Some people wake up at 6 AM.
Some people wake up at noon.
Morris has been a Rip Van Winkle, slowly coming to his daylight senses. He's one of the few who were under bubba's spell to have done so. I don't trust him a lot but sometimes, as he crawls away from his intoxication with bubba, I can tell he's got ahold of the truth.
It takes an enormous effort to separate one's self from the likes of bubba and his WINO because they mess with people's thought processes. I give Dick credit and hope he continues to rearrange his brain.
That's one way of looking at it... another way is that he got rudely jolted out of his comfy lifestyle because he got caught with a whore. Had to seek employment elsewhere, and he just adapted to the wishes of his new employer.
Morris started out as a political gun for hire, there's no evidence that he's changed.
