It seems that, with Gerrard, they all adopt a strategy of "Keep your head down and survive."

Tommy obviously was friends with Chim by the time Hen arrived.

Tommy welcomed her with an open smile and curiosity before Gerrard shut it all down and enforced a line (that Chimney followed as well within the firehouse). When Hen is giving her speech, Chim and Tommy exchange looks, with Chim giving a minute nod.

The next time, we see her in the firehouse, she finds out that Gerrard got the boot, because several people reported him, and the narrative makes it clear, that those several people were Chim and Tommy (and maybe Sal, though Sal was very much Gerrard's good boy) Tommy was never racist to Hen, he made one snide comment about her being bitchy when Chim says she has "that east coast vibe". (a comment people claim comes from Tommy and is somehow racist?)

Chim actually complains later about her being standoffish later, as well. (Or "that's revenge for you making it so hard to be friends with you.) Even with Chim, yes, Tommy was extremely closed off, but, as Eli explains "You don't name the puppy before you're sure it's gonna survive." You're not making friends before you can be sure they stick around. And once Tommy was sure, he welcomed Chim with open arms.

And now, Gerrard has returned. And wonder of wonders... Chim keeps his head down and doesn't speak up. Hen keeps her head down and doesn't speak up. Eddie keeps his head down and doesn't speak up, when Gerrard is raining his abuse on people.

Does that mean they're all homophobic, racist, mysoginist? Or do they maybe just try to weather this storm, hoping it will pass soon without their careers in the gutter?

But they're POC, people will say. Well, yes. And Tommy is gay. He is as much a welcome target to Gerrard's hate as them, his only advantage is that he can live a complete lie and hide it, inventing a "girlfriend".

We've seen how well Gerrard took those news at the end of S7, when he took the first opportunity - completely unprovoked - to make a homophobic remark.

None of the accusations against Tommy hold up on closer scrutiny. Except for him being closed of and a bit of a dick to people until he gets to know them.

People just, for some weird and unsensical reason, need an excuse to hate Tommy to justifiy their ship, as if there can only be one ship.

This ain't Highlander.

I think that stands alone. 'm not tearing up. You are.

Wallowing in luxury: This can become a problem

The Royal Palace has often been called a public gathering point, but trooping up dressed in exclusive and expensive designer brands signals something completely opposite, believes Ekstra Bladet's royal commentator, Kim Bach, who estimates that the expensive habits could become a problem for the Royal Palace.

The expensive shoes, shirts, and jewellery were found when Crown Prince Christian put on his student cap. However, exclusive habits can become a problem for the royal family, often associated with folkliness, according to Ekstra Bladet's royal commentator, Kim Bach.

- When you want to signal [that you're one of the people] but are revealed that you are not, then that is a problem. If anyone was in doubt as to whether the royal family belonged to the upper class, then this helps to remove the doubt, believes Kim Bach, who continues:

- At first glance, the average viewer will think that [the Royal Family] look nice and beautiful, but with the fact that today you have social media where you can find information about what their clothes cost, it becomes wider [knowledge] in the population and, therefore, tampers with the myth that the royals are popular.

Shirt for DKK 11,600

On Monday, Crown Prince Christian graduated from Ordrup Gymnasium in a shirt from Prada for DKK 11,600, an expensive Rolex watch, and beige sneakers from Lanvin for approximately DKK 4,100. His siblings were also dressed in exclusive brands.

For example, 13-year-old Prince Vincent wore a pair of sneakers from Prada for 7,000 DKK, and 17-year-old Princess Isabella wore a 'P' necklace with a diamond from Dulong for 16,900 DKK. She also had a bracelet from Hermès for 5,200 DKK and sandals from the same brand for 4,850 DKK. The sandals are probably Queen Mary's, as she has worn these several times. Princess Josephine, aged 13, wore a bracelet from Dior for DKK 2,600 and two from Valentino for DKK 1,940 each.

What exactly is Albert's plan ? Why is there a picture of him and Monsieur M together ? Why does Albert seem to dislike M in it ? How are TWDAK and VTSOM lores linked ? What is the deep, thematic significance behind Albert's views on Vincent ? What exactly are the dream eaters ? Buckle up, this will be a multi - part analysis and we'll have to go in a sequence of steps.

