Annnnd here comes another theory i'm throwing at the wall to see if it sticks. Maybe Alex has that tape there as a cry for help? If it was incriminating, wouldn't he have burnt it? He knows Hoody likes to creep around. Again, another out-there theory, but i'm just shotgunning till I hit something.

I'm waiting for someone to say that the figure was Seth.

Maybe it was Sarah with her hair in a bun? The enlongated shape of the figure's head that we've been confusing for Jay could be due to a hairstyle we haven't previously considered. If it's Sarah, perhaps she was Tim' booty call (girlfriend?) back during MH and his ultimate secret is that he's doing all of this to save Sarah, paralleling Alex's Amy and Jay's Jessica. Perhaps creating these situations for the boys is TO's method of manipulating the boys so that they lose their minds and do increasingly irrational things.

For that matter, it could be Jessica. This would be a dramatic time for her to reappear in the story, and would explain why Hoody would upload the Entry. That is, Hoody would assume that this would get Jay's attention if it were to be Jessica in that window, inspiring him to act, despite Tim's possible arguments to the contrary and his failing mental (and possibly physical) health. A "we can't give up now" moment.

Or what if it's Amy? Alex was indeed in the attic with her, and went down to investigate the noise, as a male would typically volunteer to do when with a woman and the two are alone together, so to speak. So he goes to check, and Hoody is quiet for a moment, until Alex is down from the attic. When he finally actually goes out the door, I presume he gave up on stealth and just booked it, I presume the door was at least certainly audible. Alex may have called "Amy!", concerned for her safety, perhaps causing her to rush (basically jump) out of the attic and directly to the window. Perhaps she heard the door slam herself, rushed from the attic calling "Alex!", and peered through the window assuming that perhaps he had run out after someone. It wouldn't be the first time he's chased someone sketchy from his house, and she may know this by now... He may have shown her some MH on youtube for him to explain the abomination they encountered, or perhaps she had no memory of the #26 events when Alex remet her and he has been trying to keep it that way all along. They could have been in the attic for any reason really, maybe they were having sex? Who knows, some attics are quite comfortably furnished.

Nope, if Alex is saving Amy and Jay's saving Jessica, then it's Seth who is saving Sarah. Dunno who's Tim saving then, though, perhaps it's time for a new character - Tina - to appear? Very Happy

Edit: Almost forgot about Brian. Brian's gonna save Bruce Very Happy

Yup, I just got MH figured out...

But what about that Stigma symbol that keeps popping up? Tim even had that on his shirt in one of the early videos, perhaps that's a clue. Also, Tim and Sarah were the only 2 characters shown to be in the movie, besides Brian. Being the lead meant maybe he was bound to get the girl (girl in the backseat, Entry #7) but I think everyone here would agree Tim is more handsome (sideburns, chin) and he's definitely a bad boy with that smoking habit. He seems like a lonely guy, so if Sarah was at all leaning in his direction he would jump all over that shit.

Edit: He had the enlongated S shirt on in a scene with Sarah specifically.

I just had a thought. Well, it's probably more like a Wild Mass Guess, but here goes: if it was indeed Tim Hoody was calling a "liar", maybe it's in regards to his memory problems. What I mean is, Tim has no memory of what he does as Masky, or why -and also has no access to the things Masky knows about the situation (and it's clear Masky does indeed know things). Maybe Tim's starting to remember things, and hasn't told Jay. Or he remembered all along. Either way it goes against his declaration of "No more secrets" back in Entry #66. Maybe that tape has proof.

I'm sorry, but if they start doing romance stuff I'm gonna be pissed...but you're right, Tim is quite handsome. Laughing

It was not a stigma. It was a monkey.

Jeez, I don't understand where everyone is getting that from.

I don't understand the bit with the tape at all. It makes zero sense whether the person is Jay or Alex.

If the person is Jay, then this entry showed us Jay has a tape in a box in his living room. Err... wow. Jay has buttloads of tapes. He probably stores tapes in each room simply because they won't fit in one at this point.

If the person is Alex, then golly, thanks Hoody for kindly letting us know that Alex is withdrawing some more tapes, but since he probably saw the entry too, he's gonna send them to a no-questions-asked deposit box in one of those Swiss banks now and we won't be seeing any of them anyway.

Either way, I don't see the point of showing us the bit with the tape.

Thoughts?

I think Alex has a simple reason to keep the tape out; bait for our curious heroes. Let's not forget that he opted to keep certain tapes on him even when he'd have been better off burning them. I don't think he'd just toss it away if its indeed something very important. Besides, he's desperate enough to try luring them back to Rosswood with it anyway.
Why Hoodie wouldn't take it himself, however, doesn't seem rational. He doesn't want Alex and Jay meeting up yet, right? Or is he trying to beckon Tim into action while Jay's out of it?

If its Jay, I don't know. Is there any special marks or something on the tape? Or could it be Hoodie's way of saying "Yo, Jay, review this footage. Its relevant now."

...That said, the lack of Tim reaction in the tweet makes me think it isn't Jay. Wouldn't he have said something then? :/

Onceyou hit page 25 the posts get absurd...seriously. it still makes sense it was Jay because it's Tim's house. Tim could have tapes hidden, going along with the liar thing
And hoody could want Jay to challenge him in it. Although I think finding it was an accident to be honest

You guys do realize it could just as easily been one of Jay's tapes, right? I mean, that kid bleeds frickin DVC tapes.

It's been known for quite a while now that Tim's shirt just has a monkey smoking a cigar on it. Tim Sutton himself actually confirmed it in the commentary or a conference or something. Can't remember, maybe it was both.

Even if he never did confirm it, though, why do people even think that they would take the time to make a shirt with that symbol on it? Additionally, why would someone have a shirt with a Stigma symbol on it at all? It narratively and realistically doesn't make sense.

Sorry, I just always thought this observation was silly.
