Motive

Whether a motive is clear or unclear, cops know that somebody has to be motivated to have a motive, that's why they came up with a motive to call it. If it were lazy people doing the killing, it would be called something else, probably something like an unmotive. Possible unmotives might be the guy stole my doritos or smoked my last cigarette, and he knew deep down that he deserved it.
It wouldn't be a motive without the motivation to do it.

complimentary motive

Opposite yet similar to ‘ulterior motives’, a complimentary motive is when the original plan is pursued on a parallel path that compliments an ulterior pursuit.

More simply put, an ulterior motive takes the place of the original plan, whereas a complimentary motive suggests an option to compliment the original plan.
Pascal and Tina want Sunday bloody’s, so Pascal suggested the complimentary motive to go to the horseshoe bar and grill for bloody Mary’s, as she knew her crush, who owns the bar, would be there.

Motive

Motive, commonly used in British slang amongst poorer classes. Motive, a social gathering where people from the surrounding areas meet up smoke, drink etc. These people will socialise, listen to music and go home late at night. A motive can start at 6pm and last till 12pm.

Motives will usually take place on Fridays sometimes Saturdays and are very popular. Motives consist of anything from 50-200 people plus. Usually everyone attending is of the lower class and everyone fits in. A great way to bring a community together. Would recommend my local motives 👍. Dangerous people can go to a motive so don’t square up just ignore them.
