Lewis Whippey’s gloves are used to handle the exposed cannabis resin, protecting his hands from the sticky substance and preventing fingerprints. Their use underscores the careful, premeditated nature of the operation and the need to avoid leaving incriminating evidence. The gloves also symbolize Lewis’s reluctant complicity—he is forced to participate in covering up the discovery, further entangling him in the criminal enterprise.
