About the begging, oftentimes PE's do this to get the hero off guard to attack or leave to die. Here, he was bargaining to his son not to kill him, because he just wanted to get away with his life. And even with Maureen's rape, despite being a catalyst to the series, he had no knowledge to the events that happened, nor was he a "man behind the man." He's just a representative of Horrible Hollywood.
