I admire his persistence. However, I wish he'd leave her alone.
Whatever he's been promised or threatened with, I think I'd rather see her help him with it, than put him down like a rabid dog or something.
Everyone deserves their dreams, including him. It is sick that these two have to compete to the death for not even what they want, but what they need.
Why would you assume he deserves his dreams? He is in prison and most likely not for the same reason as Bern.
Now they could just let them sit in prison and rot all day, but they're a very profit passed society. You can't even get directions without paying a fee. So far, no evidence seems to support the three Bern went up against were nothing more than real criminals committing crimes against innocent people.
Bern obviously believes people should do good for goods sake. It's why she's in prison. She forced someone to do something they didn't want to do, because Bern wanted them saved but didn't have the money to get her father the medical attention.
With Bern, there's at least a moral grey area. With the three other combatants, there could be, but likely less so. The prison is probably very much filled with very bad people.
