The media don't quite know what to make of him, this strange man living in the Tyler's house that has apparently sprung from nowhere. No matter how good both he and Pete are at forging records, no one is fully satisfied with the story - but not everyone was ever going to be.
They like him a lot more after he invents tea though.
After that, the media take a far less hostile stand towards the odd man living in the hospitality of the Tyler's who was almost uncomfortably close to the heiress.
But even the reporters can see how madly in love they are, and perhaps it's for that reason that the press never leave them alone, ever if it's under the pretence of asking Chris if he's got any more inventions planned.
(And boy, he does. This world doesn't have aeroplanes either.)
