Emmerdale - Current Episode Discussion - III

[Perdita]

I think the way this is being written now seems to be that Tom actually believes his own lies, that he was done nothing wrong. Not sure if that is how we are meant to see it.

I think coercive controllers know deep down that they are doing wrong but will always find justification for doing so.. because their victims have made them do that... if they had not reacted the way they did, there would not be any need for them to shout, hit etc...