Ok, recap of the basics first. Albert's dream therapy ability is basically some neuroscience - based technology that allows him to hijack people's brains for a while - that is how he is able to communicate with total strangers and influence his office environment, affect a monstrous appearance, give jumpscares and control his victims' fates in their dreams. It explains the bizarre, nightmarish feel of TWDAK.

Then what do the dream eaters do ? How are they made ? Let's go step - by - step into my explanation :

Albert very deliberately administers nightmares to his dream therapy candidates to select an 'army' for his grand plan to revive G2 district. Those who succumb to fear in the nightmare and blindly obey all his instructions perfectly as self - preservation essentially give up control of their fate. They let him decide their fate in their dream.

Now, dreams reflect a person's personality too - they are our memories and neural connections rehashed and mix - and - matched. Albert taps into a person's psychological wiring and instincts through the therapy.

Which means that the 'patients' who obey him out of pure fear are likely to be paranoid and passive when faced with unfamiliar dangers. Therefore, he can easily manipulate and control them using their fear. This could explain the dream eaters' lifeless, gloomy appearance and perpetual silence - it's like they're frozen in a constant state of fear. It's why they're perfect soldiers for his army- they won't rebel, and they are willing to 'eat' victims and follow orders to save their own selves.

You can't control a nightmare. Like any dream, it is formed by your random memories and instincts, random brain connections firing and combining. It's a situation where you're helpless to your psyche, to your subconscious. In Albert's therapy, it's a situation where you're helpless to HIM. How you react depends on your long - honed psyche, who you are deep down.

Think about your nightmares. To give my own example, I've had nightmares about being eaten alive by cannibals, being bombed, being unloved and alone, serial killers, my family and myself becoming evil and harming one another, etc. In some I remember fighting back. In others I was powerless and gave up.

Those like Taylor, who fight back despite being stuck in a horrifying situation they can't understand, show that they have a strong, hopeful outlook somewhere. They use logic as best as they can to do whatever they can. That's why they'll contribute to a G2 that has many pioneering, exceptional citizens.

Why do the dream eaters 'eat' victims ? Why are they 'hungry' ? Why do they need to 'eat' at all ? What happens to a victim who gets 'eaten' ? This is very meta - I think, since in the game everyone you get eaten Taylor urges you to try again and the game loops back, those who get 'eaten' get stuck in the nightmare. They're stuck until they either obey and become Albert's army members, or rebel and get spared. The purpose of dream eaters is to ensure the candidate can't escape till they prove their worth either way. That is Albert's plan for G2 - use the dream eaters to test people's worth, make them either useful to him as testers for other candidates, or leave the 'exceptional' ones be to hopefully improve G2.

What else do the dream eaters do besides acting as a test for candidates' worth ? Is it possible that Albert can do some Inception - style shit, influencing powerful people's decisions by implanting ideas into their psyche ? Is that how he plans to change G2 ?

Remember VTSOM ? Monsieur M's plan is to replace the 'inferior' human species with the much faster, smarter, stronger, modifiable cyborgs. That's his idea of improving life forms and the world. Whereas Albert's idea of improving G2 district is NOT by rejecting humanity but by finding and embracing its exceptional side. He taps into people's subconscious to find the brave, the fearless, those who can retain sense and logic under extreme stress. And that's why Albert dislikes M. M rejects humans totally, deriding them at many points in VTSOM. But Albert sees that humans can be pretty awesome, or atleast useful.

Now, the link between Albert and Vincent. Albert says that Vincent had great potential, but he saw him let it go to waste. Keep in mind the points above, and now remember - Vincent used to be someone who would rebel against society, accept loneliness because he wouldn't compromise on his principles and beliefs. He used to be brave. But then, he grew tired of loneliness. Which is all well and understandable to Albert, except that then Vincent, in his desire to belong and to be accepted at Myers, became a total slave to them. He committed atrocities he didn't want to commit, abandoned his principles and vision for change, because he was deathly scared of ending up alone and unsupported. He could've changed things, he had the aptitude and the attitude, but then he became just another brick in the wall of corporate selfishness. Another pawn for everything wrong with society. That's what Albert means when he says that Vincent wasted his potential. He gave into fear and lost himself. He had not a flight, not a fight, but a 'freeze' reaction to the threat of ostracision - blindly obey the very shady Monsieur M, hoping M would spare him because he licked his boots.
