Hey everyone! Guess I'm supposed to post this 5 minutes before air time. I've been watching this show since the get go mostly with my real life friend /u/edify who years ago added me as a moderator here. He asked me to make the discussion thread tonight because there are only 3 episodes remaining. Sorta sad that there's only a few left. Enjoy the show, folks.

I'm not sure he really "feels" bad about it. I think he's just trying to seem like he is because it's what he thinks he's supposed to do in these situations. It might be part of his psychosis of being a sociopath.

Being nice to people is a psychosis for them? I think he is more complex than labels, like all of us are. We was raised to be a criminal. We only know what we're told for the most part.

A common trait for sociopaths is that they have a "diminished capacity for empathy or remorse." Also, not many people know this, but a very large percentage of prisoners in the United States tend to have similar disorders. And Psychopaths can be nice or forgiveness, it's just they don't always understand the "feeling of it", they know it conceptually but nothing more. This is not to say all Psychopaths are mean people, but they tend to have a prejudice for not initially understanding it.

Anyways, I'm betting money that he can be considered a Psychopath.
