this is the room where, in the past, she would satisfy her morphine addiction. He questions her about it indirectly. She reassures him that she just went there to get away from her husband's snoring. In addition to Mary's problems, the family is worried about Edmund's coughing; they fear that he might have tuberculosis, and are anxiously awaiting a doctor's diagnosis. Edmund is more concerned about the effect a positive diagnosis might have on his mother than on himself. The constant possibility that she might relapse worries him still further. Once again, he indirectly speaks to his mother about her addiction. They speak about Mary's conduct. Jamie berates Edmund for leaving their mother unsupervised. Edmund berates Jamie for being suspicious.

Jamie points out to Edmund that they had concealed their mother's addiction from him for ten years. Jamie explains to Edmund that his naivet. They discuss the upcoming results of Edmund's tests for tuberculosis, and Jamie tells Edmund to prepare for the worst. Their mother appears. She is distraught about Edmund's coughing, which he tries to suppress so as not to alarm her, fearing anything that might trigger her addiction again. When Edmund accepts his mother's excuse that she had been upstairs so long because she had been . Mary notices and starts becoming defensive and belligerent, berating Jamie for his cynicism and disrespect for his parents. Jamie is quick to point out that the only reason he has survived as an actor is through his father's influence in the business. Mary speaks of her frustration with their summer home, its impermanence and shabbiness, and her husband's indifference to his surroundings. With irony, she alludes to her belief that this air of detachment might be the very reason he has tolerated her addiction for so long. This frightens Edmund, who is trying desperately to hang on to his belief in normality while faced with two emotionally horrific problems at once. Finally, unable to tolerate the way Jamie is looking at her, she asks him angrily why he is doing it. Not wanting to be alone, Mary does not allow Cathleen to go to the kitchen to finish dinner and offers her a drink instead. Mary does most of the talking and discusses her love for fog but her hatred of the foghorn and her husband. It is obvious that Mary has already taken some of her . She also makes it clear that while she fell in love with her husband from the time she met him, she had never taken to the theatre crowd. She shows her arthritic hands to Cathleen and explains that the pain in her hands is why she needs her prescription . Mary awakes and begins to have bitter memories about how much she loved her life before she met her husband. She also decides that her prayers as a dope fiend are not being heard by the Virgin, but still decides to go upstairs to get more drugs, but before she can do so, her son, Edmund, and her husband, James, return home. Although both men are drunk, they both realize that she is back on morphine, although Mary attempts to act as if she is not. Jamie, the other son, has not returned home, but has elected instead to continue drinking and to visit the local whorehouse. After calling Jamie a . After seeing the condition that Mary is in, her husband expresses the regret that he bothered to come home, and he attempts to ignore her as she continues her remarks, which include blaming him for Jamie. Then, as often happens in the play, Mary and James try to get over their animosity and attempt to express their love for one another by remembering happier days. When James goes to the basement to get another bottle of whiskey, Mary continues to talk with her son, Edmund. When Edmund reveals that he has tuberculosis, Mary refuses to believe it, and attempts to discredit Dr. Hardy, due to her inability to face the reality and most importantly the severity of the situation. She accuses Edmund of attempting to get more attention by blowing everything out of proportion. In retaliation, Edmund reminds his mother that her own father died of tuberculosis, and then, before exiting, he adds how difficult it is to have a . When James comes back with more alcohol he notes that there was evidence that Jamie had attempted to pick the locks to the whiskey cabinet in the cellar, as he has done before. Mary ignores this and bursts out that she is afraid that Edmund is going to die. She also confides to James that Edmund does not love her because of her drug problem. When James attempts to console her, Mary again rues having given birth to Edmund, who appears to have been conceived to replace a baby Mary and James lost before Edmund. When Cathleen announces dinner, Mary indicates that she is not hungry and is going to bed. James goes in to dinner all alone, knowing that Mary is really going upstairs to get more drugs. At midnight, Edmund comes home to find his father playing solitaire. While the two argue and drink, they also have an intimate, tender conversation. James explains his stinginess, and also reveals that he ruined his career by staying in an acting job for money. After so many years playing the same part, he lost his talent for versatility. Edmund talks to his father about sailing and of his aspiration to become a great writer one day. They hear Jamie coming home drunk, and James leaves to avoid fighting. Jamie and Edmund converse, and Jamie confesses that although he loves Edmund more than anyone else, he again ambiguously lashes out at his father calling on him to fail. When James returns, Jamie wakes up, and they quarrel anew. Mary, lost in her morphine dreams of the past, comes downstairs. Holding her wedding gown, she babbles incoherently about her convent days and falling in love with James, while her husband and sons silently watch her. Characters.

