As something of a bonus in the game, we see Preacher Jebediah in a few cutscenes, claiming he will stop Calypso. He later ends up [[spoiler: trapped in the painting alongside a horde of people]]. At first it looks like he just got defeaed by Calpyso, like everybody else. But pay attention to his speech earlier in the game: "[...] I will wake the suffering from their slumber of fear! And once awaken, we shall rise on this very night and tear down your tower OF SIN!". [[BatmanGambit Being trapped there was his plan all along, so he could create an uprising from within the prison to free the people trapped in there]].
