I will answer these two questions based only on what we have seen in class; the four first episodes of season one and the first episode of season two.
The relationship between Jack and Hannibal
The word power is essential in this relationship. Throughout the first four episodes there is a power play between them, there it seems that Hannibal is winning. When first meeting Hannibal, Jack have to wait. Hannibal is the one in charge and decides when Jack can come in. Inside, Jack lays himself flat saying that he is not superior in the presence of someone as skilled as Hannibal, whereas Hannibal then says that he thinks Jack is superior, fuelling Jack’s self-esteem. Not only has Hannibal the pleasure of being recommended by Alana Bloom, whom …show more content…
That is interesting, but something more is that Hannibal obviously has gotten under Jack’s skin. After the foresight in the beginning, Jack again sits at Hannibal’s table. Hannibal say they mourn the death of a friend, Will. Jack struggling with guilt takes the fault, but Hannibal then says that they are both to blame. Hannibal is again getting the trust of Jack when he says that it is for the best if Jack investigate Hannibal, therefore pushing the suspicion of his back. Jack also trust him to take Will’s place as an investigator. Showing that Hannibal indeed have made his goal manipulating Jack into trusting him and relying on him.

As we see him, he is a cold and straightforward person. While other let their emotions take the best of them, Jack questions and are sceptical. This can be seen when we talk about Abigail. The others think of her as a damaged girl who lost her parents and need help. Jack strongly believes that she was an accomplice to her father’s murders, and nothing the others says can convince him …show more content…
Even though he is advised against letting Will into the field the way he does, Jack knowns that Will can give them answers others cannot. This weight higher than Will’s mental health it seems. On the other side, Jack seeks out Hannibal Lecter to help Will. Hannibal tells Will “You need a way to get out from the dark places Jack sends you.” Clearly, Jack do care enough to get this deal in place, but whether it is from him caring for Will or wishes to use him more, is unclear. When Freddie Lounds posted dirt around Will on her website, you find Jack threatening her and agrees to let her go if she no longer will write about Will. It can be seen as an act of kindness towards Will, but then again it was that article that let the suspect get
