EIGRP Route not in EIGRP Topology?!?! HOW?!

Okay..... how in the world could a route that shows up in the routing
table not also show up in the EIGRP Topology table? My basic assumption
(which could be wrong) is that any network that is learned via EIGRP
should also be in the EIGRP topology table.
 
Reason I ask is that if you do 'sh ip eigrp top <network>' it will show
you the end to end delay as seen by that router. I'm investigating a
routing issue and this information could be very important, but it's not
there.
 
It seems like some routes are there and some aren't. Below is output
from a router that clearly shows both routes learned by EIGRP, but only
one shows up in the table..... But if you do a 'sh ip eigrp' (without
specifying a network) you see the entry for the missing network....
WTF?!?!?
