As previously stated, Creon tried to remain calm and willing to listen to Antigone's side. However, because Antigone defied his rules, Creon's roles have come to a total 180. These 180s change the dynamic of the entire scene because now we see Antigone's angry side. In particular, in the text we see that Creon is shocked by the fact that he not only committed the crime, but that he also took pleasure in having done it. Creon also starts using gender-specific words like “girl” and “she,” which shows that he was probably offended that a woman insulted his authority. Furthermore, Creon's ego probably came into play as he does not want to be humiliated. Therefore, he now begins to respond with his monologue belittling both Antigone and her sister and showing no sympathy for the fact that both are his.
