Although we have the feeling that a long time has passed, the action of the play covers only “a revolution of the sun “, just twenty- four hours. As far as the unity of action is concerned, the entire action takes place in a shebeen located near the seashore of Mayo.

The main love-scene between them is one of the most poetic scenes in the play. However, this love-scene does not disrupt the unity of action and does not interfere with the development of the main plot, which is the development of Christy’s character. In fact, the idea of love and marriage is put to support the main action. The love-scenes contribute considerably to Christy’s change of character.

Isn't it plotlines that contribute to plot? Shouldn't it be his relationship with his lover that changes his character?
