I meant to convey the idea that the real Amelia for Edmund's Anhalt is Fanny, rather than Mary. Like Anhalt, Edmund has been a tutor for Fanny. Like Amelia, Fanny has also been very teachable. Amelia is at the point where she is ready to "teach" her tutor. Likewise, we have seen Edmund turning to Fanny for advice.

Although Mary is playing Amelia, there is little correspondence in the situations of the two. However, there have been several hints so far to indicate that neither Mary nor Edmund are ready to learn anything from each other.
