Adam-started out an innocent, fully-grown babe in the woods, then started to learn more words and more about the world (under the wisdom of Professor Stokes), he was on his way to becoming a fully decent, honest human being and then what happens..... [spoiler]BAM!!! Nicholas Blair is what happened, taught Adam all the wrong things, that it was okay to lie, cheat, even kill to get what he wants, and Adam turns into a mean, threatening, violent bully who when he doesn't get what he wants right away or something goes wrong, kidnaps and tries to murder an innocent woman (Vicki), and even almost strangled Carolyn, the woman he fell in love with, at one point.[/spoiler]
