In "Sweat," Sykes, Delia's abusive spouse, is the bad guy. He initially arrives in the narrative by torturing Delia. By hiding a snake in Delia's laundry, Sykes devises a scheme to poison her. The snake bites Sykes in the neck, mortally poisoning him. However, Sykes faced karmic fate at the end of the story when he himself was bitten by the snake which he brought to scare Delia.
