A natural at the hook, the Tommy's moral sensibilities are deeply troubled by Grigoris' less-than-honest sales strategy, which he markets to Tommy under the "rob the rich to feed the poor" label. While Grigoris feeds scruple-free off of the paranoid West Los Angeles psyche, Tommy complicates the plot until even Robin Hood risks entrapment...
