Personality[]
Pavel Bartek shooting his own agents
Pavel Bartek is a cold and selfish man who cares very little for other people's lives. This is evident both with holding Jaguar captive in a dark cell for an unknown span of time, and when he shoots his own agents just before attempting to flee in a helicopter. His cowardice is shown when he offers Pickle Rick $100m worth of bonds belonging to the people in order to keep his own life. He has a habit of losing his temper whenever someone speaks out of turn or disobeys orders. He can be seen to be manipulative when he lies about Jaguar's daughter being alive in order to employ him against Pickle Rick, when she had already been dead for some time. However, the director is also relatively cunning and is nearly able to outsmart Pickle Rick, though it is eventually he who is outwitted.
