If this is Spielberg, which I suspect, kudos to him for becoming big and staying big in H-Town without having to deal with the CO$.

The story of Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise and where it all went wrong.
Chapter 2: the friendly doctor….
In this chapter we will tell the story of how an unpleasant event on the doorstep of a doctor’s office led to the beginning of the ending of the friendship of Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise.
This second chapter starts in the home of Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw where Kate Capshaw receives a phone call early in the morning. When Steven Spielberg is in consultation with one of his moviemaking business partners, Kate Capshaw enters, clearly infuriated. She informs Steven Spielberg she has just learned about a large group of followers of the church of Spy-in-tology showing up at the front door of a doctor’s office, making a very ugly scene. This doctor happens to be the doctor who helped out a relative of Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw not so long ago…
Kate Capshaw asks Steven Spielberg pointedly is he thinks this is a coincidence? They both know a person attached to this church of Scientology and the issues they have with certain aspects of medical treatment. Did Steven Spielberg happen to talk to with this person about the doctor?
Steven Spielberg appears to be taken aback and feverishly starts searching his memory in attempt to recall a conversation of such nature. He’s about the state the subject never came up when he does remember a conversation; not with Tom Cruise, but he was nearby enough to have overheard, what was said.
The still livid Kate Capshaw chastises Steven Spielberg who in his defence replies he cannot believe Tom Cruise had anything to do with this. Kate Capshaw asks him to come up with another explanation then and Steven Spielberg has to admit he can’t.
Kate Capshaw then tells Steven Spielberg this is the last straw. She tells Steven Spielberg she wants him to cut all ties with Tom Cruise. The desperate Steven Spielberg tells Kate Capshaw it’s not just up to him and that there are more parties involved. He asks Kate Capshaw to remember he is in the final stage of promoting his latest movie and that ther is a lot of money and people investing this money involved. What is he supposed to say to them?
Kate Capshaw then tells him fine, and for Steven Spielberg to do whatever he has to do, just as long as he keeps Tom Cruise very far away from her and their family, and that he is not the set another foot in their home.
The minute the temperamental Kate Capshaw leaves, Steven Spielberg sinks back into his chair looking at his moviemaking business partner who has listened in silence mounting disbelieve at the revelations. Showing signs of fatigue, Steven Spielberg states; “Great. This is just, great. I’m going to kill this f*****g idiot!”
The first chance Steven Spielberg has to confront Tom Cruise in person, is on their next promotional tour. The minute Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise meet it is clear to all present something is very wrong. Even Ms. Junior moviestar tell Mrs assistant moviemaker, Steven Spielberg seems extremely crossed with Tom Cruise and wonders what is going on.
Before departure, Steven Spielberg tells Tom Cruise they need to have a word in private. In this conversation Steven Spielberg tells Tom Cruise about the strangely coincidental evnts at the doctor’s office and wonders if Tom Cruise has an explanation for it?
Tom Cruise appears shocked and tries to convince Steven Spielberg had had nothing to do with what took place.
Steven Spielberg says that while he might be willing to give Tom Cruise the benefit of the doubt, Kate Capshaw seems to be feeling somewhat different about this. Steven Spielberg suggests he will talk to her and explain, but Steven Spielberg answers that might not be one of his best ideas. Adding that the way Kate Capshaw is feeling right now, chances are Steven Spielberg will have to bail her out of jail for assault the very least, should Steven Spielberg show his face.
He then tell Steven Spielberg that for all their sakes it’s probably better Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise keep their relationship on a professional level. At least for now, until Steven Spielberg has had the chance to calm Kate Capshaw down. Somewhat. Steven Spielberg is not happy with this, but reluctantly agrees.
Despite the fact Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise put on their professional faces for the rest of the promotion tour , many pick up on the tensions, and several point out how distracted and out of place Steven Spielberg frequently appears to be. Even more revealing is how little he seems to be doing to help Steven Spielberg out, whenever he gets himself into trouble by again promoting the words of his friends of the church of Scientology.
It’s clear to many that Steven Spielberg is distancing himself form Steven Spielberg more and more and has an increasingly hard time to hid his irritation and frustration.
And things will only get worse from here….
The story of Steven Spielberg and mo moviestar and where it al went wrong
Chapter 3: surprises
We take a little jump in time. Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise’s movie has been released and in theatres worldwide. As agreed, Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg have scaled their friendship down to business level only for the time being and each have gone their separate ways. But even though Tom Cruise has agreed to this he is not happy with the current situation. Then an opportunity presents itself, an opportunity Tom Cruise thinks will make things better between him and Steven Spielberg.
Steven Spielberg has to be given yet another award at a film festival. The people organizing this festival have picked up on stories of trouble between Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg but decide not to make too much of it. They decide to surprise Steven Spielberg and don’t tell the people in his staff who will be handing Steven Spielberg the award. It is supposed to be a surprise after all…
Steven Spielberg is onstage to receive his award and, on stage steps….Tom Cruise! While the audience erupts in cheers and applause Steven Spielberg puts a smile on his face, but is not able to completely mask his suspire. A surprise that according to close observers even comes close to shock. In the audience, people close to Kate Capshaw notice she freezes. They also notice the quick looks exchanged between Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw and the look on his face that comes close to an apology. Kate Capshaw does not respond other than with a cold star at Steven Spielberg.
