Jimmy

Jimmy is a jealous, spiteful, and manipulative man. He considers himself the bottom of the barrel. He is selfish and only prioritizes himself and his needs. He manipulates others into believing that he is the hardworking and selfless person he portrays himself to be. The best case of Jimmy's manipulation is in Chapter 16 when he guilt trips and flatters Daisuke into helping knock Swansea out by creating a spiked cocktail before breaking into the utility room. Jimmy then has him go through a hazardous vent system.

He has the desire to be higher on the ladder, ungrateful to Curly, who is the reason he landed a job at Pony Express and was able to become the co-pilot of the Tulpar, feeling unsatisfied with his current position. He grows sick of hearing how great of a leader others think Curly is, and has delusions that Curly only cares for himself. He further indulges in delusions in Chapter 7 when Curly delivers the news of the Employee Contract Termination where he is the only one being promoted. Jimmy rants at the birthday party, telling Curly "so I guess you got what you wanted without the guilt. Headed for bigger and better, right?" and convincing the others except Daisuke that they were ruined as they had nowhere else to go for work.

When the collision of the Tulpar takes place, Jimmy is left unscathed while Curly is badly wounded trying to fix the ship's course after Jimmy sabotaged it. He pushes the blame onto Curly, claiming he was insane and leaving the rest to believe Jimmy was innocent whilst Curly was the irresponsible and evil captain Jimmy wanted them to believe he was.

He verbally abuses Anya as well, claiming he has to do everything around the ship with Curly in his botched hospitalized state. When Anya asks if Jimmy could feed Curly his painkillers, he snaps, claiming "I've entertained your sentimentality up until now'" before listing his duties of "Find the Code Scanner, Figure Out the Door Code, Get the Axe, Chop up the Foam (But Not Too Much), Give Curly his Fucking Medicine" and finishing with "But I'm bearing it I have to. Because the captain has to take fucking responsibility on this goddamn ship!"
