And let's be real - sure, it was the 70s when some (definitely not all) people were more open minded about things like interracial marriage, transracial adoption, etc. but realistically Ellen and Chris didn't want the embarrassment of having a kid who looked like neither of them and having to explain that Chris knocked up a prostitute while he was in Vietnam to their friends, family, Tam's teachers, etc. every time someone asked if he was adopted or asked why Tam didn't look like his dad. It was easier in every way to tell themselves that Tam belonged with his mother far far away in another country where no one that Ellen or Chris knew would ask questions and that sending some money every month would make everything okay. That way they got to tell themselves that they were doing the right thing without having to inconvenience themselves or feel awkward when people inevitably asked questions. They saw Kim and Tam as part of the past and they wanted to leave them there, as in out of sight, out of mind, so that they could have their own little white picket fence life. Ellen initially refused Kim's request to take Tam back with them by saying that she and Chris wanted kids of their own, which seemed especially shitty to me, as if taking Tam to the United States to live with them would automatically ruin the idea of having kids that were biologically both of theirs.

I think the bigger takeaway that the water guy was getting from the situation is that (1) Marcus will always prioritize Deborah above everything else, including Marcus' own happiness and (2) the water guy doesn't want to compete with that. He wasn't even asking Marcus to make him his #1 priority 24/7. He just wanted Marcus to loosen Deborah's grip on his life ever so slightly and he finally saw that Marcus has his identity and career too wrapped up in Deborah's to ever break free. The sad thing is that as demanding as Deborah can be, if Marcus had told her he had a trip planned, she probably would have been willing to sit down, look at her calendar, and find a way to make it work (or at least find a different date that it could work) but Marcus is too afraid to even bring it up. There's loyal and devoted and then there's Marcus. I think the water guy saw that if Marcus can't even muster up the courage to tell Deborah he had a vacation planned, then he's never going to stand up for himself and that means if they stayed together, his future would be filled with all kind of last minute cancellations and interruptions caused by Marcus not being able to set some boundaries. I get that Marcus has a lot of responsibilities and that Deborah depends on him a lot, but the water guy is seeing a lot of dinners in his future where Marcus gets up and leaves because Deborah calls and Marcus won't even consider saying, "I'm in the middle of dinner but I'll take care of it in an hour." Marcus is so grateful to Deborah for giving him this career that he doesn't want to rock the boat at all. I can understand why the water guy doesn't want to stick around knowing that the only time they can spend together is on the periphery of Deborah's schedule and that even that can change at a moment's notice if she calls needing something.
