===Root of all Evil===
﻿Mark Hoffman's devised game for the lying, money-grabbing guru is represented by "money is the root of all evil" and the following deflects of evil: Speak No Evil, See No Evil and Hear No Evil. Three of his associates are selected for his tests. The first is his publicist Nina, who kept his secret while editing his book and is the Speak No Evil Test. The second is his lawyer, Suzanne, who defended him although she knew he was a fraud, which caused her to be part of the See No Evil Test. Finally, Bobby's best friend Cale who knows of his lie to gain sensation. Cale has heard the truth from Bobby but acts as if he doesn't know. 
====The Silence Circle====
Bobby enters the second test room of the mental asylum of his entrapment to find his book publicist, Nina, in a straight jacket in a chair with protruding spikes pointed at her throat. The rules read that the more Nina screams, the more closer the spikes get to her throat. The key to her release is on her stomach and Bobby has to pull it out with a fishing line. While Bobby does grab the key to free her, he fails to unlock the trap in time, as Nina screams too much and the timer runs out, leading to her death. The writing on the room's door read: Redefine your priorities
====The Impalement Wheel====
Bobby enters his third test and room to find lawyer Suzanne encased in a bed which lifts up following a caged appearence from Billy the Puppet. Bobby was tasked with supporting two metal spikes on his shoulders causing two others to stab his chest until the timer went off, but he eventually drops them and Suzanne's eyes and mouth are penetrated by three metal spikes. The door of the third test See No Evil reads, "Verify Your Self Worth through commitment", part of his S.U.R.V.I.V.E. morals.
====The Deafening Mask====
Bobby enters his fourth test room which contains his blindfolded friend Cale with a noose around his neck. Bobby must get him to listen to him, and help him to get across the planks before him. They are performing rather well, and Bobby reaches the key to save him. He throws the key to Cale, who just misses the catch. The timer runs out, and Cale's device lifts him in to air, hanging him.
===The Hooks and The Brazen Bull Oven===
Bobby's fifth and final test involves him finally reaching his wife Joyce Dagen in the boiler room, where she is attached by chain on a Brazen Bull Oven.
In order to rescue her, Bobby had to attach hooks to his pectorial muscles and hoist himself up onto a platform (as he claimed he had to in his book) to reach and connect extension cords. Bobby fails, when his pectoral muscles rip and he falls, which causes the oven to ignite incinerating Joyce in the final test.
Bobby is forced to watch in horror as Joyce is incinerated. It is not established in the movie as to what became of Bobby afterwards, although the official Saw 3D website states (along with Saw 3D Director Kevin Greturt) that he is still alive.
==Personality==
Bobby Dagen was a greedy and dishonest man, evident by the lie he had created for the sole reason of gaining wealth and fame. During his public performances, he always acted in a dramatic and exaggerated, yet charming way to convince everyone of his story, suggesting that he was a highly self-confident person. To protect his secret and make his story as believable as possible, he even lied to his wife and scarred his chest.
Nonetheless, he deeply and genuinely loved Joyce and his friends and endured great pain throughout his test to save them, even though it was all in vain. He showed great remorse and anguish for his actions, especially for lying to his wife. Because she had also been targeted for his misdeeds by Jigsaw, Bobby blamed himself for her imprisonment.
