Thus it promotes lust for power. They're just sucking up to their own bosses, their own lusts. So it shows that Jake is human, that he has hope. He is a wonderful character. But I won't put up with their stupid trick of when they show someone who has hope they have to show 3 who are so powerful they are without hope.
Nobody is without hope.
The only evil they are really showing is that of their film-making. Manipulative formula wretches. Actually, it's not evil. It's just a lie. Greed is weak, power is a pawn, ugly is in the eye.
