AM reads the best opening voiceover EVER:
My name is Victoria Winters. The foundations of Collinwood house a frightful secret, a secret that has lain dormant for eighteen years, a secret awakened by a stranger. But there is another stranger, one who is to awaken and unleash a force that will affect the lives of everyone.
Hang on to your socks!
Jason has a hard time managing Willie, as we see here: You made me promises, Willie complains. You said everything would be great. We’d have the easy life. I could have everything I wanted--but what have I seen? Just that new suit you’re wearing. Well, what do you want--the top or the bottoms? Jason snaps.
Jason tells Willie that he's had this particular scheme in mind for eighteen years--talk about a loooooong con! Willie is more of a smash-and-grab type who wants his gratification yesterday and doesn't care if he has to get his hands dirty (short of murder, though, I'd guess) to get it. But he's unwilling to actually put any thought into it--that's Jason's department. I think Jason keeps Willie around for the dirty-hands part of his plans.
