[UPDATE] rachelblake.com July 20

Rachel's Blog

linking us to Monster
Where we see a "disgrutled employee", presumably Rachel.

more to come, when we find the video.

Quote:
A couple of months ago, I was made privy to incriminating evidence concerning my boss and his overseas business projects. The research he has become engaged in -- using the resources and talents of many unwitting employees –- is questionable and almost certainly criminal in nature. To worsen matters, being that my boss is the CEO of a major scientific research company, his unethical acts affect many more lives than just those of my colleagues. I don't know what to do. Do I sacrifice my career to stop him -- or sit by and watch him ruin the company? I'm aware that blowing the whistle can have drastic consequences, but I feel morally obligated to take some action.

Thank you.

The Anoymous user is using the e-mail address infiltrate108SPLAThotmail.com. Nice address. Out of curiousity, I wanted to see what her security question is. obviously it would be silly and rude to try and guess the answer, but the question itself is quite interesting: "Grandfathers occupation."

Kudos to the writers for some quality cheesy lines in this video:

"Don't! ... don't. I'm going to hell... I'm just making sure Mittlewerk is there to keep me company."

Lines like that plus the classic bad acting make for some laugh out loud moments. Two thumbs up, family entertainment for all!

EDIT: wrote this at the same time as Strings above.
If you look at the username Anonymous under what we think is Rachel's post, it links to this email addy: infiltrate108SPLAThotmail.com

I am going to write to her! EDIT: no bounce back so far.

Now lets talk about what it means...Ironman clearly says "He wants me to help you" - so who is he? As Ironman is opposed to Mittelwerk, I contend it must be Alvar Hanso. At Rachel's blog wehre she posted the link to the video, she says:
Quote:
Oh. By the way, all that "He wants me to help you" business?

Ignore it. I have no idea what that guy was talking about.

I call shenanigans! She looked down at the moment the guy was saying that and the audio gets all choppy. I think Rachel is clearly trying to hide her real identity, as Ironman obviously knows who she is. He references her mother too.

Also, Ironman asks if her mother told her, and Rachel nods. Told her what? That Mittelwerk is her father? Ironman goes on to say that Rachel has a vested interest...vested b/c Lord Vader is her father??

This is getting pretty awesome.

"He wants me to help you"
OK, the last line Ironman says lends weight to my theory. If Ironman wants to make sure Mittlewerk is in hell, then it doesn't make sense that "He" and Mittlewerk are the same.
What if Rachel Blake is Alvar Hanso's daughter, and Hanso wants Ironman to help her. I think Mittlewerk and his team pushed Hanso out, and threatened his life, so he went hiding. From his secret location, he has been observing Rachel and is guiding help her way to take down Mittlewerk.

entirely plausible.

Yeah I agree, "he" is not Mittelwerk. Rachel is either descended from Hanso or Mittelwerk - either way she'd be pissed off at Mittelwerk and want to take him down. If she is Rachel Hanso, it's b/c Mittelwerk pushed out Alvar and possibly also b/c he did something evil to her mom. If she's Rachel M., its b/c she is disgusted with who TWM is and possibly also b/c he did something evil to her mom (loved her and left her, and/or cheated on her - would explain Rachel's obsession with Hugh's infidelity). I am going to start looking at older stuff for any smaller pieces of info to tip the scales one way or the other. Rachel seems hung up on her mom and infidelity, so we just have to do the math and see how those two things factor into her motivation and background. In any case, Blake is probably her mom's maiden name and she is using it to show her support and at the same time to hide her identity - but in an "if you were paying attention, you would notice" sort of way to thumb her nose.

Also, consider that Rachel doesn't want us to know who she really is. So which way does that cut - Rachel Hanso or Rachel Mittelwerk? Which is the source of her "vested interest"?

Wild SPEC: Rachel is the result of Hanso experimentation with test tube babies, genetic engineering, etc. as part of life extension. In movies those people always hate their makers.

Now that is interesting? Rachel, Joop's 106 year old cousin!

Could Rachel in fact be Rachel Wales and/or Libby Wales?

Would explain why the picture had a question mar, since perhaps McIntyre or perhaps Mittelwerk was having an affair with the woman, got caught, and they didn't get the chance to take down her name, only her picture, from the Flash site.

Which would be why we never saw Libby's face, they (or maybe Persephone, in trying to hide her identity) didn't want to tip off that she was an exec in the company. Could also explain why TWM thought he recognized her.

Still, kinda young to be a corporate exec. Life Extension, perhaps?

I really think that the Liddy Wales character is about as important as Dick Cheever; not at all. These are filler characters. And I can see how maybe they left the pic of Liddy off the site to fill in the bit Hugh said about the new webmaster not making changes to the site quick enough.

I personally don't think she's related to Hanso. Surely if she was, and she wanted to take Mittelwerk down, she wouldn't hide this, as it'd get what she had to say noticed, and above all, might make Mittelwerk worry more.

Heh, thanks for the correction. I would go edit it in, but I'm at work so I didn't log into the forum.

Anyway... you could be right, but it still seems strange to me that Persephone would trash two of the other two people on that particular screen, but leave Liddy and Dick alone.
