I think you’re responding to the same Ben problems I had but from a different vantage- in my long spoiler critique, I called Ben a macguffin. He’s just there to through dramatic tension into the story where it’s most effectiveI know all about the difference.
As it’s been written Marty and Wendy have their own personality issues lol. Glass houses and such.
And I will, for whatever reason I feel no sympathy for Ben. With how it’s been portrayed.
ETA:
He leaves and heads to the casino after being told how much of a bad idea that is. One thing is without doubt imo, he’s definitely written to be extremely ignorant and naive.
To the actor’s credit he makes him a legitimately interesting character (unlike Erin whose character has similar issues)
