 - Instead of doing drugs and smuggling drugs for the British dude, Jack should start writing and be an author because his passion for writing. He was so into it.

 - Hamilton told Jack to not leave any evidence behind , but then Jack are writing his stupid diary. He probably going to get caught off that.
