While she wants to hide her feelings for Tristan, she cannot help but comfort him, even if it means taking her own life.
Tristan’s relationship with Susannah
Susannah’s role in Tristan’s life was complex. As his Child with Samuel, her role as Wife with Alfred, and Seductress with Tristan, she was often a source of fascination for him. While his life was troubled by the death of Samuel, Tristan used his relationship with Susannah as an escape from his guilt. He later decided to let her go once he had healed from his guilt and felt confident that his relationship with Susannah was strong enough to last.
In The Last Stand, Susannah’s relationship with Alfred continues to be strained. Although she and Alfred love each other, Susannah wants to marry someone else. When she refuses to marry Tristan, she marries Alfred, who is in love with her. However, the marriage subverts Alfred’s motives and alienates his father. But the Colonel and Alfred reconcile their relationship after Alfred compromises his ethics.
In the final scene of the play, Alfred sees Susannah crying and he tells her that Tristan was always wild. Susannah agrees, though reluctantly. Alfred wipes Susannah’s face, but the Colonel yells at him and accuses him of making a blunder.
