- He goes into Lily Moran's personal room and attempts to rape her, despite claiming that he wouldn't do it a few seconds ago.
- Casually shoots a captured hostage who attempted to escape while ordering his men to kill all others who attempt to resist or flee the station, this results in the rest of the peacekeepers being killed when the henchmen found them trying to escape.
- Orders the supposed crew of another shuttle massacred when he noticed that a food supply was being delivered in that shuttle.
- Kidnaps the main character's best friend Dan Block and hold him hostage when he kills three of Alex's henchmen including Quaid, showing no empathy or care to their deaths all the while.
- Kills Dan when Chase refused to surrender his location to him under a few seconds, while also calling the Chairman and threatening him to sign Alex's forms to complete control of Stella 9 under three hours or he would destroy the Eastern continent.

- Thinks about blowing Dome 4 up when he is growing impatient with Chase trying to stop him.
- When he realizes that Lily is Chase's wife, he immediately grabs her, throws her into a chair and points a gun on her head, threatening to kill her in a few seconds if she doesn't tell him about the whole situation with Chase.
- When Lily tells him the truth, he ties her mouth and holds her as a personal hostage to Chase.
- Self-detonates a bomb inside Dome 4 to blow it all up with Chase, Lily, and the forty-one scientists inside while trying to get on his own personal shuttle and invade Stella 9 by force.

- Although he claims he'll give his henchman and the women on the first shuttle power and glory, he proves he only cares for himself by tossing said women into space to die and showing zero concern towards his henchmen's death. He only cares about Lily for his perverted lust, trying to rape her and then trying to kill her multiple times later on in the film.
