Discussion I love how Faraday's character is just butchered in this one scene
First of all, don't get me wrong, I love Faraday's character as a whole especially with his potrayal as a super duped and professional fixer like Hands does in the game.
But holy shit, after all of that building momentum in epsiode 9-10 when he thinks what's gonna happened after turning Lucy to Arasaka, especially the "Night City does not reward complacency." "I only considered Arasaka Counterintel as a first stepping stone." He's just given the most baffled reaction from Adam Smasher, who is literally Arasaka's boogeyman to say he's pretty much insignificant as fuck.
And IMO this makes sense as to a fixer's place within Night City, especially one's who always thinking of aurafarm without thinking the possibility of their plan backfired like Dexter Deshawn, Faraday play with fire hoping to get out clean only to get burned.
