Vegas is a proper villain

Vegas hired the female assassin to attack Porsche (and Kinn) to test his skills...

BEFORE his dad asked him to follow Porsche

Vegas dated Tawan first before Kinn, but Vegas wanted Tawan to infiltrate the main family by dating Kinn, something Tawan looked miserable over because he loved Vegas so much.

Vegas has a solid villain motive for doing this - he wanted to prove himself to his abusive homophobic father

The way his dad killed Ken makes me think the dad believed something was happening between them ("What the hell are you and Vegas doing?!") which only made him more violent towards Ken. And the only reason his dad demanded he follow Porsche is because he is using what he hates about his son to his advantage.

In both of the examples, Vegas does not have a true attachment to either Porsche or Tawan. He doesn't care about Porsche's attractiveness, and looks at himself in the mirror rather than Tawan. He doesn't see them, only what they can do for him, so he is a step ahead of his dad each time; before his dad can truly use him, he'll use others first. He has talked often about the main family's treatment of his family (that is a different post!), but it reinforces his rationalization. His family has been used many times by the main family to clean up the dirty messes, so they aren't family. They are employees. Can't care if everyone is a pawn and disposable in the main family's game of chess including himself.

Like Disney, moms are dead here, which supports Vegas being distant from people. Love is a weakness that Kinn has shown, and Vegas noted ("Kinn's got his heart broken again because he gets fooled again by the ones he trusts most and the main family will get weaker and weaker"). Can't get hurt if you don't get attached. Can't be fooled if you don't trust anyone. We see this trust/distrust motif throughout the series with all the characters, except one...

Pete.

Who is loyal to the main family.

Who is fine with being a pawn.

Who volunteers to be disposable.

Who trusts unconditionally.

Vegas isn't an antagonist for Kinn. When we really look at it, Kinn and Vegas are parallels. They are on different ends of the same spectrum and battle with the same vices. Vegas needs a foil, a Dr. Jekyll to his Mr. Hyde, and Kinn isn't it. Kinn didn't save Porsche by battling Vegas. Kinn isn't playing a cat-and-mouse game with Vegas. It's Pete, which means Pete is the true hero of this arch.

Vegas is a proper villain...for Pete.

The most important thing is not winning the battle, but we need to win the war. I will definitely seek my revenge later >PETE<

Directors and editors, I salute y'all for the intentional edit.

For the people asking: “Well, why didn’t they try peaceful protests?”

Um…they did.
