First of all, Frank behaved too cold-blooded, even at the very least, he was reluctant to pretend to care about other people’s thoughts. If it weren’t for Claire to really love him, he would have betrayed him long ago. Of course, it is still unclear whether this incident was manipulated by Frank or was unexpected. It is also possible that Frank deliberately failed the bill to vote, thus allowing Peter to give up his seat.). Of course, on the other hand, if he pretended to Claire, maybe she wouldn't love him anymore. So Claire is a dilemma for Frank.
In addition, a relationship like Zoe that could have been exploited was ruined by him. At first I saw that he went to Zoe without hesitation, and it felt like something bad. Because they didn't even count on her, they had already begun to cooperate. Besides satisfying the desires of both parties, their sexual relationship is of no use to controlling Zoe. Because, if Zoe is really a naive person, he will be easily hit very badly after being abandoned, just like Peter's reaction, such a person is like a lamb into a wolf pack, and the end of the tragedy is inevitable. , So it is inevitable that Peter will be sacrificed in the end. And if Zoe is really a very insidious person, he will not care at all, just like Claire. Such a person understands the rules of the game, so he won't let emotions affect his judgment. But in fact, it is precisely that Zoe is neither completely naive nor completely ruthless (Zoe said in the play that she once looked up to Frank, so she did not realize Frank's insidiousness at the beginning.) Therefore Frank treats Zoe. What he did would only provoke her ruthless revenge (Zoe's revenge can be seen from her reaction to Claire's visit to her shabby room), because Frank tore his face first. Of course she would definitely not retaliate when the time was not ripe, but she would find ways to master Frank's handle. And the most important thing in the end is that Zoe is not a smart enough person. She can hardly hide secrets from anyone. Even ordinary people like Janine and Lucas can guess that the big man behind her is Frank. Danger? Such a person is completely a time bomb and will make Frank backfire at any time.
Again, Frank’s character is absolutely unwilling to bow his head to anyone. The president is actually considering making him a vice president, but just because he is unwilling to condescend to let others play him and keep him in the dark, he is nothing. We must fight back against the president to find a place and humiliate others. (The most typical example is the struggle between him and the teachers in the teacher union at the beginning. In fact, it also shows that Frank never gives people a step, he has to step on people thoroughly to be satisfied.) The consequence of such a character is to go around. Set up enemies. When he is still useful, although others will hate him, they are still willing to cooperate with him, because after all he is capable, but in fact he does not have any friends (what he said to Peter without friends can be given to him as it is), His only firm comrade in arms is his wife Claire (Although Douglas and Meechum are loyal enough, they can only be used to do things, not to work together), and even so, as I said in the first paragraph, he doesn’t want to be equal. Treat her. Simply put, Frank is a real villain, not a hypocrite. The real villain will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, but the real villain only wears a mask, and when his opponent confronts him with an open card, he will also show his card. But hypocrites will have multiple masks, even if one is taken off, there will be another. It is always unpredictable.
The only opponent in the show Frank who has sufficient combat effectiveness so far is Raymond Tusk, followed by a three-person team of Zoe, Lucas and Janine. Remy showed some combat power, but there was no head-on confrontation to let him play, so I can't see how it is for the time being. As for the others, they are all scum.
The most idealistic character in this play is Gillian. She is a bit like Hai Rui in our history. She is too extreme. She is smart enough to understand the rules of the game, but her sense of justice is so strong that she will never adapt to the rules like Claire. To achieve the goal. Such people are much more miserable in reality than in TV dramas. But a society where such a soul can be born is a healthy society and a society with hope.
The most tragic person in this drama is not Peter, but Rachel. In the end, her fate is likely to be the same as Peter, who will be dealt with after the use, but unlike Peter, Peter has at least dreamed and lived a decent life. , And Rachel has nothing.
My favorite character in this play is Christina. She is honest enough, but not right to the extreme. Like Gillian, smart enough, but not smart enough to be cruel and ruthless like almost everyone in this play, and finally beautiful enough (><). I hope the following plot can develop.
Finally, there is a guess about the future plot, because Claire is very likely to be pregnant, and Frank hates the child, so this must be a latent contradiction, their husband and wife may even turn against each other, but this is probably the last thing that will happen. After everyone betrayed Frank.
