  • Alternate Character Interpretation: Was Wade a decent if troubled man who was driven over the edge by the stress of his personal life and an (imagined) conspiracy theory, or was he a lost cause from the get-go who would have snapped and self-destructed even without the imagined conspiracy?
  • Jerkass Woobie: Wade. Hot-tempered and aggressive, but seeing the mistreatment he (and his brother Rolfe) suffered from Glen, it's understandable.
  • Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Sure, Wade was a difficult person to have around, but it's like his daughter Jill wasn't even trying. When not sulking and giving Wade the silent treatment, she would whine about absolutely everything, including such trivial things as the truck that Wade drove while his car was in the shop.
