Let’s stick to fictional works rather than extrapolating to any real life cases. A common trope in fictional works is that one of the group of good guys is discovered to be a “traitor”. They do something that allows the bad guys an advantage, losing the lives of one or more of the good guys in the process. Later it’s discovered that the “traitor” was doing it because the bad guys had his/her daughter/wife/husband/son etc hostage and would kill them if the “traitor” didn’t comply. Later the hostage situation is made moot, either they’re killed off or rescued and the “traitor” goes back to being one of the team. How do you generally feel about the “traitor” character? _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/3239))_ ---

Based on my own recent experience: I reserved a car for 1 day while my regular car was being serviced. I was told it was an EV, so I asked the rental place if it would come fully charged, and could I make it home (40 miles over a 2000 ft hill)? The answer was basically, “no guarantees how charged the car will be, but you can just charge it at a local fast charger!” _Poll ([view on site](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/polls-only-no-discussion/953642/3243))_ ---
