'Now it's my turn to play my part,' Luck thought, pausing mid-step. 'Though honestly… her performance is so convincing, I'm starting to feel a little pressured.'

They whispered to each other while throwing judgmental looks at Shane, like he was a sick psycho.
There were other women around, yet he went after a married one—worse, his best friend's wife.

That's why he kept talking behind Luck's back, even after being treated fairly.
People like that were dangerous—and maybe that's exactly why the system gave the mission in the first place.
