People who are left out often seek attention. In the movie Cheaters the character Irwin Flickas was one of the Academic Decathlon members until he was no longer one of the main contributors due to his inability to pay attention in class, even through he was the one who provided the team with the cheating. Later on Dr. Gerard Plecki advised Irwin to disguise himself as one of the judges for the speech contest. After the team won, Irwin was segregated from all the recognition and pride. Irwin felt betrayed by his team mates and was irritated for not receiving the acknowledgment and glory he worked so hard for.

The main key is not to get caught. Al though Dr. Gerard Plecki and his Decathlon team was finally caught cheating, he made sure that from now on the Decathlon system would be more secure, making sure that the team that won really deserves to win.

I do believe in integrity and morality. Cheating is a bad thing, but honestly I have never met a person that has not cheated. All of the successful people had to cheat to get to where they are today. Wealthy lawyers and business men and women make a good living off of lying and cheating. Jolie from Cheaters commented "We all know winning isn't everything. It's the only thing." This quote gave notice to the people who were willing to take the extra risk in order to become successful in life.
