The whole entry where Tim introduces Alex to the hospital seemed way to coincidental. Alex was already being slender stalked and he just so happens to be lead to the town TO originated from. Alex was slender stalked before he even knew what the hospital was, and then Alex knew to feed brian to TO at that particular spot when it was his first time being there no less. Jay even stated he doesn't know why Alex was at the rosswood town. I don't think it was Tim's fault but rather an accident. But come someone explain to me if this is a coincidence. I love MHs but the story seems weak here.

And as for whether or not they're gonna make him the bad guy: in storytelling there's a difference between a carefully-planned plot twist and an out-of-the-blue shift that's only for shock value. They've developed him so carefully as a good (albeit possibly dishonest) character that they're beyond the point at which they could make him a villain and have it be believable.

Jay, on the other hand...considering what Slender-Sickness tends to bring out in people, Jay becoming a villain is still very much a possibility. Much as I love him. :'(

So, uh, this is awkward . In light of the latest entry I'd like to revise my stance. I still believe in Tim, but it's very shaky.

I trust him completely.

He didn't make an attempt to really attack Jay in his house in the struggle for the tape and he also didn't follow him. He also made a point of giving Jay his medication when Jay was out of it as well as making sure Jay got an appointment with his doctor.

Plus.. he's got some pretty sick rollerblades

My bias for Tim makes me want to be able to trust him.

However, there's a lot of evidence that pragmatically points out otherwise. Such as being accused as a liar on a frequent basis.

Although Hoody could be just as unreliable. I don't want to kill my brain cells thinking about it.

I used to trust Tim completely. Then he started drugging Jay while he was unconscious. Despite his arguments, there was a safe way to handle that situation. Take him to a doctor & be like, "Y'know doc, I think this medication might help him, you might wanna check that out if you don't have anything else." But still, I was mostly in his corner, & wondered why Jay was being such a colossal asshole to him, considering Tim seems to have saved him from The Operator.

Then it turns out, whoa, ToTheArk was telling the truth, & not just a technical truth, but an faithful representation of the situation: Tim was lying the whole damn time. Again, there were ways to handle this.

I don't know if I think he's an antagonist, but I definitely do not trust him, & if I were Jay, I wouldn't be taking chances. Alex was a whole lot less shifty, & he pulled a fucking gun out. Plus, there's that thing where Tim sometimes puts on a mask & goes apeshit. If Tim's not going to help me find shit, I'd be dumping his ass, too.

And now it looks like maybe Alex isn't the real bad guy, but Hoody is. Which means that maybe Tim is, too.

All VERY suspicious.

If Jay becomes the bad guy, that will be some brilliant storytelling and I'll be genuinely surprised.

EDIT: Also, I fully trust Tim. He kept a tape from Jay, sure, but it's not like Jay has never done anything sneaky himself.

I just want to see what's on that tape.
