VLVL 3 Zoyd & Hector

[Terrance]

First off, the symbiotic is one of frustration (Tweety and Sylvester). 


Rob says (replying to Otto), 

"And Hector's no 'fascist cop.'"

Oh, no? 

What kind of cop is Hector? 


 
It seem to me that what is forego rounded in this chapter is work,
career, business deals and partnerships, rackets. Not that this fact
makes it much different than most of the other chapter in the book. 

Zoyd's relationship with Hector develops. While it begins with exchanges
of money,  drugs,  and information, it ends up involving Zoyd's wife and
child, his mother-in-law and her family, his home, and his house, his
job and his career, and his status (legal, reputation, place, fame, and
so on). 

The relationship begins, as fortune's wheel, er, would have it, when
Zoyd happens to be the one to answer Hector's knock at the door of the
surfer's crib he's sharing with Van Meter and the other boyz in the Band
and some surfers. What is Hector up to? Well, he's a field agent and
he's working on a pilot project in the South Bay area. That project, in
the real world and in the novel, is a fascist one. 

So, Hector may or not be a fascist cop (I think he is), but it doesn't
matter because he works for fascist project.
