When he repeats himself for a bigger fee. Or when he would rather obey than lose his client.

When the addictive nature of making a buck is passed off as intimacy--that's probably what everyone hates about Kincade.

Pandering seems too mild a term... but only until one find's one's self doing some variation of the very same thing, in order to fund other work that's more personal or meaningful.
