I think that ...


Ethan was married to the pregnant woman that Jack's father killed in surgery.
And that ...


** Ethan wanted Claire's baby as a replacement for the one that died with his wife. **

Don't we see Jack's dad talking to the husband/father in ATBCHDI?

I don't remember thinking that he looked like Ethan, although I wasn't
really looking for it.

They are not the same. It's a different actor that plays the husband.

It's a different actor that plays the husband.

I know it is.* But they shot the scene so that you can't get a really good look at his face.

When Wes Craven made Scream, he usually used different people to play the Ghostface killers in place of the actors who played them without the disguise.* Sometimes he did that because of the stunts, but he did it the rest of the time so the audience wouldn't guess who the killer was based on the actors' movements.

The actor credited in the episode ATBCHDI might be a sort of stand-in.

Kind of like the Scott -- Steve thing --