The Toyota Tercel was originally named the Corolla Tercel, but as Toyota's first front wheel drive car, it had little relation to its more sophisticated, pricier, rear wheel drive relative. High in quality but affordable and comfortable, the Tercel was sold in the United States a mere two years after its 1. Japan, and remained in the US for over a decade as Toyota's base model. The Tercel was built on the same platform as the Starlet, and many have done engine swaps with sportier and heavier cars (like the MR2) to make the light Tercel a speed demon. Arriving in the United States in 1. Tercel was a latecomer to the front- drive scene, joining a bevy of boxy hatchbacks that followed a basic Hillman architecture - including the high- end Volkswagen Rabbit, the Ford Escort, GM J- cars, and Plymouth Horizon/Dodge Omni. The front wheel drive layout of all these cars increased the usable interior space, allowing a very small car to be liveable. The non- transverse mounting of the engine, then as now unusual in a front- driver four- cylinder, meant that the transmission had to be mounted underneath the floorboards and engine, with half- shafts going out to the front wheels. Rack and pinion steering was used, and both front and rear had independent suspensions (Mac. Pherson struts in front, coil springs in rear). Steel belted radials were standard, with optional aluminum alloy wheels on the SR5; black urethane bumpers were cheaper and lighter than chromed bumpers, and more scratch and ding resistant; wide mouldings on the side prevented door dings, and the rear windows opened. Originally there was a two and four door sedan, two and four door Deluxe sedan, and Deluxe and SR5 liftbacks; but 1. Deluxe models included standard tinted glass (starting in 1. Most models used 1. SR5 had chromed trim rings. The engine was a 1. Electronic ignition was used. The compression ratio was 9. The engine was small but had five main bearings for reliability and long duty. The cam was belt- driven. Cylinders were “siamesed,” sharing a solid cylinder wall with the next, to reduce space and weight. Three transmissions were fitted, a four- speed and five- speed manual (both synchronized, with self adjusting clutches and direct shift linkages), and a three- speed automatic optional in the four- door Deluxe Sedan and standard in the Deluxe Liftback. The four speed manual was only used in the base two- door sedan; the three speed was a modern, bandless design with carefully engineered valving and gear spacing to reduce gear change shock. Gas mileage was an impressive 3. The base two- door sedan had 6. The other models upped the figures a bit, to 6. With the five- speed manual, the Tercel was sprightly to 5. No surprise, then, that Road & Track rated the Tercel best new import of 1. Consumer Reports put it onto the list of preferred cars when it amassed their highest reliability rating. The first Tercels, like most front- drive competitors of the late 1. Sedans had a meager 9. The two- door Deluxe and liftbacks had flip- open rear quarter windows. The SR5 gained a “simulated leather” covered steering wheel and shifter knob in 1. Controls included an interior hood release and column- mounted headlight switch; the SR5 had a tachometer and trip odometer. Air conditioning was optional except in the base models. Side window demisters were standard, as were locking seat belt retractors (to hold car seats in); SR5s came with an FM stereo, optional in the others; a cassette player was also offered, along with a sunroof. Second generation: 1. Toyota Tercel cars The 1. Corolla was dropped, making the front- wheel- drive Toyota Tercel the company’s lowest- priced car. An optional four wheel drive system and two more doors were added, so that the Corolla could be a hatchback with two or four doors up front, or a station wagon with four doors. The four wheel drive system included an unusual six- speed manual transmission with an extra- low gear, and could be moved from front to four wheel drive without coming to a full stop; front drive cars got a five speed manual or three- speed automatic (a four- speed manual was reserved for the . Gear ratios were changed in 1. The wagon was taller than American designs, and had an almost minivan- like appearance. The 1. 98. 3 Tercel is unusual for redesigns because the wheelbase was actually shortened, not lengthened; yet, Toyota took advantage of a smaller rear suspension to actually increase interior space. The hatchback was short on elbow room, but still provided a fairly generous interior for the price and overall size. Even though Volkswagen had gone to multiple- port fuel injection in 1. Toyota stuck with a carbureted engine, with decent enough performance when ordered with a stick but rather sluggish movement with the automatic. The main point of failure in these years was the electronic ignition module; the technology was still moderately new (introduced by Chrysler in 1. GM or Ford until at least 1. Volkswagen’s 1. 