I just think he could either be a foil to Weiss, or a smug ally. *Shrugs*. We have seen this type of character many times. They could go either way. It really depends on the relationship with other characters. In this instance, Whitley seems to be fond of Weiss, so it is very possible that he will be there to support her/encourage her during this trying time. He may even tease or taunt her in the process. He may even manipulate her for her own good, or what he thinks is her own good. On another hand, he possess a certain cunningness about him that could potentially prove dangerous to Weiss. I could see him hurting Weiss in an effort to destroy the WF. I do not believe he will (as I hardly know anything about his character), I can just see the possibility.

However, I do not think he's evil, nor do I even think he'll intentionally help the bad guys. To be quite honest, the more I watch the episode, the more I like Whitley. In fact, I want to see more of him. I hope he and Weiss develop a funny but strong relationship. Perhaps the reason people seem to think he's evil is because of the way his lines were delivered. As if he had something up his sleeve.
