Ajax, part 4, in response to Riess part 4

Is Tecmessa breaking the fourth wall here?

TECMESSA

'Tis thine to surmise, mine to feel, too surely.

I think that Odysseus is trying to break out of the stigma here, everyone thinks he is going to be a jerk to the dead.  I think that Odysseus has seen enough gods/goddesses that he’s super superstitious about these kinds of things.  Odysseus seems to like to play it safe, and I really don’t blame him.  

So why was Ajax’s plan for his son to go to his parents’ house?  Teucer seems convinced that they will reject him.  Or is he talking about himself here?  It’s hard to tell.

What will he keep back? What taunt not hurl forth 

Against the bastard of a spear-won slave, 

Him who through craven cowardice betrayed 

Thee, beloved Ajax-or by guile, that so 

I might inherit thy kingdom and thy house. 

So will he speak, a passionate man, grown peevish 

In old age, quick to wrath without a cause. 

This is very reminiscent of Antigone.  Good thing there was someone with common sense in this one.

MENELAUS

What, I rebel against the laws of heaven? 
TEUCER, 
Yes, if you come to rob the dead of burial. 

MENELAUS

My own foes! How could I endure such wrong? 

TEUCER

Did Ajax ever confront you as your foe? 

MENELAUS

He loathed me, and I him, as well you know.

This reminds me of Romeo and Juliet when Romeo says he dreamed a dream and Benvolio interjects that he did too, and it was that dreamers often lie.  I like Teucer.  

TEUCER

And I once saw a fellow filled with folly, 
Who gloried scornfully in his neighbour's woes. 
So it came to pass that someone like myself, 
And of like mood, beholding him spoke thus. 
"Man, act not wickedly towards the dead; 
Or, if thou dost, be sure that thou wilt rue it." 
Thus did he monish that infatuate man. 
And lo! yonder I see him; and as I think, 
He is none else but thou. Do I speak riddles?

Why did Agamemnon treat Ajax so terribly?  He owes this dude his life.
