I think way too much about the fact that the check to find out about René being in love with Gaston is only possible for one day. The quest doesn't start until day four, and René is dead by day five. There's nothing to be done about it, not nearly enough time to even start unpacking it. His last words to Gaston are so harsh. They never stood a chance.
True love is possible only in the next world - for new people. It is too late for us.

Niki: Welcome back to 'reasons the kids have been angry recently'.
Niki: *clears throat *
Niki: I told Nigel the plate was hot, he touched it and then got angry at me because the plate was really hot.
Niki: Rene ate the last piece of bread and then got angry at me for not telling him it was the last piece of bread. Because apparently if he had known it was the last piece of bread he would have savored it more.
Niki: *glares into the camera as if he's on the office *
Niki: Nelson got angry because I wouldn't allow him to play 'race simulator' 24/7. His argument, 'That's what summer break is for!'
James, butting in: He's not wrong though.
Niki: *glares *
Niki: Ayrton was angry because we are his parents and aren't allowed to get mad at him. And everything he does wrong, is only wrong because we taught him wrong.
James: *long suffering sigh * I forgot that one.

Captain Renè Arnoux is the king of deadpan humour
He's not the most memeable character, but that scene in which he describes how he carried his prince to safety under fire, and then HDB can counter with an over-the-top description of his amnesiac hangover.
The fact that he sarcastically says you deserve his Cross of Bravery more than him, and then actually lets you take it.
Imagine giving some drunk asshole your most prized, most significant possession, just to be passive aggressive about how much of an asshole he is.
That is a level of commitment to the bit I didn't even think was possible.
