* StupidEvil: First, Roller sleeps with Virginia behind Desna's back. Then he screws her out of the money she's rightfully owed, and belittles her when she tries to go above his head to get her cut. ''Then'' he tries to rape Virginia - nearly strangling her to death in the process (only stopping because Desna interrupted them and gave Virginia an out), and tries to get Desna to "finish the job". She promptly tries to drown him.
