The dialogue between the TIMES female reporter and Stephen's two "Aren't we friends" is too white, too blunt, and the theme is the theme. How could two political animals say such naive words.
This play typically depicts how intriguing politics is, how the sanctimonious Governor turned out to be a hypocrite, and how the male protagonist turned from an ideal young man to indifference and complicity with others. In a word, no surprises, borng...
I believe that some of the people who devote themselves to politics want to do something for the society, want to promote something, and want to leave their legacy in history. It's their heroic plot that makes them feel good. And Governor and Stephen actually have this kind of arrogance.

In fact, isn't the Governor pushed by Stephen to the road of depravity?

The sadness of a good man" would be more shocking than describing Governor as a hypocrite.
