Even in the things that look most frivolous there has to be the threat of something quite painful to make the comedy work.

When people laugh at that play, they're laughing at a surrogate version of the disaster which might occur to them.

Heathcliff. The "hero" of Wuthering Heights. Although no one knows why. He's mean, moody, and possibly a bit on the pongy side. Cathy loves him, though. She shows this by viciously rejecting him and marrying someone else for a laugh. Still, that is true love on the moors for you.
