Orgon was not simply competent, but actually insightful. He was the person who seemed to care less about his mother, children, brother, and wife and more about Tartuffe as he was the “holy” man Orgon adored the most. I think he is so vulnerable to Tartuffe as he wants to increase his chances of getting into heaven. He hopes to enhance the family’s image by bringing Tartuffe in. In fact, he wants Tartuffe to control the family.
