The Banker gets to rule the world. But only by making more promises, "selling more" of himself and borrowing for what he finally realises is impossible to get. He's lethally in love with money, power and greed, but there's no way to turn back. The only way is to continue even further, even deeper towards the inevidently closing certain catastrophe. Being an ingenious cheater even able to cheat himself, however, the Banker manages to ensure everyone around himself time after time, that everything will just get better by following his advice and by pushing ever further, stronger and faster. And amazingly he does manage to rise from plain catastrophes again and again, and viewers really cannot tell in advance, when it'll actually be the obvious and inevitable end of story. Until it actually is, and everything lies in ruins and the Banker in shame. As a specialty, the very end of this story could each and every time change a bit, so the spectators could never really know when and how the story ends. At the end, the Banker could save the world numerous times again and again in an intensifying atmosphere, but the number of saves could change each time and include different ideas. It could even be improvised to a degree to hide the actual end to the very last second. And there could even be options for a surprising happy end prepared, so no one really could tell in advance. ----------------------------- ...but replace the one banker with the five members of the 'elite'.
THE FIVE are the status quo.
They employ many ways to remain on the good side of the people. There is always somebody else to blame for the problems of society. They will give out charity in the millions. The people love them, not realizing that charity is not change.
The HEROINE is the unsure future.
The Elite then latch on to the Anonymous Alter-Ego, and have a few fanatics perform violence on it's accord. Maybe they manage to manipulate the Alter-Ego for a bit.
This is how they manipulate the public opinion. The YOUNG BANKER is the other side of the unsure future.
He might be drawn to the mysterious undefinable innocence of the Heroine. He may try to win her for himself, only to be rejected for his power. Only in the end do we realize that the Young Banker was the one pulling all the strings in the background all along. And only when he makes the choice which path to follow.
