A Terrifying Enemy Hernando Tellez’s short story “Just Lather, That’s All” is memorable for its truly horrifying military leader. Set during some sort of rebellion, Captain Torres visits a barber shop for a shave, fully aware that the barber himself is a member of the rebellion. As the story unfolds, the tension builds as the Captain chats with the barber,whose sharp blade rests on his exposed neck. At any time , the barber could take the life of his enemy. Yet, somehow, the Captain knows that he will not. By then end of the story, a character has been developed that is truly horrifying. The Captain is completely without fear, completely without compassion, and is coldly and terrifyingly intelligent. Tellez creates a character that absolutely no one would want as an enemy One aspect of the horror of the Torres’ character is his complete absence of fear. He knows this is an extremely tense time in the town with the rebellion going on and the violent punishments handed out. He is aware there are many people in the town who would wish him dead because of what he represents and what he has done. Yet, he still goes into the “home” of his enemy and even hands him a golden opportunity to kill him. At the end of the story , he shows he is aware of this when he turn to the barber and says, “They told me that you’d kill me. I came to find out” (106). When he walks out alive, he walks out a winner in the psychological battle. Someone who has no fear of losing his own life is a very dangerous opponent, and he is clearly a dangerous enemy and horrible character. Another element that adds to the horror this character is his complete lack of compassion for his enemies. He hunts them down and devises all sorts of torture for them. After previously ordering target practice on the naked corpses of captured rebels, he has new plans for those he has recently captured. When asked what he has in store for them, he answers: “I don’t know yet. But we’ll amuse ourselves “(105) . The fact that he has no difficulty in abusing human bodies is shocking. He also has no mercy for those who oppose him. All must die. This lack of any human compassion makes him a fearsome opponent and a really horrible and memorable character. The final aspect of his personality which makes him so terrifying is his intelligence. He is not just a blood-thirsty killing machine, wiping out all in his path. He is a calm, thoughtful military man who carefully weights all of his options before proceeding on his bloody way. The way he skilfully manipulates the barber is impressive , He talks as though the barber is sympathetic to his side. He even invites him to witness his cruelty first-hand when he tells him, “Come to the school today at six o’clock” (105). He does all this while knowing the barber is ,in fact, a rebel. The way he coldly and patiently manipulates the barber frightening. This intelligence only adds to his formidable , fearsome personality and helps create this definitely memorable character who is a match for anyone. "Just lather, That's All" is a tense, disturbing story that places the reader in the middle of a rebellion. The story is memorable for its building drama and the fact that so much of the story is described from the point of view of a rebel with a very, very sharp blade place on the neck of his greatest enemy. The fact that he does not use this weapon does not take away from the story. In fact, it only adds to the horror of the main character. Captain Torres is a memorable character who would strike fear into anyone's heart. He is fearless, intelligent and without pity. He is man no one would want as an enemy , and he is the most memorable part of "Just Lather, That's All".
