It's not the Robin Hood story folks wanted but attractive, well-heeled young guy who had back surgery, unrelenting pain to the point of impacting his mental health. He withdraws from his peeps, eventually goes to a dark place, and eventually takes it out on insurance CEO.
Still relatable.

Donald Trump is now pushing a widely underqualified MAGA loyalist—Kash Patel—for FBI Director.
Even Bill Barr, Trump’s former attorney general, wrote in his memoir that Patel would’ve landed that job “over my dead body.”
