Crain posted:I wanted to say that if either Jack or Aku had kinda stopped participating in their mutual rivalry Scaramouch would have been more "You know who I am?" but he actually was. In the original seasons, Jack was always torn between two objectives: helping those in need and find a time portal to stop Aku permanently. The problem is his code of honor was so strong he would always sacrifice the chance for the portal to save the weak of the week. Before, he could always brush it off as "oh well, there's surely another one somewhere". After several decades, it doesn't look like he can convince himself with that excuse anymore, AND the helpless are still being terrorized without end. Much like with Jack Bauer and the seemingly endless supply of terrorists, Jack may as well not even bother saving people one week if odds are some other random rear end in a top hat comes in behind him to gently caress them up the next. He's failed both his goals, and he's painfully aware of it, but he's trapped in an undying Sisyphean hell nonetheless. Kerning Chameleon fucked around with this message at 06:20 on Mar 13, 2017 |

J.A.B.C. posted:Is it really professional help when he is the person he is talking to? Its just another flavor of crazy. And his mental double is trying to calm him down, while Jack's is trying to goad him into suicidal despair.
