10. My point: (1) he's a manipulative fellow and (2) he's been sent away

If he thought his neighbors would believe the tea leaves told him to do it, he would have read messages from tea leaves to them; if he thought his neighbors would believe he had to do this because of the warranty on his refrigerator, he would have carefully explained some crazy-ass interpretation of the warranty on his refrigerator to them all

He picked an easily manipulated woman as his wife because he likes to manipulate people, so she went along with his bull

It seems the larger society decided not to go along with his bull and sent him away

If he thinks his cellmates will believe the cockroaches are telling him what to do, he'll be passing along messages from the cockroaches to them all
