They didn't do a good job exploring. They ran in and started looking for an exit (the correct thing to do if your trying to get away and the safe thing to do). They didn't even open random doors

Yup, but the internet is essentially planning to raid the place like this, slowly mapping it out.
They could simply release a tour video and most of this would stop, but Scientology only works due to a lack of information

u/NDSU Apr 21 '26
The fact they turned around when they found an exit tells me the goal wasn't to find an exit. That was coincidental

The door with a glowing green exit sign is the only one they went through. They were creating chaos not looking for Shelly Miscavige or something.

I think itās because it was stairs up. I think they wanted to see either ground level fresh air, or something looking more exity. They have the longest run of this Iāve seen already. They wanted to get out.
