So funny thing about this episode: the real game ended in the reverse. We actually did help the champion of bad hair, but then he pulled through with a big favor for us as thanks. At the time, we knew we were probably doing well, but the player Lawry stood in for refused a moral turn-around, so he wound up scamming people to steal their money on false pretenses. That would have led to a bunch of the donations being revoked, and probably additional trouble, so the Champion of Bad Hair helped solve the problem at the last minute so as to wrap everything up.
Of course it doesn't feel like as good of a story if you have a character doing bad deeds and then doubling down and getting worse. You've got to do something with that, so for the podcast version, Lawry's character grows a little, and we can say he's still the hero in the end, whether he made the right or wrong choice ultimately.
