He was more like Jimmy in "Goodfellas" breaking Tommy's balls and egging him on after Spider mouthed off to him ("You gonna let him get away with that?&quot , and then pissed when Tommy guns Spider down.

He's a NY slumlord that's having a fun old time manipulating people, he gets off on it; and that actually makes him even more reprehensible than if he were a true believer.
