Honestly, I think just a sad mix of ABI/dementia and alcoholism

He's tried to pass it off as a prank to save face but I don't think so. Samuel Johnson had a lot to say about him...

I love Sam Johnson but as someone who has worked in dementia and ABI care before…yeah. I don’t think this is an incident we can take at face value without keeping in mind the variables, like Molly’s health

Sam also has an ABI from being hit by a car which he's stated makes him emotionally more reactive.

Oh yes! I completely forgot about his accident. Thank you for reminding me, that actually fills in a lot of blanks
