Hoping to end relations between Daisy and Jay, Tom did not hold back when confronting Gatsby.

George Wilson, compared to Tom, acts a lot like him except the abusiveness towards his wife, Myrtle. George owned a gas station in the Valley of Ashes and was very poor.

In the novel The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald, competition between Tom and Gatsby over the heart of Daisy has brought out the worst in both of them leading to their denounced relationship. While at the parlor of a suite in the Plaza Hotel, Gatsby tells Tom that Daisy never loved him and only married him because he was poor and she was tired of waiting for him. Tom was upset after Gatsby’s remark and informs everyone that Gatsby is a bootlegger and informs the others about the illegal activities Gatsby was involved in with Wolfsheim (Fitzgerald 130-135). Gatsby said this to Tom because he has grown to dislike him during his quest to win Daisy back. He does not like the way Tom treats Daisy and believes he should be the one that is with her, especially because of Tom’s actions toward Daisy such as talking on the phone with his mistress Myrtle, Wilson’s wife, in front of her (Fitzgerald 15).
Furthermore, Scott highlights the lack of ethical and moral responsibility of the parent in Blade Runner through Tyrell and the replicants, specifically Roy Batty. Tyrell is a predatory Capitalist; he displays little to no empathy towards the replicants as "they were designed to copy humans in every way except emotions" despite their development of it anyway. For that reason, a fail-safe installation of a four-year life span to prevent their development of emotions accentuates Tyrell's lack of moral and ethical responsibility for his 'children,' dehumanising Tyrell whilst reinforcing his motto for the replicants, 'more human than human.' Therefore, the parental qualities of the creators in both Frankenstein and Blade Runner are among the values challenged and reflected within the age that the texts were written

So the true causes of evil are her father trapping her and keeping her away from people and men so long that she literally ends up crazy. Her father was apparently a cruel old man who never wanted his daughter to find true love and move away from him. “None of the young men were quite good enough for Miss Emily and such.” (48) “So when she got to be thirty and was still single, we were not pleased exactly, but vindicated; even with insanity in the family she wouldn't have turned down all of her chances if they had really materialized.” (49, 50) These two quotes show that her father was a real evil man who never saw any man well enough for his daughter and by the time she was thirty she was still single and really did not have a clue what she had been through and that she
Edgar Allen Poe: The Tragic Life of an American Legacy Destruction seemed to follow him wherever he strayed. A vast empty hole lied where his heart should have. His undependable family, love interests, and employers led him to fill his voids with alcohol, drugs, and lustful women. With a life full of tragedy, addiction, and betrayal, nothing less is expected in Edgar Allan Poe’s stories, particularly “Ligeia,” “The Masque of the Red Death,” and “The Cask of Amontillado.” Poe’s childhood fled from a pampered infantry to a vastly empty adolescence. He was adopted by John Allan, a wealthy Scotch merchant, after the death of both of his parents.
