" HE WAS JUST ANOTHER GOOD-FOR-A-GIGGLE,GULLIBLE GOVERNOR". EXPLAIN....

Evans was more than a witty criminal. He understood the weaknesses of the jail authorities. He ensured that his plan was foolproof and that there are many layers to it. This confused the jail authorities and the Governor, who now appear as "gullible" to the readers. Thus, it is Evans who has the last laugh and not the law enforcers or the Governor.
