Hector
tells Ajax that he objects to the political hypocrisy he has been
forced to commit. Ajax offers to arrange a divorce for Jason and
Helen if Hector would like Helen for himself, but Hector insists
he feels nothing for her. In an effort to win Hectors confidence,
Helen writes him a letter detailing Ajaxs crimes and his plans
for Hectors Presidency. Hector throws it away without opening it.
Leo retrieves the letter and takes it to Ajax, hoping to be paid
for the information. Instead, Ajax throws Leo out and, feeling betrayed,
shifts his support to Hectors opponent, Larkins Brown. With Ajaxs
help, the Brown campaign improves sharply. |
