every character is selfish, totally, and i don't blame derek for being so in some instances, but concerning his role this season, they are clearly trying to make him something he's not, which is laughable. as much as i loathe richard, since when does he have to explain his decisions to anyone, including derek? he doesn't. just because he goes around and hugs a couple of people, he's suddenly one for all and all for one? erm, no, idts.
