Tom

Tom is acknowledged as a physically strong man, and is capable of asserting himself as a leader. Tom remains a very secretive individual for most of the game, but this didn't stop him from being encouraging of others and from managing to form strong connections. Throughout the game he's shown to be kind to others, showing much empathy to those around him, especially Jake, who's had a few hardships during the first season. He completes the challenges fair and square, opting to punish those who cheat, showing his sense of justice. His physical build and espionage experience do help him on most occasions, although he has fallen for other contestants' traps more than once, causing him much frustration. He's not above making alliances and even, when he feels there is no other way out, betrays some of them for the sake of his mission. Due to his primary occupation, he's seen as a mysterious individual and causes him to lie to others on occasions regarding personal information. However, over the course of the season, he loses his job, causing him to rethink his career course, as he resigns from being a spy whatsoever, finding joy in no longer having to lie to his friends about it and after the first season, he finds a fulfilling job as a policeman. Due to his compassion and lack of social interactions and connections being a spy, Tom found it hard to open up to people, especially about his problems. That attitude changed after meeting and developing a relationship with Jake, finally bonding with someone. During All-Stars, despite keeping his sweet and kind demeanor, he's also shown to be rather hypocritical at times. In the beginning of the season, after ghosting Jake and Miriam for 2 years he became much more aggressive towards them, especially Jake, which is unlike what he have been shown during the first season, especially since he, Jake and Miriam separated on friendly terms. Despite that, as of the seventh episode he's shown to have warmed up towards Jake, meaning it is possible that Tom finally realized Jake really has changed for the better. He also confirms to him that he has a boyfriend, which he has been dating for months prior to the season. However, he confirms to Aiden in the ninth episode that this was all a lie as he needed an easy out from his conversation with Jake. He explains to him that Jake was the first person that he felt safe enough to show his face after his "incident", and the main reason he didn't talk to Jake in this two-year gap is because he didn't want to felt hurt again by his past, and that he wanted to make sure he was ready to face another discussion with him, but he thinks he won't be able to do so again, and confirms that not a day goes by that he doesn't think what they could've been if he talked to him earlier. This confirms that Tom had developed severe trust issues after his debut season and may have found difficult to trust Jake again, at least until a certain point. Eventually, with the help of his newfound friendships, along with an old one, Tom finally manages to gain the courage he needed, and reconciles with Jake after he is eliminated in Hungry like the Wolf, officially promising to clear the air between them after the game is over, for good this time.
