destroy Jekyll. Hyde’s takeover of Jekyll seems to suggest a less clear – cut explanation, in which the human condition isn’t in a fact double but rather one of repression and dark urges, and that once the repression of those dark urges eases or breaks it becomes more impossible to put back into place, allowing the “true”, dark nature of a man to emerge. Jekyll’s disorder also reflects on the other characters and raises the question of just how upright, moral, and governed by reason they truly are. Utterson for example is introduced as a lawyerly, kind man, and seldom seems to stray from that description. But his character is so rigid and unmoving, and even impersonal, that one could imagine he too is strenuously repressing a world of darker urges. “But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove. “I incline to Cain’s heresy,” he used to say quaintly: “I let my brother go to the devil in his own way.” In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down going men.” Mr. Utterson is less judgmental of bad behavior than most of his contemporaries.

In book and movie Thirteen Reasons Why, Jay Asher showed dualism through one of the character named Bryce Walker because he is the best representation of dualism in the book as well as the movie.
Bryce is represented as the good guy, athlete of the year and he has a lot friend who thinks that he has good personalities. On the other hand people who know and don’t know him think that he is a good, loving, and caring guy, but the truth is that he isn’t because if he’s not in the school, he is the opposite. For example in the movie he throws a party in his house and they done a lot of bad things that people don’t know like when he raped Jessica Davis and Hannah Baker people doesn’t know that he did this to them. And when Clay Jenson stopped over to his house to pretend to buy some drugs and when Clay confronted him, he became heated and beat Clay up until he’s bleeding. No one knows anything about what he is really capable off, but Hannah knows what had happened to Jessica the night during the
party.
