   Summary

   For a while now, Tom's fanbase has started to slow down the momentum. Being hot only got someone so far. The whole sex, drugs, and partying lifestyle of a famous actor was going stale. At least, that's what Gail says. Tom didn't see the big deal. He thought if he flashed some more abs, it'll be fine. Gail disagreed. And just like everything else Gail says, her word was law.

   She just wanted the best for him, whatever that meant. So, it was high time Tom got a rebrand. God, he needed a drink. Was he still allowed to drink? Fuck it.
