What are Hugo's motives? Why does he manipulate the other characters?

I think Hugo’s motive for murder is he is jealous of his dad’s relationship with Otis. Hugo receives no love or attention from his father. He feels the need to make Otis seem less desirable and perfect so his father will pay more attention to him. Through manipulating Otis and other people around him Hugo succeeds in ruining his life and ending others. Hugo specifically manipulates other characters because the only way he could get to Otis was to weave a complicated web of lies. It is a tragic tale filled with lies, jealousy and deceit.
