* VillainHasAPoint: Deconstructed. Vick mockingly calls out Torus on his extreme methods which supposedly break Interpol regulations, along with him ordering [[KickTheDog Ice to knock out Ned]] [[ReasonYouSuckSpeech for telling off Torus over his methods]]. Except, Vick is nothing but a pretentious crony of Drake who acts obnoxious and snarky on a daily basis, and essentially serves to stir up trouble like he did here. Torus, on the other hand, was under the influence of Drake’s green crystal at the time which influenced the behavior he exhibited and is being framed for something he couldn’t control. Basically, Vick knew this was the case and chose to make a point based on a false narrative created by Drake’s plan.
