Default Why no escape tower on Gemini Titan Rocket

I was looking at and comparing the different earlier manned Space Flight vehicles of the U.S. and I was wondering why the Gemini Titan looked like a departure from the others and then it hit me.

It doesn't have an escape tower.

So then my next question is why? I'm sure someone here knows.

An example of what I'm talking about is attached.
