“He’s liked, but not well liked”, a line was used by Biff to the Loman’s neighbour’s son Bernard, who, in Willy’s flashbacks, was a geek who tutored Biff in math. Biff, on the other hand, was very well liked and popular in high school, was a big football player and was seen as someone who would get a football scholarship and continue playing the sport professionally. After Biff failed math, which which didn't allow him to graduate, the opinions on Biff changed, which Willy couldn't stand to see. This event is what we describe as the chaos in the play. Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman follows a very specific plot line, starting with order. The beginning of the play starts with Willy Loman driving his car with music playing. You can notice happy vibes during his trip. In the plot line, following order comes hamartia. This is when all of his mistakes come back to haunt him and therefore putting him in a sense of confusion, anger and sadness. This demonstrates that he is losing his mind. Another event that would play a major part in Willy’s life that is displayed in one of his flashbacks is the affair he had with a woman, and his Biff found out. This would ultimately prove to be the downfall of Willy later
