Also, did anyone else notice that there was no coughing fits, or coughing at all? Granted, there's no proof that slendy was the cause of the coughing, so maybe that's not related, but still.

Won't it just be a kick in the dick if we find out that Alex's middle inital is actually R and totheark just wanted Alex? It makes sense.

I'd imagine they would have made that clear by now. :/


I think they've come out and said that it isn't.

Well, the chimney might not be the ark, but it might have the ark in it, or the tree that's on top might have something to do with it.

Or, the bricktree could just be a distraction, and Slendy's appearance there in particular could be a coincidence, having chased Jay around for a while. This points toward Slendy being totheark.

However, on the assumption that it IS the ark, or that the ark is in it, there are two possibilities that come out of it. One of the possibilities is that Slendy is protecting the ark. Another possibility is that Slendy is totheark and is trying to 'unlock' it. In both cases, Jay seems to be the 'key' to the ark.


I definitely agree that Jay is the key to all this, but I'm having a little trouble thinking of Slendy as totheark. It seems like it would contradict so many things we've noticed about Slendy and technology, especially.

So, you agree that Slendy is defending the ark, or do you have another theory?

Who said anything about defending the ark? They're just saying Slender Man's not TTA because honestly, enough already with the idea that a supernatural alien entity maintains a youtube account. That's so absurd it's insulting.

That's the idea. I was provoking freya to state her own opinions.

I don't think he's protecting the ark at all. Unless you look at the ark being a person or a thing that moves around, he's shown up too many times in too many places for it to be just protection. If you were guarding something, wouldn't you want to stay close to it so that you would know if someone got near?

Meanwhile, Slendy's wandering around, stalking Jay and Alex, and it certainly doens't seem like either of them are being protected. If anything, Slendy's attachment(?) to them seems to be a cue for all sorts of wierd stuff to go down.

Now if Slendy himself was the ark, perhaps totheark really wants to be led to Slendy. But again, that contradicts so much it's almost certainly not true.

We've all but completely proven that the Operator hates cameras, and totheark is clearly holding one outside Jay's car in 39, and proven in Forecast.

Operator =/= TTA.

With recent creepy developments of our friend Alex Reginald Kralie VII, I'm leaning towards Alex being TTA.

It makes sense, when you consider the season one developments.

Alex disappears.
Jay starts posting the tapes.
Totheark appears, and just so happens to have footage from the tapes that Jay doesn't.
Jay gets an f'd up tape (plus TTA-like HELP (X) message) containing footage of Alex.

Plus, the whole "-get a package delivered to your door. You're not a hard man to find." It was probably left ambigious for a reason, but I think that Alex was probably talking about himself.

Yeah, Slendy definitely is not TTA.

Honestly? Jay probably -would- be easy to find, if you knew how to work it. Unless he's gone to a lot of trouble to mask his IP address, etc. you'd at least be able to find out where the nearest server was when he posted and stuff. Plus, Alex must know Jay's last name, and Jay's probably in the phonebook. Or was, until his apartment burned down.[/quote]

That does seem to be the case with this series (The most obvious interpretation of an ambiguous statement/event tends to be the truth)

Hmm. You have a few points there. Going on the assumption that slendy is the ark, a theory I like, Jay's involvement in the story would boil down to simply being a spectator, which contradicts the totheark videos. Unless, of course, Jay is the only one who can get close enough to slendy to really do anything. Something about this theory tips me away from it, though. We've all but ruled out at this point that Masky is totheark, who, if I remember correctly, was confirmed to be Tim, and with slendy also chasing Alex around, that rules out Alex being totheark. Then who is totheark and how does he know Jay?

It's never been proven that anyone isn't TTA (except for maybe Jay). Tim is likely, if you look closely in 39, there seems to be something TTA is supporting himself with on the other hand (not the one holding the camera), and how does Alex being followed prevent him from being TTA?

I also highly doubt the Operator is the ark, and if totheark is looking for him, he clearly found him in Return.[/quote]

I love MH. In fact, I've made a point to get many of my friends and famiy involved in it and a few of the other top slendy vblogs. This episode and the last few are starting to ruin the series for me though. Please don't shoot me or hate me for saying this, hear me out first.

If I were Jay at this point, I'd tell Alex to go screw himself. "Don't worry about me...oh wait, you aren't anyway. You're just a selfish asshole who puts me down every time I actually talk to you. I set out to find you and 'rescue' you after the video of your girlfriend seemingly being tossed out a second story window by you, and this is the thanks I get?"

"MEET ME....AT...ROSSWOOD.."

"LICK...MY..."

"Fine, it's your ass"

"Yes, Alex, remind me again why it's My ass? Who's childhood pet was who's anyway? Was he yours, or were you his? Let's not forget that shit movie you insisted on making most of the crew is dead from"

CLICK

And suddently Slendy appears in front of Jay and gives him a "High five".

Jay: "He's such an asshole, what do you see in him?"

Slendy does the Slendy shrug


I'm not the only person thinking something like this?

EXTERIOR: FOREST -- Dusk -- Low angle, up from the ground. Jay is sitting on a log, we can only see him from the neck down. He takes out his cellphone, punches buttons:

KRALIE (filtered): You've reached the voicemail of Alex Kralie. I'm not answering the phone right now. Please leave your name and a number, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

JAY (over): Alex. Um, I'm in the woods right now, near where I parked. So if you're here and wondering where I am, uh ...

Suddenly decisive:

JAY (cont.):Then keep goddamned well wondering. You know what, Alex? Fuck this. Fuck this shit, fuck this whole shit. Fuck videos, fuck skinny dudes in suits, fuck being fucking scared all the time, fuck cameras, and you know what, fuck you, Alex Kralie. Twice. With something sharp.

JAY jumps to his feet. With a grunt, he hurls his cellphone as hard as he can into the gathering dusk. He stalks off, leaving the camera on the ground, still recording

Okay then, smartie, since you've provided a counter-point, can you provide us with a new point?

Might as well toss out the theory that TTA didn't know that the Operator was the ark at that point. Improbable, but worth mentioning.

And who says that TTA can't be Seth? He up and disappeared before this started, was cameraman at least a few times, which would give him the chance to get a few of those tapes copied, he obviously knows something's going on, since he was with Alex when he disappeared...

I've always assumed The Ark was some kind of protection or weapon against Slenderman, and that TTA/Masky is actually on Jay's side. TTA knows what the ark is but doesn't know where it is. Jay knows where it is but doesn't know what it is. Only problem I see with that theory is it doesn't explain why he doesn't just say "yo, it's Tim here, I know exactly what you're going through and I know how we can stop it" instead of putting on a mask and acting like a psychopath. Course this assumes TTA is Masky. If TTA is someone else, maybe there's very good reason for his/her cryptidness. Jessica, y u so no make non-cryptic videos for Jay??

I dont know if it has been mentioned, but has anyone realized that jay does not freak out as much as he should have at seeing slendy?

Also, has it been mentioned that this bricktree could be from the "downtown explosion"?

I know several people commented on how he had to do a double take, and the fact that he books it out of there is, to me, a pretty dead giveaway that he was freaked.

Downtown explosion? What's that?

PLEASE dont bring up entry 39 again! All that episode did was aggravate the tar out of everyone in the forum. We've all been over this possibly literally a hundred times by now: the video is far too blurry to distinguish any real details other than the figure being humanoid
