Hi everybody, now I feel that we have failed to really get into what Jessica was saying that would freak J out... example:

"I keep having these nightmares where im a little kid and something's watching me" and all that

Now, what if J is having the same dreams? Would that not freak anyone out if they were having the same kinds of dreams, I mean, that's about the point in the video where J starts freaking, I think it's reasonable to say he is having dreams about the same thing.

Does anyone else think that the 'I'm giving up on the safe' thing is less of a 'it's not important', and more of a 'the community has failed to solve it, so I'm letting it go' thing?

@Acora- Gosh, I hope not. We've been trying so hard! Me not as much as others, but still.

@FallenTraveler- AH! That sounds really reasonable, and would be an awesome way for things to turn out!

Hi! Long long long time lurker, decided to make an account and join the shenanigans.

Anyways, Jessica freaks me out. I'm not sure why. Something about the way she's acting makes me scared of her. She's sort of...dodgy? I just get the distinct impression she's not sharing some things. I don't know.

Also, as someone else said before, maybe Jay's been having similar dreams to the ones Jessica described. He had an uncharacteristically strong reaction to that bit, what with the whole "stop" thing. Then again, maybe that was just his reaction to the sudden realisation that Slenderman is probably incredibly close.

I really hope the "giving up on the safe" business doesn't actually mean we'll never find out what's in the safe. You guys have been trying SO hard to get the solution to the safe conundrum, and I think we all really want to know what's in there. :< Maybe Jessica will end up knowing the combination? ...Or the hotel staff? I don't know I'm grasping at straws here in my desperation to find out what's in the safe. I'm just so curious!

Anyways, also, I just have this mental image of Slenderman/Masky having a little tea party in the room next door to Jay right now, ears pressed against the wall as they giggle over the panic they've caused.

ANYWAYS, I'm done with my rambling now.

TL;DR Jay is so dead.

So, Jay said leave the door open because as we learned in season one, some doors don't lead where you think they do. Maybe the reason the dream thing freaked him out: he said on his twitter that he couldn't sleep, maybe it was because all the nightmares?

I personally think Jay and Jessica are not going to escape the hotel that easily. Maybe there will be some time-space warping shenanigans? Also, for people talking about Jessica looking about in her state of panic, I've been in hysteria before, and it's hard to concentrate on the person you're talking to, since you're so scared. Also, I think Jessica's really trying hard not to cry. Good job for her, because I wouldn't have been able to handle that sort emotional pressure.

Anyways, I honestly think Jessica is a true victim here, along with Jay. I might be wrong, but that's just what seems to click in my mind best.

Why are people convinced the safe and the hotel are done for? I doubt a mysterious hotel that only has the two of them is going to let them leave that easily.

And the whole "WE didn't solve it fast enough" for the safe theory is ridiculous. There hasn't been any point in the series so far where we've had to solve a mystery for Jay, they'd make it more obvious we HAD to do it then that. I think people forget this is more of a video series than an ARG. Because of how linear the storyline is, I don't think they have ROOM for the chance the viewers don't open a safe in time or whatnot.

I'm convinced the safe holds a stack of tapes from before Jay and Jessica's memory got wiped.

If I'm counting right, this is the 50th Marble Hornets release (32 entries + 15 TTA videos + 3 miscellaneous). Probably not intentional, but a nice touch to have such a momentous entry for this occasion.

Jess and the distortion had me at the edge of my seat for most of the video. Seriously, that was chilling. Also, kudos to Troy for keeping himself consistent; the way J's breathing and camera movements changed was reminiscent of Entry #23. Really effective.

J saying that he's going to ditch the safe is just proof that it's still important, IMO. He would have just forgotten about it otherwise, I'm sure. I know he did essentially the same thing with the bullet casing, but that thing was a clue in its own right; the safe, if ignored, would serve no purpose. I really doubt it's going to be left hanging forever.

[carameldrops]

Agreed on the safe. Bringing it up again seems from and OOG perspective to be more of a hint/reminder that it's still lurking back there. I think there's a good chance Jessica knows something about it, or possibly even the code, although she may not remember. Maybe she has it written down somewhere with no clue what it means. xD

Oh mah word! I'm really looking forward to the next entry

And lol @ the comments on Jess's smirk - I thought it was pretty realistic? She was heading into hysterical and the mouth does warp into a kinda creepy smirky smile when you're in that state. I also think her performance in this entry has been the best of any MH actor so far! Jay has improved a lot, but he still seems incredibly wooden during his awkward chats with her.
