Faults

Can I get you anything else?

Well, in that case.

Whenever you're ready.

I have a voucher.

I'll be right back.

That's a voucher from the hotel.

Y-Yes it is, but uh, this

voucher's been used already.

No it hasn't.

See here?

These are my initials.

I'm the manager.

When the voucher's been used,

I mark it with my initials and

Then it's processed.

I was given that by the hotel.

I understand.

What I'm saying is that

you used it last night, okay?

I remember you.

And it looks like you, or

someone, you know, tried to

Erase the writing.

But it's pen ink.

I mean, it's faded,

but it's still there.

I am a guest of the hotel.

I was promised one

complimentary meal a day while

I'm staying here.

That's fine, but I don't

know anything about that.

You're going to have to take it

up with hotel management, okay?

But this is no good, and I

need you to pay for your food.

How much is it?

I don't have that.

$4.75.

How much do you have?

Nothing.

I don't have anything.

Okay, I'm going to have

to ask you to leave.

I'd like to finish my meal.

And I'd like for you to leave.

Plus, you've already

eaten your food.

No, stop that.

Come on.

We're not gonna do that.

No, w-We're not

going to do that.

No, no, no, n...

no, come on.

Come on.

Don't make this hard. Come on.

I want you to know I saw you

take that voucher

Out of the trash.

I wasn't going to say

anything because I didn't want

To embarrass you.

And then this happened.

So I'm saying it.

You look familiar.

I don't know you, so I don't

know how you would know me.

Mr. Roth!

Only a few more hours

until your presentation.

Do you have everything you need?

My sign was on the ground.

I-I'm sorry to hear that.

Housekeeping was wondering

at what point they may expect

Also, why was my dinner only comped

last night? Your things to be...

I was under the impression I

would get one free meal

Per day.

Mm.

What time is checkout

tomorrow morning?

I can be out by then.

I think there's been some

sort of misunderstanding.

Well, according to the

agreed-Upon terms of the

Speaking arrangement.

You are entitled to a night's

stay and one free meal at

Our restaurant.

You used both last night.

Terry is aware of this?

I don't know who terry is.

My manager.

The man who made the deal.

Terry agreed to the terms, yes.

Checkout was supposed

to be at noon.

Can you be out of the

room in the next hour?

Housekeeping!

One second please.

This is the most basic freedom.

I'm talking about free will.

Choice.

Making a choice for yourself

based on what life gives you.

That is free will.

But what if someone

else is in control?

What if they control

your physical body?

Your mind's every thought?

Your emotional well-Being?

Well ladies and

gentlemen, cults do this.

They exploit the fact that

inside every single one of us

Is the capacity

to be captivated.

To be manipulated.

Controlled.

They exploit your weaknesses

and remove you from those who

Care about you.

They create emotional and

physical barriers, distancing

You from everyone and

everything you once knew,

Including yourself.

They mold you.

They conform you.

Even with that voice in the

back of your head screaming

"Get out!"

Most give in.

When another human being makes

decisions for you,

Your free will ceases to be.

You're a follower.

At that point you have

become a follower.

But, you don't have to be.

You may ask "how do I

escape this imprisonment?"

Well, I'm...

well I'm going to talk

with you about that now.

And I encourage you to follow

along at this point in

My book.

For those who do not have a

copy, they can be purchased

From me at this time for $15.

I'm sorry, do you

have a question?

No, I do not.

Okay, good.

No one needs a book?

I-I see a lot of you

do not have a book.

F*** you.

Me?

You.

I'm talking to you.

Okay, I, I don't understand

what you're trying to say.

Who are you?

Who are you?

Who are you?

I...

I am Ansel Roth, one of the

world's foremost authorities

On mind control and

cult organizations.

You're a murderer.

Who are you?

You brainwashed my family into

thinking what they were doing

Was right.

Oh god.

It was.

You and people who claimed to

care about her

Gang-Raped her mind.

She would be dead.

I know she's not alive now,

but she would be dead if she

Stayed with the group.

She wouldn't have died alone.

We tried to help her.

You have to see that.

Please, understand.

It's good to see that you've

ruined your own life just as

Much as you've ruined

the lives of others.

Okay, you are right.

Your sister was broken, but

I had nothing to do with it.

She had the choice of living

with people who ignored her,

Controlled her, abused her, or

dying alone in solidarity with

A suicide cult.

She made her choice, huh?

Ugh!

Oh!

Oh.. Ow!

Piece of sh*t.

I hope you die!

And I hope I broke

one of your ribs.

Ow...

do you need a hand with that?

Uh...

just stack it on

the dolly, please.

This is my wife Evelyn.

I'm Paul.

We attended your seminar.

Did you buy a book?

Oh, we already have one.

Big fans.

I can sign it if you

like for five dollars.

I don't think

that'll be necessary.

Uh, oh, uh, can you

make it out to Claire?

No, I don't sign that book.

I only sign this one.

Put that away please.

Okay, we'll take one. How much?

And you'll want that signed?

Um, yes, right.
