He did not want slave representation, he said that since slaves were property in the south, just as cattle and horses in the north, they should not be represented.
A number of folks were there for many of the meetings but not at the signing. That was not necessarily because they opposed. Three men present at the time of signing specificallyrefused refused to sign the document: George Mason of Virginia, Edmund Randolph of Virginia, and Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts. Randolph later championed the Constitution at the Virginia ratifying convention, and Gerry became a big supporter of the Constitution after its ratification.

I think you are confused. The confederacy wanted to keep slavery.
The Constitution was finished on September 12, 1787. Of the 55 delegates, 42 attended most of the meetings, and 39 delegates (and the attesting secretary) actually signed the Constitution. Edmund Randolph and George Mason of Virginia and Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts refused to sign, due in part to the lack of a bill of rights.(See the Related questions for the list of those who did and didn't sign.)
I think James Madison and Elbridge Gerry were involved in making the 4th amendment, hope it helps

I don't think Gerry is the antagonist of the story but I can see how someone might think that he is. The whole reason why Marilyn went on the EDS ship was to visit Gerry, and it was very hard for her to watch Gerry find out about the situation. I think the antagonist is the cold equation itself. It's interfering with the protagonist (EDS pilot) because he doesn't want Marilyn to die.
