Going the wrong way?

We see, further on, in the story how Adele (not the singer, the character) takes upon a much more serious role, and decides to confront Robert, primarily by warning him that he must leave Edna alone, before she takes him seriously. Robert feels insulted and hopes that Edna takes him seriously, partly I guess because he is also interested in Edna. He also says that partly because of the little or no success he has had with Creole women in the past. He is then reminded by Adele, that if he were to court Edna, he would loose his reputation as a gentleman, due to the fact that Edna is a married woman.

We can see clearly here, more than ever, that as the characters undergo changes, they don't neccesarily go for the better good. Some of these changes, sometimes occur, and they are not the best role of development for the character, but quite the contrary, it makes them look more degenerate, and in some ways more Human. Ventress in the Clone Wars goes in fact the opposite way around, and appears to go from worse to better and not from better to worse.
