Of course, keep in mind that if he was right that he was seeing things that couldn't possibly be there, that would mean he was hallucinating, and if he was actually hallucinating, his hallucinations wouldn't show up on camera. So it's possible he really was seeing something that wasn't there, but we have no way of knowing what he thought he saw, because... y'know.

Eh, he just punched Jay once, which is hardly insanely violent- even perfectly rational people wouldn't take well to a revelation of the sort he had just had, and his mental stability's shaky to begin with. There *could* be TO influence involved, but I'm not so sure.

Tim also seemed pretty much his usual self in 66, and was perfectly ready to brain Hoody with a wrench, so I don't know how nonviolent he really is when he's legitimately pissed off at someone- and at that point, he had no real reason to trust Jay much more than someone like Hoody or Alex.

And Jay hadn't just brought the knife as a defensive measure, either. He had it drawn, and even after it was clear that Tim was trying to talk to him peacefully (specifically, when Tim had him sit down on the couch after confiscating the knife), he again lunged for the knife in a way implying that he intended fully to use it then and there.

Theory:

TO is actually Craig Digsby from Nature Break. He ended up learning too much about Rosswood and became cursed. Everyone who learns too much about Rosswood is stalked by TO (Craig Digsby) so that they can take his place.

I'm not saying it's not possible for Jay to have been there on the defensive, but nothing about that scene gives me that impression. And his flipping out over Tim taking the camera at the end indicates that he was indeed not in the most stable of mental states at the time of the entry, so why should we assume that he had good intentions for the knife? Sure, his behavior *could* make sense even for a rational, well-intentioned person, but context does not suggest that he had given it any of the same thought you have. It's pretty clear we're supposed to think he's gone off the deep end when watching that scene.

Furthermore, it is clear from what he says to Tim in that entry that he was not there to reconcile despite what he had apparently intended the previous day, nor does he at any point say anything that fits in with the arguments he makes in the voicemail- clearly, something in his mindset did change. TO did something to him.

And he makes no attempt to defend why he'd brought the knife along, either. If he really had just brought it as a defensive measure, you'd think he'd say as much and try to convince Tim of his good intentions or something, but he seemed pretty hostile overall.
