The reason he doesn't remember
anything that happened

481
00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:46,716
this morning is because he
experienced a severe brain wave

482
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,359
disruption in his frontal lobe.

483
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,636
That's the feedback
that we all heard.

484
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,474
So, that's why he snapped on us

like it was
<i>Jaws: The Revenge?</i>

486

A frontal lobe that
compromised would of course

487
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,120
result in lack of control
over emotions and judgment.

488
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,477
So you think maybe the
crown might have done this?

489
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,029
No, that's the thing.
The crown is not the problem.

the telepathic crown
was working the whole time?
