You know you've reached peak stupid when even Patty and Mstoxictea don't buy your crap.
Tina is Sherlockjohnblog, formerly Tinchensblog. For some fucking reason, she's convinced herself that it can't possibly be Ben because he looked so miserable during Eric promo (where he mentioned his family numerous times).
As for Patty, I seriously doubt Ben is avoiding Sophie. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she and the kids regularly come to visit him on location. Or that he goes back to London as soon as he can. Unlike Patty's husband, Ben actually wants to spend time with his wife.
EDIT: the stupid didn't end there for Tina.
There was no puncture marks on Ben's hand. I know what those would look like, I still have the scars from the IV I got last month. I know the sQeptics are something else, but this is ridiculous. Tina looks like she's desperate for Ben to die or something.
