If you were with someone and they felt the need to steal- that would say a great deal about the relationship, wouldn't it? Let's presume he knew she was stealing- or even stealing for him? Rank situation = Rank people. At least he was efficient in his overwhelming rankness.

If she was stealing behind his back, there's obviously something not right in the Trust department.

Whatever way you look at it, he's a survivor. She's a Plant. Sorry to disagree, But.
