--- Quote from: JohnA on 08 Dec 2017, 13:41 ---The whole non-binary thing is tiresome in the extreme. Tilly disclosed it to Marten because she knew about Claire from the dossier and that it would touch a chord with Marten. The same way Tilly thought she was buying trousers and a bag in Hanner's favourite colours. It was a deliberate attempt to curry favour and get under her skin. Would you trust someone like that?
She is as manipulative as hell.

Question - Why would Tilly have a section dedicated to Hanner's friend's relationships?
Question the second - How on earth would anyone know that Claire was Trans? The only ones who know (if I recall correctly) are her mother, Clinton, Marten and Emily. Its not been something Claire has been particularly shouting from the rooftops about.
Question part three - If we've already established that some of the information that Tilly has been working from has in fact been incorrect, then why would the information about the others be so accurate?
Look, don't get me wrong, i'm not a fan of Tilly, personally I believe that the story has gone on about a week too long with a character that was an originally interesting gambit, that kind of fell flat. But let's not impose traits on a character that haven't been outright proven yet. Tilly isn't some manipulative evil genius, they're a kid working from a cheat sheet that has the wrong answers on them.

It appears from postconsumerbrands.com that they're still around. I always imagined Saki's Filboid Studge as being something like Grape Nuts.

Dude, we're talkin' about Beatrice the Amoral here. She probably has copies of the original birth certificates for all Hannelore's friends. (Come to think of it, the background check for a high level security clearance here in the real world could actually drill down that far.)

We're also talkin' about the dossier that was completely wrong and out of date.
This line of thinking is foolishness pulled directly from JohnA's ass. It's nonsense.
Regarding the concert analogy: yeah, I changed it to an analogy that's more accurate to the situation being discussed, 'cause the original analogy didn't match the topic.

Manipulation and control of Hannelore. Remember: the dossier was probably prepared at Beatrice's instructions. If she knows everything about her daughter's friends, she knows how to manipulate and, if necessary, coerce them into helping drive Hannelore down the path she wants from her.

--- Quote from: Perfectly Reasonable on 08 Dec 2017, 17:23 ---Tilly, do something interesting instead of wearing Hannelore to a frazzle. Winslow, you're not helping.
--- End quote ---
How can Hannelore ever expect to run her mother’s company if she can’t even handle an over eager subordinate? In this capacity I think Tilly will compel her to overcome a lot of her remaining psychological obstacles.
