My Take - Okay.....so now it's about an overwhelming need to do "public service".  What does he think  a man with character flaws such as his can offer to the public?  He has "skin as thick as a rhinoceros", but after all the shame he's brought on to his family and friends you would think he would be happy to not have to be thick skinned and just go on with his life.  This is a man with serious emotional problems.
