The 100 Silents in Area 52 had been captured and imprisoned there (well, had pretended to, because it was actually their plan all along). I don't remember it being said that the four Silents encountered by Clara were getting her to confess, so maybe they were just walking around the place. I don't see what's bothering you.

So I get that the idea of the Silents being confessional priests is entertaining on some level, but am I the only one who thinks their ability is the exact opposite of what it should be in that case? Usually the idea of confession in a church is to seek forgiveness, and accept your mistakes. In which case it would be ideal if the priests then forgot what you confessed. The way the Silents operate, all they do is convince you to tell them all of your secrets, and then forget that you told them. That's incredibly shady, and honestly it's kind of diabolical. On top of that, it would still backfire even when you walk away. We were shown that they can subliminally coerce you to do things even after you've looked away, and since all they seem to do now is walk around saying "confess", you'd be spilling your guts to anyone else around every single time you looked away from them. --[[User:Saghan|Saghan]] [[User talk:Saghan|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 18:38, December 28, 2013 (UTC) | |||
