Hey do you ever think about how the entirety of The Strange Case is told in the past tense. So when the books says “I let my brother go to the devil in his own way, he [Utterson] used to say quaintly” to us this is the beginning of the book, but to Gabe he has already been through everything. Do you ever think that he stopped saying this little phrase of his because of Jekyll. That he USED to be kind and trusting of everyone, and non judgmental of peoples faults, but Jekylls crimes and betrayal changed him somehow? That’s after the events of the book the greif and trauma changed him and he actually is no longer the lovely perfect comfort man we know and love but someone much colder, jaded, and isolated??? Anyway I’m doing great thanks for asking

Jekyll rocks ochre colours and enjoys dressing up for the occasion, meanwhile Utterson has like three coats that all look the same.

I love (hate) how from the first scene where we actually get to see Jekyll, we see just how manipulative he is.
Utterson brings up the will. Jekyll immediately tries to change the topic to 'Bitching About Lanyon.'
Utterson persists. Jekyll tries to play dumb about the reason Utterson brings it up.
Utterson name drops Hyde. Jekyll looks uncomfortable and asks to drop the subject.
Utterson pushes forward. Jekyll tries to win Utterson's pity without telling him anything.
Jekyll even butters Utterson up, saying that the concern is "downright good of you" and that he'd trust Utterson over anyone else, and it works! Utterson begins to let it drop.
But now JEKYLL starts pushing Utterson, insisting that he promise as his friend to take care of Hyde should it be necessary, and effectively getting what he wants out of the will situation in the first place. And Utterson agrees!
Jekyll took what was initially an uncomfortable interrogation and turns it around so that he finally gets Utterson on his side without revealing a damn thing.
And that's where some of that horror element is supposed to come in - if he was an upstanding guy like Utterson thinks, none of this would feel calculated. It's all a perfectly natural way to behave when pressed on a sore subject. It's why Utterson gives in at all!
But we know Jekyll's selfish as hell. Of course he knew exactly what he was doing.
And if anything, it proves Utterson's main weakness is the blind spot he has when it comes to Jekyll.

JEKYLL: “I want to change my will.”
UTTERSON: “Not a problem, what’s the change?”
JEKYLL: “In the case of my death or disappearance, I’d like to leave everything I own to a Mr. Edward Hyde.”
UTTERSON: “Everything?”
JEKYLL: “Yes. Money, house, assets, the lot.”
UTTERSON: “Alright, then. Who’s Edward Hyde?”
JEKYLL: “Don’t worry about it.”
UTTERSON: “………..?”
JEKYLL: “… Don’t worry about it.”
UTTERSON: “…. Riiiight. (I wasn’t, but I am now…. Never mind, maybe he’ll tell me later.)”

Utterson: I incline to Cain’s heresy; I let my brother go to the devil in his own way.
Jekyll: *leaves all his earthly goods to Hyde in the case of his disappearance*
Utterson: ...Nevermind I'm gonna hunt down this devil and tear Henry Jekyll out of its grasp with my own bare hands
