From the Village Voice:

It's also a grand tradition, among Scientology spokespeople, to act bewildered when they're facing a camera and they're asked about Xenu and space-alien thetans. Tommy Davis is just doing what other mouthpieces have said in the past. We seem to remember practically the same routine on an MTV program years ago - "Xenu? Never heard of him."

But Davis gives the game away when Roberts asks him to give a basic description of what Scientologists do believe, and Davis can't do it. Maybe because this doesn't play well on national TV:

Superhuman powers! The ability to leave your body! To shape space and time with your mind! To be impervious to disease and live forever! And all for only a mere $100,000 in cash, several years of your life, separation from your family and friends, and complete dedication to a dead pulp-fiction writer who dreamed up a religion starring disembodied alien souls being carried through the galaxy on spacecraft shaped like DC-3s!
