![]() Yeah, just 'go into your closet and speak to me that way.' Do you think Daybell believed this stuff too? Or was he more of a huckster?ĭuffy: Well you know, the actor who played Chad Daybell, in an interview, he was saying that Lori was one type of character. You know, so his wife won't hear his cell phone ringing, or whatever. Guys come up with a lot of creative ways to cheat on their wives, but I think 'I've opened a portal in your closet' takes the cake on that. Speaking of Daybell's manipulations, I thought his character was kind of funny in this. And I know people don't want to feel sympathy for somebody who does something so horrific, but in that sense, she was the perfect victim going in it, and then was swept away by virtue of it. And then, he became the object, as well as the provocateur, to get her to do those things. So that passion, I can see in the script how it just got transferred. And then, she's put in the presence of this charismatic person. So her passion to, I would assume in the very beginning, to do the right thing, to find the right path, et cetera. ![]() It's just how much other stuff you put in from your personality then. You do want, when you see someone so tortured, you just sort of almost want to ask, "Where does it hurt?"īecause that kind of misguided passion, I'd like to think anyway, has to start with some basic psychological injury that could be addressed. So, I think she just chose to have that and interpret that as fuel for her cause and for her new mission. To greater and lesser degrees, we're all guilty of a prejudicial view. Purl: Maybe just once you're in a particular mindset, you will see everything through that lens. Lori Vallow, in "Doomsday Mom" and in real life, not only takes the Book of Mormon prescriptively, but the explicitly fictional works of Chad Daybell, she takes those literally. It's part of what happened, and yet, it's inexplicable.Īnother thing I noticed about cultists is, they don't seem to believe the maxim: don't believe everything you read. And like Linda said, there's the paradox of it. That was a given, as far as I was concerned. And that's why now, apparently, according to the latest news, that she's deemed unfit to stand trial, which is to me, obvious. So that's how deep-set the illusion is, that it has taken over. And it's a tragedy, and to this day, I saw one interview - this was while we were shooting, actually, I think, or maybe just before where she was in jail - and she actually was saying no, she didn't think she did anything wrong, to this day! And then, if somebody gets in your way, and you're told that that's the reason it's never going to happen, you become a soldier for what you consider the right. We want to go someplace where it doesn't hurt so much. We want the person to resolve our problems. But again, I think that that tendency is inherent in people, just in general. ![]() Not the P-U-R-L, but they drop that little thing of, "But there's obstacles."įor Lori to look at her children as an obstacle towards art, where the brain goes into La La Land, and that's where it becomes dangerous. And then, when you sign onto that and it becomes so entrenched in your being, and then they drop the pearl. You're going to go to Heaven, you're going to do this, you're going to do that. Patrick Duffy: Mm-hmm, and if you're looking legitimately, let's say, for her, at some point in her life, for that rapture, that place to go which a lot of philosophies and religions have that.
