The story doesn't fit. Why would the policeman be at their home?! Did he have dinner with them and thus was available to 'rescue' them from the bench as we were led to believe - though affected himself. We have entered Alice in Wonderland territory with the latest explanations..... And how does one square all the different versions - poison at the restaurant - poison a power in the car ventilation - poison on the door knob or in the home; not to mention the shifting position and 'role' of the policeman.
My precise thoughts too Pete, re contact with the door handle. It doesn't make sense. Ditto the length of time. My best guess is that it happened elsewhere.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
