Before the vomit camera shot turned up, I was one of the ones who was incorrectly saying that the parents probably told him to pretend to be sick. OMG the child was actually sick and really threw up; and both parents sat there and kept yapping! (-- that is, before Diane Sawyer prompted Mom to go with the child.)
Oh man,
that is so much worse than what I thought was going on with the pretend-to-be-sick-if-they-ask-a-hard-question thing. Poor kid. I hope he didn't get reamed for spilling the beans last night on LKL.
Dad looked liike he pooped a brick when the kid said that. I'm still baffled by that long-winded totally random "when-we-go-to-grocery-and-he-wants-to-buy-candy-but-I-tell-him-no-and-he's-slow" story, that BTW didn't have diddley squat to do with the price of rice in China.
Jus sayin
