That being said, [[VirtuousCharacterCopy Wells]] is a {{downplayed|Trope}} example compared to his inspiration; he refuses to close the beaches due to fears that cancelling the windsurfing regatta might derail his political career, but still authorizes heavy defenses to keep the shark away (unfortunately, the shark [[{{Determinator}} is not one to let this get in the way of its feeding]]). He later personally attempts a plan to capture the shark that, while [[TooDumbToLive utterly idiotic]], is still more of a personal effort that Vaughn did. The worst aspects of Vaughn's character [[DecompositeCharacter are instead given]] to Wells' aide Matt.
