Re: Night Watch (Discworld) spoilers ^

I dunno, I found that just a little too on the nose to be effective. Especially since Vimes also effectively uses torture techniques too in his own enhanced interrogation of Ferret and the narrative doesn't call him on it. The scene at the end is the one that nails it best.

I found Vimes' "torture tecniques"/"advanced interrogation" to be so remotely not on the same scale as Swing's torture dungeons, so I disagree that he needed to be "called out" by the narrative.

Just because it isn't on the same scale, does not mean it should be excused the way the text does. It is still the same old the ends justify the means crap.

The difference is, for me, we've spent so long in Vimes's head, and we continue to do so over the series, that I trust "his" judgement, so yeah, I'd believe that the end (finding out what Ferret knew) justified the means (making hissing noises and fake screaming, and letting Ferret's mind do the rest) in this instance. There was a specific end goal in sight, vs. Findthe Swing's goal of torturing people for fun and profit.
