Q - Why didn't the Tall Man kill Siobhan?
PA - Because he is a gentleman demon.
Q - Why didn't the Tall Man get the idol when he had the chance?
PA - We can't say he didn't need it anymore, so let's say he didn't see it.

But that's not the point. Cabadath used to kill everyone he could in his torture altars, right? He saw Trilby dead and he killed Lenkman. Only Siobhan was spared. Why? Why not to kill her as a bonus? Because he is a gentleman, of course!
Allright, someone will say that the Tall Man killed women before, but I didn't see that. In the Special Edition, perhaps, I dont know. Maybe they were ugly women

Something else I wondered about- when Trilby was arrested, I got the impression he joined the Special Talent Project because the only alternative was jail. How did the police prove he was Trilby? If they didn't have anything to link him to his past robberies (even a witness would probably only have seen the hat and velvet mask, so it could have been anyone underneath that), he would have got at most a couple of years for the robbery they caught him in the middle of. And can you be prosecuted under a name that is known to be false?

And Lenkmann said he could provide the Mind from being "highly trained" or something. Is this perhaps the mind driven to insanity by the cult, thus being in pain?
Why would the Tall Man need the idol? Firstly, it needs to remain in the Realm of Technology for the prophecy to take place; and it contains part of his and DeFoe's soul, so pissing about with it isn't advisable.

In 5DAS, he:
Robs a house where a tragedy has occured
Insults Simone
Mocks AJ's death
Abandons his friends, letting them think he perished in a fire.
In TN, he:
Seeks to put an end to tragedy, regardless of risk or difficulty
Tries to protect Siobhan
Feels bad over Abed's death (and Phillip's)
Seeks out Simone for her sake, not his
The change from a conceited, self absorbed jerk to a conscientous man who would think of another even while in severe pain makes TN a far superior game. One starts to care whether the MC lives or dies. It certainly doesn't hurt that the drawings of Trilby scared or hurt are far better.
Of course, the humorous remarks are wonderful, too.
Open the safe while in normal hotel
Ask Abed about "Tall Man"
