How does Cory feel about returning home in the last scene? Does he have different emotions about his father? What is Troy's impact on the family after his death?

This question is about "Fences".

Answer and Explanation:

1. Cory is not happy to have to return home, he feels that by refusing to go to his father's funeral, in the last scene, he will be asserting his position of independence, maintaining a challenging behavior to his father.

2. He has different emotions towards his father and although he refuses to go to the funeral as an act of rebellion, we can see that this refusal is a way for Cory to avoid dealing with the loss of his father. With that we know that Cory shows a kind of emotion, but feels different emotions in relation to the father.

3. Troy was the provider of the family and fought to minimize all possible needs that the family presented. His death is, therefore, impactful, as it causes the family to lose the one it protected and promoted.

The Fowl in the Pot
by Stanley). Weyman (excerpt)
Arriving at a house, which, if we might judge in the darkness, seemed to be of rather greater pretensions than its fellows, our guide stopped, and
whispered to us to mount some steps to a raised wooden gallery, which intervened between the lane and the doorway. On this, besides the
door, a couple of unglazed windows looked out. The shutter of one was ajar, and showed us a large, bare room, lighted by a couple of rushlights.
Directing us to place ourselves close to this shutter, the innkeeper knocked at the door in a peculiar fashion, and almost immediately entered,
going at once into the lighted room. Peering cautiously through the window we were surprised to find that the only person within, save the
newcomer, was a young woman, who, crouching over a smoldering fire, was crooning a lullaby while she attended to a large black pot

Racing to Race
Carlo stopped to rest for a minute and tried to catch his breath. He’d been running for so long that he had pains in his side and his legs were beginning to hurt. He hunched over and tried to expand his lungs, but it was like trying to suck air out of a bicycle tire. His body was too exhausted to even allow him to take a deep breath, and he started to wheeze again. “Great,” he thought, “let me just add asthma to my expanding list of ailments. I can’t believe that I can’t even jog two miles without completely collapsing!” He finally gave in to his aching body and laid down on the grass to recuperate. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine himself running on the school track in the 1,600-meter race. He pictured himself running steadily toward the finish line, running effortlessly like a cheetah in the jungle. He was so lost in thought that he didn’t even hear Meiya approach. “Hey sleepyhead, what are you doing napping on Sean’s lawn in the middle of the day?” Meiya asked playfully. Carlo quickly sat up, breathing normally now and feeling a little embarrassed. “I am trying to get in shape to try out for track, but I can’t even run two miles,” he said dejectedly. “Wait, how many months are you out of surgery? Didn’t you just finish rehab last week?” Meiya asked. “You can’t expect to run two miles the first day.” It had been six months since Carlo’s surgery and he specifically remembered the doctor telling him he could start running after six months. But he thought about what Meiya had said and realized she had a good point. After his surgery, the doctor did say rehab would be crucial to his recovery but that it would take time for him to gain back full use of his leg. He thought about how a baby had to learn to walk before it could run. He remembered when his nephew was learning to crawl; within days it seemed like he was walking. Running didn’t come right away, Carlo remembered. He realized it was the same with his therapy. The maximum he had run in the past month was one mile on the treadmill, so he realized that Meiya was probably right. He would have to work at building up his endurance and set more realistic goals for himself. As he thought about what he had already accomplished, he started to smile and felt like a weight was being lifted off his shoulders. He realized that he had run almost a mile and a half before his body started to protest and if he kept working hard, he could get back to where he was before his accident. “Since when did you get so smart, Dr. Meiya?” he teased. “Do you want to race to the next mailbox?” “You’re on!” she challenged and took off running at full speed.
