Now we can say, with 99% certainty that Jay is Hoody.

No, we can't. It's still possible to be Brian, Seth, or someone else. We just know for sure that it's not Jessica.

Was it significant that Jessica referred to Hoody as "him" when she says "I didn't get a good look at him?" Is this a gender confirmation (which would really only rule out Sarah, as Jessica confirmed that she remembered Amy and it seems a bit of a stretch that she wouldn't recognize her) or just a throwaway line I should chalk up to conversational English?

The latter.

White text intro and outro? WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?!


Goodbye Jessica.

Jay's going to be on tilt after this, and unfortunately, Tim's probably going to be his first stop. The fight will be epic. Taking odds on who's going to win.

From the looks of it, the previous speculation about the other side of the tunnel being überimportant might not hold much water. Hoody came from that direction, from the looks of it.

TO has a face in the distortion.

Just when I thought I had the TTA (Hoody)/Masky subplot all figured out, it's shot to hell. The code in Surveillance said "she's out there" and yet TTA made sure to point out the tape in entry 73 knowing what was on it. If the agenda was to string Jay along and keep him on track with the investigation, why muck it up?

 		SPOILER WARNING: I'm not spoilering this whole section off. Fair warning.

1. I found it odd Jay assumed Alex had something to do with Jessica's disappearance (#59), even though it is Masky/Tim who attacks Jay directly after she disappears (#33) (also, why did the 1102 card have the TO symbol for the 0? Jessica wouldn't do that unless under an influence, and it seems she was simply taken...so did Tim write it when he got her for Jay to find the tapes? How did he know the combo in the first place?).

2. Tim had a broken leg for 6-7 months. Not an expert here, but isn't that a LITTLE too long?

3. Hoodie's identity is officially biggest mystery #1 right now, both in and out of game. They clearly edited his/her "shhh" as so that not even the gender would be know (leading me to believe it is a girl).

3a. Possible (at least slightly realistic) candidates: Amy, Sarah, Brian, or Seth.

3b. I'd like to point out that Jay is most certainly not Hoodie. Look closely at the beginning of Entry #40. Not at Jay's elbow. Leaning against the tree is Hoodie. In a TTA video (the creepy drawings with the recording of Jay sleeping in 39-too tired to look up) there is also a drawing of Hoodie against a tree. You could try to say it wasn't Hoodie, but again when Alex arrives at Rosswood in 42 he is seen much clearer against another tree.

4. The acting felt very sub-par (could be my tiredness-it stood out when Alex said "follow me" but didn't move until he finished saying the word (not what you'd actually do).

5. Contrary to the other person complaining about the acting, I enjoyed the effects quite a lot.

7. 4:34 Alex says Jessica's memory lost "can be fixed"...and actually erases Jay's memory in #71...so he basically has control and knowledge of TO power's, yet chooses to take Jessica to the tunnel to finish her off with a gun....

6. BROWN HOODIE, ALEX!? IT IS NOT CLEARLY YELLOW!?????

9. Jay's fault=he upladed the tapes (52 Alex says this, and that he didn't want to get Jessica involved

11. Good thing Alex wiped his forehead when he did.

12. The hell did Hoddie do at 7:16? It looked like he took something out of his right pocket and tied it around Alex's...mouth, eyes, face, neck, Head Area....

23. 8:09 classic visual tearing (more subtle, actually)

666. "Jessica is gone, and has been ever since I left that hotel."

~By "gone" Jay means dead or taken to another dimension or transmitted to Christmas Island by TO, right?...

Because he knows Jay's in too deep now and his only choice is 79 South Creek Road.

 		Alex still pushing the assertion that this is all Jay's fault. Is it just because Jay is the one who started uploading the tapes? Alex gave him those in the first place. Has Jay done something more?

And still Alex is at least SAYING he's sorry. He also displayed regret when holding Jay and Jess at gunpoint, and said he should have burned the tapes in the first place.

why did they take Jessica out there in the first place? If they were trying to protect her, they did a piss-poor job of it. And if she was supposed to be bait for Alex, then why use her and not Jay? Is it because they think they need Jay for some reason, and Jessica was disposable in their eyes? If so, that's pretty damn cold. And ruthless.


But it wouldn't be cold or ruthless to use Jay as bait? In your eye, he's disposable?


In answer to your questions: yes, it would be cold, and no, Jay isn't disposable in my eyes. I don't think ANYONE should've been used as bait. My point was that Hoody and Masky could've used either one of them (since I don't buy the "they were trying to protect Jessica" theory) since Alex was trying to kill both of them, and they gave Jay a pass because they thought they could still use him for whatever they're trying to do. But they had no use for Jessica, so she was fair game. Even though she was innocent. That mind set is what I object to. and it makes me wonder if they're really that much better than Alex.

 		Alex is absolutely terrible at using a gun. Just stick to rocks, buddy.

 		In regards to bringing Jessica into the woods, it's worth mentioning that Tim and Hoody lured Alex into the woods in entry 45 before trying to head-rock him. They seem to like the woods, that's where Jay automatically knows Tim goes when he sees him go into a seizure and put on the mask.

More importantly, where did Masky go after they got Jessica into the woods. It looks like they had found their destination, and also looks like Hoody was not planning on Alex showing up. Is it possible Masky went to get Alex, to show him where Jessica and Hoody were hiding? Even if it's not true, that might be what Jay thinks happened, and explain his reaction. Masky and Alex were last seen alone in the shack in the woods before this (when Alex pulled a gun on Jay and Jessica). It's possible something happened there that made Masky join Alex's side (Operator intervention potentially).

I think Jessica is gone, but not dead. As mentioned previously, Tim has been to Operator-Land without dying, so it can be done. I think Jessica might be there, and the season ending could potentially be her explaining what she found out about the Operator.

It looked like Jessica shining the flashlight in his eyes, blinding him and leaving him open to an attack. Pretty impressive on Jessica's part.

Hoody has decided that Jay is useless to him and he would be better off running away and staying out of the conflict. It seems Tim wasn't in on this decision.

 		No, I think hoody and Tim just had a falling out...hoody probably taking things to far, Tim not wanting a part of it, so hoody exposed him as a liar

Jay uploaded the tapes; things were "quiet" in Alex's life after leaving College Town. Jay drug Jessica into the investigation. I'm also still thinking that there's other things yet to be revealed that points out to Jay doing some pretty sinister stuff in the early days, maybe helping Alex dispose of cast members.

 		The only thing I hope is that when Marble Hornets is all over there will be an extremely long post which explains the entire series. Going back through all 76 entries and even the TTA entries will be a tremendous task.

Question: How were the white-shirt guy and Jessica linked? There has to be a connection to the specific people Alex is killing.

Here's my theory on how that combination got there: Hoody and Masky knew Alex was was going to take Jay & Jessica to the... sawmill? Whatever that place was. Masky went ahead to lie in wait. Hoody followed along behind them just in case (remember Jess heard footsteps behind them even though Masky was ahead of them). When he was sure they were going where he thought they were, he went to back to the parking lot to wait. Cue the two runnin out of the woods to their cars. Hoody was probably hiding close enough to hear Jay tell Jessica where to meet him, and went straight there to wait for them. He was most likely also hiding and listening in when Jessica told Jay to use 1102 as the combo for his safe. Much later, when it was clear they were out of time, Hoody told Masky the combination so he could write it down for Jay. He added the little Operator symbol.

 		He was paranoid and thought it was Jay.
