While writing a post, I will always be thrown off the Internet, and the post will be destroyed, if I don't save it. I forgot that, and a reply about Lamar and his winning personality that I thought was quite nice was obliterated.
Take two? Lamar is a different sort of Trask in that he has no power, nor can he have any expectation of real power over others, and he knows it, so as much as he may want power deep down, he knows he won't get it. So he doesn't pontificate freely as the other Trasks did. When others mouth off at him, he just has to take it and fume inside. That's the fun thing about Lamar, how he has to take the criticism and hold his lid on tight.
He can only hope for pathetic substitutes for real power, such as lording over dead people, and forcing some woman who doesn't like him to marry him, and no real force or persuasion or influence is involved... he does it by making an arrangement with her father. What a weasel... but weasels are fun!
