I agree, they treated Carl pretty badly in that one. Plenty of celebrities that I once liked are terrible people and I don't think they should get a pass for it.

Yeah, that was really sad to see. It is implied that they thought that Carl had just arrested Buddy out of petty jealousy. They should have realized that he never would abuse his authority as a police officer though. But we can at least be happy that Buddy got what he deserved in the end.

At least they got a chance to hear the guy speak candidly and realized what a douche he truly was.

It's one of those scenarios that [sadly] often happens in real life, where people fall in love with a tv/movie character, but then blindly assume the actor is gonna be the same kind of person. Then they find out (through a strange series of events) what kind of an asshole the actor truly is, compared to their character. I plenty of real-life examples of this if anyone is curious.
