Yes. And we can't ignore Iris, the messenger of the gods, but Roy chose to ignore her (and her fat letter) until too late. I also have to assume that Iris's age, 33, is significant. But sometimes a cigar is just a smoke, and it's also possible that the window for being younger than Roy but old enough to be a grandmother was pretty small.
