About Jessica being Amy's Roomate, we got that information from Alex. So that wasn't entirely reliable from the beginning. And Amy could easily be in on the whole thing. Amy could obviously vouch for Alex, if Jay ever decided to confirm it. Jessica is just a pawn to be used against Jay. She could have been paid as a third party. Or she could have been "Sledersuaded" into doing it for Alex.

Hoody's identity is most likely to be: Brian. Remember Alex dragging Brian away? We don't know what happened to him. Alex probably wiped his memory and either purposefully or by accident, turned him into Hoody.

Same thing happened to Seth. No reason to believe it would be Brian over Seth. In fact, seth makes more sense for multiple reasons. He is the film editor/cameraman and that would explain the B-roll from some of the TTA videos, and also when he gets taken a huge frown face that represents hoodys mask appears.

So now we've narrowed it down to Seth and Brian. With Seth being the most likely candidate. I hope it's Seth honestly. We never got to see very much of him at all. So it will be a nice change of pace. They would have plenty of reason to use the Hoody Mask. Alex wouldn't assume it was them, as he has personally dealt with both and now believes them to be dead and or missing. I would love to see Alexs reaction if it actually is Seth or Brian. "Wait a minute, I killed both of you myself! Shocked"

Also, I just noticed I'm an UnQuantifiable Boot. Ha! Yes I know Boot is a forum rank, but it's still funny.

@UnQuantifiable: Not to be rude, but how long have you been watching the series? It's been pretty clear for a long time now that Jessica was Amy's roommate. We first learned of this when Alex called her in Entry #43 to find out if she had heard from Amy. How could he have possibly known that Jay would later ask him for her phone number?

Here's how things went down:

- Alex calls Jessica in the hopes that she would give him information on Amy's whereabouts.
- Jay later asks Alex for Jessica's phone number, who reluctantly gives it to him only after he locks Alex's keys in his car.
- Later, Jay calls Jessica and discovers that Alex told her that he got in contact with Amy.
- Alex lures Jessica and Jay into a wood shed in the middle of the forest with the intention of murdering them. He tells Jay that he didn't want to get Jessica involved and that's why he told her that he found Amy. Masky intervenes, allowing them to escape.
- Jay and Jessica find a hotel to stay at, but the Operator attacks them and removes their memory of the past seven months.
- They both wake up the next day, having no idea as to how and when to got there. They eventually meet by chance in the hallway and Jay gives her multiple made up tales as to why he's there. She grows suspicious and confronts him, but she disappears shortly after and Jay leaves the hotel with the tapes.

Also, Alex knows who Hoody is. So if it was Seth or Brian, he wouldn't be surprised. And I really hope Hoody isn't Seth, because he's only been in three entries. Brian is a far more prominent character and therefore far more likely to be Hoody.

It's more likely to be Brian, actually. Brian was Tim's "first real friend", which is a nice parallel to Masky and Hoody. Seth hasn't been seen since season 1, so he's not that important unless he shows up on the tape Jay ran off with.

Seth was also seen in Season 3 (Entry #54), but only for less than 15 seconds, so he wasn't that important.

Mr Digsby, I wouldn't trust Alex with a foam mallet. I've been watching since Entry 1. We still got all the information for Jessica/Amy THROUGH Alex. He still has that "agreement" or whatever with the operator. Alex was perfectly calm when Jay noticed the operator standing near him (with Alex obviously knowing he was there). Alex doesn't want Jay to know where he lives. But wants Jay in an accessible location so that he can keep on eye specifically on Jay, through Jessica. With her either being conscious of cooperating with Alex or not.

And speaking of Entry 43, it ended with Alex being "taken" or whatever, by the Operator. Alex walked right towards that location in the forest, like he knew where to go. As if saying, mission completed sir. So how can you still trust anything Alex gives Jay? I'm sure as hell not gonna swallow Alex's blatant lies.

Also you can just call me UnQ for short, if you want.

I get your point, UnQ. But Alex never explicitly told Jay that Jessica was Amy's roommate with the intention of lying:

Entry #43

Alex walks back to the car, and calls someone on his cellphone.
Jay: "Who are you calling?"
Alex: "Roommate. Hey Jessica, it's Alex. Uh, I was just calling to see if you had heard from Amy recently. Uh, just give me a call back whenever you get a chance. Thanks."
Alex hangs up and starts the car.
________________________________________________________________

Even if Alex was lying, he how could he have possibly known that Jay was going to later get Jessica involved?

But I like typing out UnQuantifiable!

Next entry is most likely the hoody reveal. I picture it as Hoody maskless and Tim (masky mask?) talking about something that involves Jay. It'd ruin jay for mroe secrets

The Operator probably instructed Alex to get Jessica involved. Jay would more likely trust a third party (specifically a girl) more than someone he already knew. At that point, Jay wouldn't have trusted anyone. Alex just remembered that she was Amy's roommate, and through post-hypnotic suggestion from our tall faceless friend, he pushed Jessica towards Jay. Alex talked with Jessica before hand, got her to play her part. She most likely knew about the gun or knew that Alex was going to threaten Jay. What Alex didn't count on however, was the involvement of Masky. Thus everything went to shit, The Operator shows up at the hotel, and everything resets, well almost everything.

Well thats your choice Mr SupremeFace lol.

So would we all be collectively mad if Hoody turns out to be a completely new character we haven't seen before?

Or creepy walking in the woods guy from Season 2.

I hope it's not a new character honestly. It would just needlessly convolute things even further. Hoody needs to be someone we know. So that we can have more attachment to Hoody. Otherwise I would just loose interest in that character. That's just my thoughts though.

I think that guy was just there to throw the viewers off. He wasn't anyone in particular. Walking on these paths, your bound to run into random people now and again. Even though Marble Hornets has mostly been devoid of other people, it's bound you see someone irrelevant to the plot. That guy was just there to point out that fact. There were many of people in that Pawn shop, and on the street where Jay found Tim. And none of them are of any significance past that point in the story.

Even though Marble Hornets is supposed to be heavy on the details, not every detail has to be important. There were plenty of things in that pawn shop that could have had large impacts on the story. The paintings, the old camera on display, that sound of someone moving something that Jay heard. But they were shrugged off as nothing important.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Correct. To my knowledge, nothing has ever been stated explicitly. However, many of us assume that it takes place in Alabama due to the the filming locations.

Okay, wait-- which time travel theory's rules are we playing by, here?

The Back to the Future/Doctor Who rules, where if you directly cross your own timeline you rip open a hole in the very fabric of reality and potentially wipe out all of existence, past, present and future?

Or the Stephen Baxter's The Time Ships rules, in which going back in time and making even the slightest change simply grow a new "branch" on the tree of the multiverse?

Maybe we're going by TimeCop rules, which are just silly.

I like the idea of Jessica being part of Alex's master plan, I think it's possible, but I also think it won't happen. We've gone too long with the idea of Jessica being just a girl who got caught up in all of Jay's adventures and went missing, and it's been the root of many of our theories. Let's agree to disagree.

Ugh, Time travel in Marble Hornets... BUT! if you keep insist on talking about it, I assume it's gonna be more like Star Trek Time Travel. Nothing universe shattering will happen if you cross your timeline, just don't tell anyone about your experience and everything will be hunky dory. I'm a fan of paradox's though, unlike Janeway. I know there are time/space shananigans in Marble Hornets, but I highly doubt we're gonna see anything like our characters meeting their future selves. It's just not the vibe I'm getting from the series.

Agree'ed Mr Digsby.
