None of this compares to Dr. Gordon’s adultery or many of the other victims in the franchise.
Why was Adam Tested in ‘Saw’?
He watched Dr. Gordon enter a motel room to cheat on his wife but did nothing about it.
Two strangers awaken in a room with no recollection of how they got there, and soon discover they’re pawns in a deadly game perpetrated by a notorious serial killer.
His career encourages him to be a bystander to misconduct without taking action.
His time within the trap acts as reasoning forhis test being completely unfair.
How Does Adam Compare to Other Trap Victims?
If there is one thing John Kramer can be relied on, it’s reasoning.
Look at the major trap plot ofSaw V, at first glance, the Fatal Five are total strangers.
Their lack of relationships causes them to be individualistic, making certain of their own survival over helping others.
The timeline of the Saw franchise is a twisted game all its own.
This theme can be seen within most of themajor trap plots of the franchise.
The main trap plots hinge on the connections between those involved.
These traps don’t allow the victims to test their will to survive, they cement their death.
However, inescapable traps are worth mentioning as Adam’s trap accidentally became almost inescapable.
The placement of a key acts as a complete counter to the inescapable nature of later traps.
Sawis available to stream on Amazon Prime in the U.S.