Behind the scenes one of Steven Spielberg’s aides moans Steven Spielberg is going to kill him, while one of the organizers of the event stares at him in surprise.
We have a little peek behind the scenes, where Steven Spielberg erupts and lashes out at one of his aides. How could this happen? Did he not make it very clear he wanted Tom Cruise to be kept away from him? While the hapless aide tries to explain he had no prior knowledge of Tom Cruise’s presence at the event, the same Tom Cruise comes walking up to them and starts apologizing. It was not his intention to upset Steven Spielberg.
Enter Kate Capshaw. She shoots Steven Spielberg a foul look, thanks him for letting her in on the surprise, then tells him to enjoy himself and that she is leaving. The startled Tom Cruise says he’s to one to blame, and that Steven Spielberg has no idea Tom Cruise was going to be here.
When Kate Capshaw starts walking away, Tom Cruise wants to walk after her but finds his path blocked by Steven Spielberg telling him this is not a good idea. He then asks Tom Cruise to leave and disappears into another room.
A mutual friend runs after Kate Capshaw to make her reconsider.
When it clear to Steven Spielberg, Kate Capshaw really seems to be leaving it does little to improve his mood. He starts uttering some curses addressed at Steven Spielberg (we shall not repeat here) then makes it clear he’s leaving as well.
Now, his stunned moviemaking business partner tells him he cannot do this. People have no idea what’s going on and will not understand. But Steven Spielberg spats to just watch him and that he is in no mood to celebrate, then he starts walking off as well.
The moviemaking business partner turns to Steven Spielberg’s aide and urges him to stop Steven Spielberg. Then the moviemaking business partner turns his attention to Tom Cruise and says that he does not understand how he managed to do it but that Tom Cruise just made matters even worse. He then urges Tom Cruise to give it time and to stop pushing matters.
The panting mutual friend returns. The moviemaking business partner asks if Kate Capshaw really left. The mutual friend replies no, she managed to make Kate Capshaw see her reaction was unreasonable and she will be back in a minute. The relieved moviemaking business partner then asks is she can ask Kate Capshaw to talk to Steven Spielberg and calm him down, because he seems ready to rip someone’s head of.
Kate Capshaw returns, Tom Cruise again starts walking over to her and again tells her it’s all his fault and to blame him for what happened. Kate Capshaw does not respond. Tom Cruise then says it’s time they talked. But Kate Capshaw lets him know there is nothing she has to say to Tom Cruise he wants to hear and that this is not the time or place.
Tom Cruise then tells her to make the time because they really need to talk. He adds it’s becoming more and more clear to him it’s mrs moviestar causing the trouble and he wants it to stop.
Now, the moviemaking business partner intervenes. He tells Tom Cruise it’s obvious Kate Capshaw does not want to talk him and that if Tom Cruise really wants to help, he should just leave.
Tom Cruise leaves. Kate Capshaw talks to Steven Spielberg and Steven Spielberg returns to the festivities.

We make another little jump in time. The eventful film festival is long forgotten, there just one small matter left that needs to be dealt with; the invitation Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw received to attend the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
Until it has been an unspoken agreement Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw will not attend this wedding, no matter how much upheaval this will stir in the media. But then, something unexpected happens…
The movie company aligned to Steven Spielberg end it’s contract with Tom Cruise and this has Kate Capshaw worried.
Kate Capshaw now tells Steven Spielberg she has changed her mind and that they should attend the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
The surprised Steven Spielberg tells Kate Capshaw he knows how deeply betrayed she feels by Tom Cruise’s actions and that he is not going to ask her to do something that will make her feel uncomfortable.
Then Kate Capshaw points out that the trouble between Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise have found its way to the newspapers and the internet. Now that the movie company aligned to Steven Spielberg has terminated it’s contract with Tom Cruise, Kate Capshaw is certain many people will point the blaming finger for this at Steven Spielberg. Especially when Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw are a no show and Tom Cruises wedding to Katie Holmes, and Kate Capshaw does not want to be responsible for that. . Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw decide to attend the wedding after all.
There is some surprise in the media and with onlookers when mr and Kate Capshaw arrive at the wedding of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Their opinion now is that rumours of trouble between Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise in the media are bogus after all.
What they don’t know is that Kate Capshaw already told Steven Spielberg she will sneak off first opportunity she gets. When she starts doing so Steven Spielberg wants to go with her, but Kate Capshaw warns him it will attract unnecessary attention should they leave together so soon.
Half an hour later, Kate Capshaw is gone, while Steven Spielberg stays behind. An hour later Steven Spielberg stars leaving, but – of course! – runs into Tom Cruises who wonders why Steven Spielberg is leaving so soon.
Steven Spielberg tells him Kate Capshaw isn’t feeling to well and that he does not want to leave her alone too long. Steven Spielberg again congratulates Tom Cruise and then leaves.
Tom Cruise is not pleased with the rapid departure of Steven Spielberg and Kate Capshaw and tells his present friends of the church of Scientology someone is hell bend on ruining his friendship with Steven Spielberg. He adds he is determined to confront this person and put a stop to it
