Dueling banjos indeed?

nobody is allowed to tell him he is wrong

At this point, Tom is basically supposed to be the equivalent of Superman. He should be able to see everything, remember everything, communicate perfectly. So, it’s sacrilege for him to not see something that’s right under his nose. Then, when he asks for it and no one says anything because it’s sacrilege, it becomes…

“Let’s see her waltz her way out of that.”~~~ My sister reading STAR.

You know who else only wanted to party with white people with blonde hair?

That’s exactly the kind of mundane situation that quickly becomes absolutely terrifying if you’re dealing with an abuser.

Right. Remember his girlfriend was sent to whatever Scientology jail/hell is just for asking Miscavige to repeat a sentence she didn’t understand. You really think they’re going to tell him the “cookie stuff” has been right in front of him the whole time?

Except he wasn’t all like “Oh ok cool.” He was a weird asshole about it, even though it was “right there.”

It’s got the makings of a beautiful metaphor, doesn’t it?

I went to an Ivy, maybe Yale, and knew a bunch of SAE guys in college too. They aren’t as bad as you make it seem and it’s more likely that these girls that were turned away were just some local unemployed townies and not Yale students. They were turned down probably because they looked very townie and not so much…

Yeah, the assistants are the batshit ones. Not Tom. I like how you “think”.

He’s a big cheese within Scientology. Like the biggest cheese they have, outside of David Muscavige. I’m going to guess that they were not allowed to be too upfront with him.

Like... what else can’t they tell him? I mean, what other wacky shit does he do that his handlers are all like “Hahaha yeah Tom sounds cool haha yeah okay.”

That’s creepy as fuck.

EXACTLY! He’s freaking the fuck out about the cookie dough which is right in front of him and NONE of his handlers can say anything to him about it.

What’s weird about it is that they can’t tell him that it’s right there. It’s not about the cookies.

I think, in this case, it DID need to be in a press conference. There was already so much weird, unconfirmed rumor floating around in this case that there’s no way a quiet “we handled it right” would have doused the raging inferno that the evidence bag started. As someone else pointed out, it’s deeply, truly troubling…

I think when you push past all the posturing along with the rabbit trails and DNA bag drama...the report that her rape kit does not contain Kane DNA points us all back to the fact that more than likely this is a false claim with no merit. A set-up / money grab.
