No, I'm not saying it makes him nice. I'm saying, the video seems to
fill in more background on Doc, some of it 'negative', eg. helping
cops with shakedown schemes. That's already been pointed out. My point
was, even without the video, we know Doc as some sort of skip tracer,
which does not have overwhelmingly 'positive' connotations in itself.
