However, as the Captain spends more time with Leggatt, his double, the Captain’s personality starts to switch as well. As a result, he becomes more determined to make his crew follow his instructions. This is portrayed by the Captain’ response to the inquiry of one of his mates, as the Captain replies, “The only reason you need concern yourself about is because I tell you to do so” (Conrad 21).
