The Colonel is a fictional character who could easily do anything feeling rejected, or not. Don't underestimate the humiliation of being rejected, especially about something that is identified with being oneself.I've said all I want to say in my other posts, namely it doesn't make sense the Colonel 'was testing', nor did he give any evidence or clue to support your interpretation. It's a probable explanation, but it just isn't convincing to stray away from the simplest and obvious explanation: he's gay. What's so difficult about that? Besides, i can't imagine anyone who's so disgusted with homosexuality could test someone by holding him tightly, wet and kissing him. Yucky!
But this is all beside the point; the Colonel is just a small piece of the whole picture which portrays the tumours that impose upon everyone, Lester, in particular, who thought that he freed from them only to have them come back eventually in other shapes and forms to bite him in the neck. And it puts things into perspective.
I don't understand why you have to take this less probable interpretation to the obvious, and then ask yourself (in your first post) why? To which your only answer is 'a cheapshot at surprise ending'.
