TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

"Enturbulated" is a Scientology term that the crew are using humorously.

Xenu is never mentioned.

Off-camera, Paz took the Crew to a séance trying to contact Janis Joplin, who died in the same Motel. [Special Feature, possibly]

Broadcast live to cinemas simultaneously with a screening at London's South Bank Centre, with a Q&A afterwards in which Louis Theroux, among other things, mentioned L Ron Hubbard's fondness for Occultist Aleister Crowley.

Practising Scientology freelance, without the aggressive profit motive, is known as "Freezoning" and is another form of "Squirreling" in addition to the reenactments shown here.

Popular Dialogues

"Louis Theroux: [Q&A] Marty Rathburn called me "a rimless zero". I suppose that's even less than zero because without the rim it's just the nothingness in the middle. Adam Buxton: It sounds vaguely obscene, doesn't it? "Look at my rimless zero!" Ahem!"

"Louis Theroux: [Pitch routine] But I've heard it's just brainwashing. Actor-Scientologist: It is, it's mind-numbing! Louis Theroux: No, I was doing the thing. Actor-Scientologist: Come on! Do I look brainwashed to you?"
