** Carl hired Bob [[SuicideByAssassin to kill him]] and, having seen dozens of movies, made damned sure that if he decided to back off at the last minute the order could be revoked... but the kill request remains an IrrevocableOrder anyway because Bob feels bored.

* '''Exploited''': Carl is facing some budget cuts, so he stops paying Bob first, since Bob will just keep working for the hell of it.

** When Carl is screening his minions in search for TheMole amongst them, he immediately removes Bob from the list of suspects. Undercover cops don't pretend to be murderous madmen, and Bob assumes (hopefully) that the most RabidCop on the planet would not be so low as to kill hundreds of innocents to maintain his cover.

* '''Plotted A Good Waste''': Bob is showcased as the muscle of the evil FiveManBand early on, and his BloodKnight tendencies foreshadow that the rest of the band will struggle keeping him in line. Then he dies first, probably executed when he outlives his usefulness, to showcase that the evil FiveManBand is more professional than that.

** Bob is just way too powerful to be kept in check. In fact, Carl never even officially hired him: Bob 'hired' himself and effortlessly slaughtered anyone Carl asked to get rid of him. Nowadays Carl tries to make the most of it: giving Bob the most dangerous missions he can, praying that Bob ends up getting killed on one of them and that Bob doesn't decide to turn on him before that happens because there will be ''nothing'' he could do to stop him.
