"That wasn't because of money, it was because I had a job for the next two days and wanted to work. So I faked a test. That was over two years ago. Why has there been no issue about it since then?"
About this Quote
The blunt admission - “So I faked a test” - is almost strategically plain. No euphemisms, no elaborate excuse. It’s the kind of candor that can function as a substitute for accountability: if you say it flatly enough, maybe it feels resolved. But the real subtext arrives in the final line: “Why has there been no issue about it since then?” That question isn’t seeking clarity; it’s prosecutorial. It shifts the focus from the act to the system’s delayed reaction, implying that outrage is performative, selective, or opportunistic.
As an actor, Wallice is also negotiating public image in a marketplace that runs on employability. The quote treats scandal like a continuity error: if the story didn’t break immediately, why should it matter now? That’s a very entertainment-industry logic, where consequences often hinge less on conduct than on timing, headlines, and whether the production machine can keep moving.
