I’m not following this exactly… Unless it is a riff on Plutarch and doing a good job as a κόλακας means telling someone who they aren’t, so they’ll think you’re great. (see: How to Tell a Flatterer from a Friend)
Just once, I’d like Jake to get caught goofing off or having to take responsibility for his mistakes. Or do his share of work. Sadly for Baldo, don’t think that’s going to happen.
