What we see here is that the Operator wants to drive people apart. He wants his victims to be isolated ("BE ALONE"). Could that point to a possible weakness?


I doubt it. If that were true, then why would Hoody be alone?

I think that this entry shows that the Operator has a goal, and he's playing with Jay and Alex like chess pieces. Probably Tim.
And, worryingly, maybe even Hoody.

-Third, they finally addressed the whole "what's on the other side of that tunnel" thing. The question remains though, for me at least, is that an alternate reality on the other side of he tunnel? A parallel dimension? Or a different time? I have a feeling, as was mentioned by someone before me, that Jay's message might get to Tim's phone in the future. As in its possible that when he went through the tunnel, he was in the future, called Tim and left a message, then went back to regular time. A stretch, but a definite possibility. This leads directly to my...

-Fourth point. I've always had a trouble grasping Rosswood's geography and it seems we might finally know why... And also why sometimes you get lost there for ages and ages, and other times Tim can beat Jay to their cars ala 64/65. Also why they couldn't find the shack when they looked for it. Warped or shifting geography; either that or teleportation, but I'm guessing the former, for two reasons. When Tim and Jay go to find the shack they had woken up in previously, Tim is very agitated it isn't right where he is sure it had been before. Also, when they woke up and left the shack, they didn't travel through the tunnel to escape or they would have mentioned it or at least not had to come back and search it in 64/65 and now also 82.

I had already suspected that through the tunnel was some sort of pocket space, like the labyrinth in House of Leaves. The other side of the tunnel is probably different based on whether you go through it or around it.

I don't know if I am just seeing things, but this looks like a mask.

Yeah, I think the fact that Tim said "as far as I remember" heavily hints at him having received the message, just don't remembering.

Great entry, but does it bother anyone else that no one ever references "Oh, and there's the faceless guy in the suit who's after us again"? Tim's comments at the end of the video are almost like he couldn't see Slendy. (Which, I assume, is not the case.) Even if it was to say that he maybe understood a bit more WHY Jay had gotten violent since, hey, there was the faceless guy in the suit, standing over him. Eighty-two entries in, and no one has directly mentioned the thing that's stalking them. Just gets up my nose a little.


Jay calls him "that thing" in entry 42. Later in the series, Tim mentions "Alex and that thing that follows him around"


I stand corrected! Thank you for clarifying that for me!

There is another instance of a very strange phone related anomaly occurring in Rosswood, and it also happened when someone tried to go through the tunnel. Remember in 64/65 when Alex called Jay and said "Leave. Now." That was SUPER fucking random and weird and never really explained. Was that TO using a clip of Alex's voice to try and communicate with the intruders? Or was Alex temporarily in a timey wimey situation himself, calling a Jay whom he still thought was his ally? Why if the Alex that calls Jay in 64 was in fact past Alex from the missing seven months in S2 when he and Jay were still allies? Just some food for thought, obviously speculation but that was never explained.


I was thinking the exact same thing.I felt that way when I first saw that entry,and I feel that way now after this entry and what supposedly maybe happened with that phone call.

I always thought it was very eerie and out-of-place that Alex called right then when they were IN the tunnel.One of the creepiest things in MH is the entries where it seems the Operator is mimicking the boys at various points,even coughing,like it's distorted or backward.That always squicked me out majorly.

good entry


Finally, one last thought in relation to my 6th point... There is another instance of a very strange phone related anomaly occurring in Rosswood, and it also happened when someone tried to go through the tunnel. Remember in 64/65 when Alex called Jay and said "Leave. Now." That was SUPER fucking random and weird and never really explained.

I like how you brought up the Alex phone call that seemed to appear out of no where. It makes sense, but time travel probably isn't the case.

I would say that TO is able to bounce radio waves around until they finally reach their destination. A radio wave is like any other electromagnetic wave. And seeing as TO screws with all sorts of technology I can only assume that radio waves can be messed with as well. If he really does have something to do with radio waves, then that might explain the TTA video

A good deal of TTA's videos reference some form of radio waves such as surveillance, program, forecast, broadcast, and operator. Not sure if i'm digging too deep, but I think I see a radio wave theme going on here.

So I can't for the life of me figure out why Jay thought it was a good idea to go into that tunnel. All the very bad, no good things that have happened there, either on tape or while he was actually there to see it and he just decided "hey, why not, what could go wrong?" Other than that, I liked this entry. TO's appearances were creepy, the walk through the tunnel had me tense while anticipating something horrible happening and poor Tim is stuck in the middle of this mess all alone now.

