        It’s from this xkcd but it’s also my headcanon. Tommy is a weird dude that no one really knows his past fully, who has a substantial amount of money he got from selling denim jeans or something apparently.

    I don’t know why this makes me a little sad. The idea of someone just hijacking a plane, stealing a buttload of money, and parachuting into the sunset and getting away with it tickles my sense of whimsy. With the mystery solved, and it just being some dude, that whimsy is gone. Can’t they just write it off and say he won this one?

      Personally Id like the FBI to say “Fuck it, you got away with it. Anyone coming forward with verifiable proof they knew D.B or can prove they know who he was will be immune from prosecution”

    During the final season of Mad Men, fanbase speculation zeroed in on “Don Draper will end up being DB Cooper”.

    The same fanbase went into speculative overdrive when Don’s wife Megan wore the same red star t-shirt made iconic by Sharon Tate, then moved not only to Los Angeles, but to Laurel Canyon itself.
