What Makes Him Pure Good?[]
- He's a caring father and husband and he's affable to his colleagues.
- He immediately joins the investigation of strange murders, committed by an unnamed car.
- He proposes to help with Everett's funeral, when the latter is killed by the same car.
- When he knows that the car had no driver inside, he orders to reschedule the festival rehearsal to another time, or better yet to another day to.
- When the rehersal is still held and the car appears and traps lots of people, including children, inside the cemetery, he orders his colleagues to stop the car no matter what. He also rushes there himself. Thus he prevents the car from harming countless people.
- After the car escapes, he renews the chase and orders his colleagues not to miss the car.
- He personally stops the car and tries to look inside.
- When Lauren is killed by the same car and Wade's colleague Chas puts the blame on himself, Wade comforts him.
- He decides to explode that car. When he sees it in his own garage and later sees Marge, who tries to enter the garage, he orders her to go back home.
- He selflessly fights the car while his colleagues prepare a trap for the car, and he later even stands on the car's way to lure it in the trap. Thus he prevents the car from killing more victims and saves the entire town from it.
- While he did refuse to believe that the car was possessed, he considered this information no longer important for him. Even then, he refused to believe in a polite way.
- While he did show an intention to harm the car, such as ordering to prepare a trap for it or shooting it when he stopped it, he saw the car as a threat, which he couldn't eliminate otherwise.