A few other little things I forgot to mention:

-the road by the shack where Jay first sees TO, thinks he's hallucinating and calls Tim is the same place we last saw Jessica before she is taken in 76

-I don't think Tim is lying. Why would he lie? And to who, us? Why? If he didn't want us to know, he wouldn't have posted the footage. And the innocent phone call is definitely something Tim would've mentioned when he yelled at Jay after subduing him in 77.

-two things about 77 and 78 are very unsettling now... 1) In 77, that last time Jay lunged for the knife on the counter after Tim got it away from him... If Jay is proxified, it turns out Tim got very lucky he treated him as he did and left him behind and 2) In 78, when Hoody freed Jay, did Hoody know Jay was proxified and in violent mode? That ominous message on the mirror becomes even more ominous if he did... Was Hoody provoking a violent response from Jay? Did he do the same to Alex? And considering this, is that why Hoody swung a wrench at Jay in 79? Because he knew Jay was in a crazed and violent state and thus feared him?

-just wanted to point out, the shack is not the same as the Hoody hut from 68

-does the timing of this phone call line up with any of those bursts of non-code nonsense that was tweeted? Just curious

-Also, in support of the Rosswood shapeshifting/geography shifting, Jay himself says everything is moved around and not where it should be "unless he's losing it" but I think he's relatively sane until he seizes up at the end of the coughing fit at the end. After all, he thinks he's hallucinated TO but he very clearly was actually there.

-This reminds me of season 1, in Brian's house, when the doors didn't lead where they should. Maybe it wasn't active teleporting like we've thought but legitimate warping of like... Spacetime? Similar to Rosswood, things just... Aren't where they should be.

Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

EDIT: No because the code was after Jay went to Tim's house in Entry #77. And Oddly enough at the time Jay wanted to talk to Tim he posted on twitter

"Tim, if you can see this, we need to talk."

"@MarbleHornets Is everything okay? Is he answering his phone or did you try?"

"@thedaddysbean Didn't answer."

Okay. It seems The Operator did to Jay here whatever he did to Alex so long ago. And maybe tried to do in #72, before Tim interfered. That makes me revisit a theory I floated for #80: that TO was actually saving Jay (possibly from Alex) when he took him.

The phone call has me perplexed; we hear it go through, but Tim never receives it. Or so he claims. I admit I'm more inclined to believe TO did something weird to keep Tim from getting that message than Tim lying about it. Of course, he could just be remembering wrong; the words "if I recall" are pretty much worthless to anyone that's come in contact with The Operator. Or maybe the "Future was phone!" people are correct and Tim will get that call in a later entry -and may or may not realize what's happening.

So here's a possible scenario: Tim gets a voicemail on his phone -this one. He, not realizing or remembering what's up ultimately gets lured into a trap where he's attacked by a brainwashed and crazy Jay.

Also, I like having a definitive answer to the question raised in #64: did the shack disappear, or were they just lost. I would argue this entry proves it actually did disappear on them. Or rather, it shifted locations.

That leads me to another question some over in the Hoody Hub asked: does Rosswood park shift itself, or is it the Operator's doing? Which caused me to speculate that maybe Rosswood is the real problem, and TO is just an extension of it. That might explain TO's bizarre appearance; a poor attempt at mimicking a human form by something that lacks a fundamental understanding of humans.

Or maybe I've just had too many cookies. That's always possible.

Okay, so we are finally seeing the shack from entry 62 again. The first time we saw this shack it didn't really have any connection to the operator. Hoody steals Tim's meds and watches as he goes Masky then prompts Jay to go find him. This sets up the encounter in 62. In 62 Masky drags Jay off camera after jay had dropped it. Hoody picks it up and the next thing we see is Jay waking up in the red shack with the camera on the ground in front of him. Tim is also just waking up outside the shack.

The question is why go to that shack and what happened between the time Jay is dragged off and the time he wakes up? When they try to go back to the shack to get answers, they can't find it.

Now Jay has found it but it isn't in a place that makes any sense. It seems the operator has shifted him there. We don't see the shack until after the operator shows up in this entry. In fact, this operator appearance is a bit different than usual. Jay starts to run away as usual but then TO just disappears. But what if TO stayed where it was and it's Jay who has moved or been teleported? Maybe TO wanted Jay to go to the shack. Was that what happened in entry 62? Was Masky acting as and agent of TO when he dragged Jay to the shack? Did TO do something to them there? If that's true why didn't Hoody record it since he must have followed. Or maybe he did and the video got corrupted by TO?

Ugh, this just raises more and more questions.
