I have always understood the title as , because the conflict point of the story comes from the bedroom, and the story ends in the bedroom. But now I finally understand that the Bedroom here refers to the lobster catcher. This illustrates a metaphor for the title of the story ----- 3 lobsters are in the same cage, two males and one female, then one of the two males must die in the fight. This poor lobster is Frank. His unfaithful love He ruined his career, and even lost his life. Then the second time I mentioned the theme of the story is the ending, the battle between Matt and Richard. This time it was Richard who died. I think Matt said a lot. The voice of the audience-"I just can't wait".
