Mira:


  Here is something that doesn't make sense.  I find it hard to believe that Eb doesn't know that
Margaret had a child with Raith,  especially in the light that supposedly he had dinner with them once a year or so.  If he does know, then he must also know that Thomas is his grandson.. Or he and Margaret were estranged for a number of years after she got together with Raith.. Or he is in complete denial that he has a vamp for a grandson... Or he is either really stupid not to have figured it out [unlikely,] or hiding something from both Harry and Thomas for his own reasons.

:)
Maybe Eb heard there's a plot going on in WCV area and figures this is the last straw?
I've been thinking that (click to show/hide)Thomas may have gotten Venatori orders that someone big-possibly Evanna-was nemfected and that he had to take her/them out. Lara doesn't know this b/c she's too busy with the PT do it and Thomas is considered more disposable. If he gets these orders a little bit before the PT, then maybe that could be the reason that he seems so reluctant to be father; he's already resigned to the fact that he'll die.Maybe Eb got wind of this somehow? If so, it'd probably be through BC chatter. He's got to have someone on the inside and there's gotta be a ton of misinformation going on. I mean Eb may have a whole lot of negative emotion reasons for trying to take Thomas out, but he almost certainly knows that he's his grandson, so he'd need some kind of 'logical' justification that he can call up so he can give himself a reason to attack.
@Mira: I think it's denial. It's just that he's aware that and to compensate for that, he acts really aggressive/double down.

Walter the skull:
I too was thinking Thomas's arrest could be related to his Venatory work.

Ebeneezer probably knows.  He knows approximately when Maggie Sr was with Raith and the White Council probably had enough intel on the White Court to have an idea of when Thomas was born.       

123Chikadee:
Right! Because I can't think of a reason why The Archive wouldn't be working towards destroying the Outsiders or at least making sure that Nemesis is dealt with.
It also guarantees that Thomas won't tell Harry what's going on and that he's lying about something major. b/c Thomas would have to lie about why he tries to kill someone and there's no way Harry won't find out that Thomas lied to him even if he doesn't get the real reason. 

morriswalters:
Isn't there a WOJ that say the Oblivion War won't come up in the books.
