: A long-time hit man discontented with his job and life, becoming emotional and childlike as he questions his duties. He is ashamed of the fact that he is part of the lowest social class and dreams of a better life. Ben works in a field where he is expected to do as he is told, not question orders and accept them as routine. His newfound perspective is extremely dangerous. He forgets that within the world of crime he is easily expendable and replaceable.
Gus: The more senior hit man. He has been Ben’s partner for a long time, but his loyalty is to the boss, Winston. Gus accepts his criminal status and does not question his social ranking. He is tired of listening to Ben ramble. He does his job as a matter of course and spends his free time making model boats and creating woodwork.
