I used to think that Parr was just a malicious liar, but now I see that
he imagines he possesses the power to see into men's minds and complete
their thoughts.
If Schiller writes something stupid, Parr can pry a less foolish
thought out of his head. Parr used the same ability to complete Sam
Sloan's thought when he divined that Sam was not really claiming he had
sex with adolescent prostitutes, he was just claiming that he took
their pictures through an open doorway. He also used this ability to
divine plot elements that the director had forgotten to include in
"Guess Who's Coming to Dinner."
Parr can also read and complete the thoughts of his opponents so that
he can find the malignant evil intent behind anyone's otherwise
legitimate criticism of one of his idols.
Much as I can appreciate the delight that Parr finds in his wondrous
gift, I must confess that I am skeptical of its existence. That is why
I decline to address points in which Parr addresses what he believes a
person's true thoughts to be rather than what the person has actually
written.
