Default What is wrong with this picture?

Ok, so I have a problem tomato plant.

From right to left in this picture these plants are Sweet 100, Sungold, and Chocolate Cherry. (with a few bell peppers hanging out in between)




They were all planted on the same day, guess which one is giving me a headache...

That last tomato has had some bad luck. It grew slowly from the start, and then a deer visited and gave it an informal pruning, but the deer snacked on the other two plants as well and they recovered nicely.

What could be causing that last plant to stay stunted? Could it be insects? I have taken a few pictures of the various bugs on the plant.

The plant:




The suspects:












So yeah... essentially that last tomato is the neighborhood salad bar.

Any ideas?
