Thriller launches his first strike against the Syndicate.

He infiltrates one of their data hubs, an underground computer vault storing blackmail, Secrets, and names.

If they want war, I'll give them something loud.

Not pistols, not knives, bombs.

Explosions ripple through the vault.

The Syndicate loses millions in data.

For the first time, they fear Thriller.

For the first time, he has the upper hand. Briefly.

All kinds of things. He won't tell us the truth about his life because he knows that we can't handle the truth. And so he will lie to us about his activities and his life because it preserves the peace for him, he thinks. But we know that lies don't build a relationship.

They create doubt, suspicion, and fear.

And then we exhibit those behavior traits.

And fear in the female is always translated as hostility.
