I'm going to have to vote for "something just slipped his mind".  It
happens to all of us as we grow older.  I know that if I tried to
recount everything I did last weekend I'd leave things out.  Him
wondering if someone is messing with his mind is just paranoia.
That's how I read it at the time and I've not seen anything that
really changes my mind.
