Ok, thought about this and no. I believe Richard Thornhill is Lester's best porn customer. The one who wanted to get pics of Sarah, without knowing anything about her really. I do believe he hires Lester as head of IT, but to force the issue with Sarah, including fucking the shit out of her, with Lester. He wants pics taken and Sarah to be blackmailed as he now has Lester under his thumb, but Lester refuses, but arranges for her to be fucked pretty regularly after Lester's hiring, in order to save Lester. The catch? Lester tells her that he was hired to let Richard control him, unknowingly to Lester. He tells her that he has years old information on Lester that would ruin his career (all of it, not just thee hospital) and then he loses everything. She asks what and he shows her his pics and says that he would take pictures of girlfriends and women he knew and sell them on-line for them. Richard was his biggest customer and Lester stopped everything upon meeting Sarah and he couldn't stand for her to know him that way. Sarah volunteers photos (starting to mull over selling them, for the money, but needs many questions from Lester answered. She also tells him that she will fuck him, but only with Lester taking part, so she can feel safe...she doesn't trust Richard in any way. Lester says, You have to agree though, because, otherwise, Richard will ruin me...Dan can't know anything about any of this. She argues but eventually agrees. Lester feels like all his plans have come together, even though he could have done without Richard. She tells him to bring Richard to he house tonight.Good points and psychoanalysis Psiber. I see you are especially fond of the idea Lester and his princess locking themselves away from the big bad wolf . I do hope Don explores finding a resolution to the lingering questions we have brought up in discussion sooner than later.
An interesting nugget in ch. 21 was brought up by Richard Thornhill: who did he tab for the head of IT at the hospital? Popular answer would be Lester, but I wonder if maybe an outsider would be hired. Through his discovery sees Lester’s involvement in the hack and assumes Sarah was complicit with her Chicago boyfriend.
What do you think? BTW, i am awesome at deducing mysteries before they hit final act, too.
