You sure about that?
He keeps talking about saving her but there is nothing to save.
That can only suggest he is mental ill. And those pepol have strange way of thinking how to save people. Something like i have to save her from her brother then i can be together with her. And now that i saved her she is not happy but mad at me ungrateful bitch.
That happens in a lot of movies for example. And then the hero apears and saves the maid.
I'd agree that he's mentally ill - but the motivation is pretty clearly laid out to be "I have arbitrarily decided that the older sibling is self-evidently some sort of criminal. As soon as I started looking into them, I found sealed files, and my superior in the police force is clearly part of some sort of cover-up. The harder I push, the more my own career is suffering. This unrepentant criminal has ties to corrupt cops, so they can never be brought to justice by official channels. So I have to do the right thing on my own, even if that means breaking the law myself. It's for the Greater Good."
I'd say that, at
most, his motivation for kidnapping Ellie is "I need to get this young and impressionable girl away from the corrupting influence of her older sibling." Maybe, at a stretch, you could argue that he's trying to lure you out so he can take you out himself (bringing you to "justice"). But I don't think there's
any real implication of attraction (sexual or otherwise) in that scene.
Sure, you can read into it whatever else you want... but at that point, it's not about what's in the game, as much as it is about what's in your head.