97. Toyota boasted in 1. All models were powered by a 1. The Tercel had rack and pinion steering, four- wheel independent suspension, and power assisted brakes with front discs; the 1. Height: 5. 4. 5 inches (5. Weight: 1,9. 90 - 2,1. Horsepower: 6. 0- 6. Gas. tank: 1. 2 gallons hatchbacks, 1. Cargo volume: 2. 9 cubic feet (hatchbacks), 6. The engine was moved up to 7. Plymouth was up to 9. The wagon, with the older two- barrel carb and single- cam engine, had the same 6. Even with the horsepower boost, the automatic Tercel was fairly slow to accelerate, though the manual transmission was satisfactory; but cornering was fairly good for the class, thanks to a fully independent suspension, rack and pinion steering, and the transverse mounted engine. The interior space was not bad in the hatchbacks, though rear seat legroom was naturally short (very, very short in the coupe), and the sunroof cut into headroom. The storage space was quite good with fold- flat rear seats. Three and four speed automatics were also available. The Tercel 4. WD - a four wheel drive high wagon - featured a unique six speed manual overdrive transmission, the extra gear being an extra- low gear for getting out of tough spots. The wide range of vehicles included three and five door Deluxe liftbacks, three- door standard Liftback, two- door Deluxe and standard Coupes, EZ Liftback, and Wagon in two or four wheel drive. Perhaps responding to the success of the Omni America and Horizon America stripper packages, Toyota set up the Tercel EZ in mid- 1. In 1. 98. 9, the Tercel soldiered on without the wagons, which, due to their unique features, must have cost Toyota quite a bit to make in relatively small quantities. In 1. 98. 9, the four- door was dropped (it was made in 1. Length: 1. 57 inches (1. Height: 5. 2- 5. 3 inches (5. Weight: 1,9. 70 - 2,2. Horsepower: 7. 6- 7. Gas. tank: 1. 2 gallons hatchbacks, 1. Cargo volume: 3. 6 cubic feet (2- door hatch), 3. Fourth and fifth generations: 1. The fourth generation 1. Tercel had another makeover with a consistent (some would say overdone) oval/circle theme throughout the vehicle. The Tercel gained an unprecedented level of comfort, with a surprisingly smooth ride and well- finished interior; it was also larger and quieter than past models. The hatchback was dropped in favor of a four- door sedan, and the 1. Following Federal requirements, a driver's side airbag was added in 1. In 1. 99. 4, another Federal requirement moved the Tercel to have non- CFC air conditioning. Weight: 1,9. 50 - 2,0. Gas. tank: 1. 2 gallons. The 1. 99. 5 Tercels had standard dual airbags (in accordance with new laws), three point seatbelts for two rear passengers, and adjustable shoulder belts for front passengers in four- door sedans. Starting in 1. 99. Tercels met Federal 1. ABS was kept as an option. The interior was modified so the dash was further away; and the engine was greatly boosted, to 9. In 1. 99. 7, Toyota adopted a single- grade strategy on the Tercel, with a single CE trim level with many features from DX trim; wheels went up to 1. The dash panel was updated with rotary vents, and new seat fabrics and door panels were adopted. Only a year later, in 1. Tercel, as the Echo replaced it; but the Echo itself was to last a fairly short time before it, too, was succeeded by the Scion line. For specifications, scroll down past the Paseo. The engine was identical to that of the Tercel. No four- speed manual was available (by no means a bad thing), just the five speed and a four- speed automatic that was unusual in a small, inexpensive car at the time (it would not be until 2. Neon would get a four- speed). See www. toyotasera. Paseo was a conservative replacement that came off the Sera's Starlet- derived floorpan and power unit?” The Sera, according to Chris’ site, was launched in March 1. December 1. 99. 5. Most (9,0. 00) were made in the first year. The Sera had gull- wing doors; specifications (from Chris’ site) are in the specs chart. On the other hand, we do have to note that the Paseo had the same wheelbase as the Tercel — unlike the Sera.) The 1. Tercel had a large number of changes, including a redesigned interior and exterior with a 5. It also had dual airbags and side impact protection, both of which would be mandatory within the next year or two. The exterior increased aerodynamic efficiency and lowered wind noise; the little engine didn't need a grille for cooling, so air was taken from under the bumper instead, using an integrated- spoiler design. This lowered drag (as measured by Cd) from the already good . Meanwhile, the windows were enlarged all around and the pillars reduced in size for much better visibility, particularly in the rear three- quarters, which newer cars from other makers have closed off. The airy interior was made brighter by lowering the dashboard. Bumpers were covered with super- olefin, resulting in considerable weight loss and scratch resistance.
