Continuing on Hammer, Tim argues his radical honesty about his fetishes destroyed his career and speculates on the 'magic lamp' quote where Hammer says he wouldn't undo the scandal.
- Honesty about unconventional desires ruined this person's life, and now he'll never be honest again about anything.
- Tim explains that intrusive thoughts about attractions don't disappear—therapy might help, but the kinks remain.
- Armie Hammer on the magic lamp wish: offered a genie to undo the last two years, he says he wouldn't take it.
- Tim notes Hammer claims he's now grateful for everything, which sounds like a publicist-arranged comeback narrative.
- This public confession of lessons learned is what a comeback looks like—otherwise he'd just quietly learn in private.
