If Roy knew that Angela and Frank were lying to him, but was willing to be deceived, just to get an opening statement to talk to his ex-wife - I met a child who claimed to be our daughter, and I gave her all my savings. The ex-wife told Roy that she had a miscarriage that year. It was a scam, but would the ex-wife be touched when she saw the crystallization of love that did not exist between the two and would overthrow all Roy?
If so, when Roy took Angela for the first lottery scam in the middle of the film, the precautions Roy said to Angela in the car would also have a deeper meaning: "You may think, what the hell are we selling, Dad, Dad? The answer is yourself." "The most important thing is to make sure that the person you deceive is not deceiving you in turn." These two points of attention that have nothing to do with the plot trend appeared out of thin air, which was a bit abrupt. If it was regarded as a kind of Roy's mastery of Angela, the warning to the younger generation should be more reasonable.
Just guessing by myself, if there is such a layer, it is more in line with the idea of stickman, and the movie will have more depth.
