It’s unclear when - or if - Marty will ever catch on, but Schwartz says the head of the pod has so much going on personally and professionally that he’s oblivious to Clyde’s two-faced nature and his willingness to risk everything to get ahead. “Watch it slowly in the background and you’ll see the villainy in Clyde come out.” “Clyde looks at Marty and thinks he would do anything to f- over that guy,” he says, noting that while Marty may think the two are tight, such isn’t the case for Clyde. It’s that ruthlessness that Schwartz says defines Clyde - a good guy who will turn on a dime and throw a friend under the bus if it means he can get ahead in his career. He could have a sexually transmitted disease and be like, ‘Dude, guess what! I got an STD!’ “ “Nothing phases Jean-Ralphio, he’s so positive. “Clyde would f- them over and make them no money and Jean-Ralphio would still think it was the best idea he ever had,” he adds. “Jean-Ralphio would get hit by a car and find a way to make money and give it to Clyde.” “ would come in wearing a nice suit, single out Jean-Ralphio - because he’s way more gullible than Tom - and say, ‘I can do this for you, all you need to do is give me X amount of money and I’ll turn your entire business around,” Schwartz laughs.
