Please let me be wrong


I really hope this man does not end up telling us that his brother is dead. His eyes keep tearing up, so I'm not sure what's coming up.

Bones and all. He ate the whole thing, bones and all.

I've sensed that since he started speaking.

Well in the next scenes that was featured from the last episode, it showed him crying and saying that his twin brother died in an accident. So I already knew that would be the outcome  Very sad.

I had missed that because I didn't watch last week's episode until after this one, so I was also one who remained unaware. I did think the worst because the tv guide did say: "Twin brothers and auditing prodigies find their paths diverging when one gets dismissed from the program, leading to painful tragedy."

Based on that info, I worried suicide. Him dying in a car crash was still so sad because he had lost his brother and mother years before. I really thought his brother would leave this cult after attending the funeral, but he stayed. Mom stayed. Thankfully, they got out. That whole story was not just tragic, but their leaving has resulted in such crazy things:,wife's mom, who is still in the cult, hides from her grandchildren when in her house across the street; neighbor disconnected from them and their three kids but not their dog! Just. Wow. Wow to the whole story.

I could tell he was dead by the way the brother spoke but I feared the brother commuted suicide due to losing his family.

I thought it was going to be suicide too. I'm really glad it wasn't.

I was crying almost as hard as he was. omg. This is SO SAD. So evil of scientology. evil.

reply

It was very sad, I agree. That dude was crying like an 8 year old girl. It was horrible to listen to him cry like that, bc it was so extreme and sounded horrible. You could tell it affected him so much. I was waiting to hear the cause bc they always referred to him in the past tense and used old photos, but you also didn't know if he possible had rejoined and that wasn't why. I was expecting the church had done something instead of a regular car crash the way they built it up. I felt for the family.

reply

Heartbreaking to watch. You can feel and see his pain.

reply

I felt the same way, but the more he went on the more obvious it became that he was.
I was just relieved (well, not actually "relieved" but it's the closest word I can think of. There's nothing good about what happened to him) he didn't kill himself because of the church.

But the way they acted when he said he wanted to go the funeral was awful. He should have punched that jackass right in the mouth and left the church right then.

reply

Reading these responses has me all teary again. Aaron's reaction is so sad, can you imagine his mom? omg, the guilt, the despair--she brought her kids into this cult & as a result has lost one forever!


Mike Rinder even has said that his greatest regret is having raised his daughter there & never being able to see her again.

As a parent, to lose your baby like that! I can't even...

reply

Just imagine a brothers relationship, not just brothers but twins.

Begin so brainwashed that you make a report on him, some *beep* says that you have to cut ties with him and you agree, you even consider him an enemy, that he's the bad person you just forget about him.

The day comes when you realize that your whole life was a lie, that you were in a cult and you lost your brother to stay loyal to a band of psychos.

But now your brother is dead, how do you ask him for forgiveness? You just wish you could go back in time but you can't.

There's nothing you can do, he's no longer here. It's just too painful.
