I sometimes lean forward when I'm talking on my phone, in a car, just like that. The area you highlighted looks exactly the same in the several times he leans forward. I'm afraid I'm going to have to say, that isn't the Operator. I've really zoomed in, using 720p, and it's just not cutting it for me.


Same, especially in uncomfortable calls, like that one, it wouldn't be uncommon to be shifting when you just inadvertently revealed that someone has been missing for 3 months, and that the person who should know where they are, has been lying.

I think Alex sacrificed Amy and is telling people different stories to cover his ass. He told Jessica that Amy was with him under the assumption that she'd just leave it alone and be out of the picture and he told Jay that he needed help finding Amy to make it seem like he was the caring boyfriend. IIRC, when Alex called Jessica in entry #43 we don't hear the phone ring or Jessica's voicemail pick up, we only hear Alex leaving a message on his side of the phone. Sketchy if you ask me.


Sketchy yes, but I think the reason we don't hear the phone ring or Jessica's voicemail is simply because he didn't have it on speaker phone?

I think it must have went something like:

Jay: I need to keep these tapes and Alex's hard drive in this safe. What should I use as the combination?
Jessica: How about my phone number? Alex will never guess that.
Jay: BRILLIANT.

ik, i used to post as guest

This also works, and kind of goes with what I'm saying... Kind of.

ok, but never before has troy repositioned himself 3+ times like he is here. it's almost forced the way he's moving forward in his seat. don't go by my screenshot, it's resized. open the video and watch for yourself.

i'm not going to sit here arguing about it, but i can assure you it's not shadows playing mind tricks on me


What is the time stamp for it?


no specific time stamp, just look in that exact spot when jay leans forward each time. to say they're done playing where's waldo is absurd.

Here is what Pravado thinks he sees, but it is clearly not Slendy. It's just trees, and it's quite clear from his comments that he is unabashedly trolling; he's already claiming the lighting defense, for instance.

As for the LEAN FORWARD CONSPICUOUSLY, chalk it up to the fact that IT'S A HORROR SERIES, and Nothing is Scarier. They WANT us to jump because we expect to see Slendy, and we do when he leans forward like that. But him not being there is just as scary as him being there leaning in looking at Jay.

think about it this way

from a storytelling perspective what would the author achieve by putting the Operator anywhere in this Entry. Like Kurt Vonnegut said, if it isn't advancing the action, or developing the character, don't write it. The Operator being in this entry has no actual point to it, and we're discrediting Troy and Jay as writers for beating ourselves for scouring for him such.


You... I like you.

Good point. In entry 7, I think, the point was to show that thing was following Alex. In fact, Jay says that at the end of the entry.

Jay is also finding out that Alex has been lying to Jessica, one of Amy's close friends, and possibly even to him. Personally, when I learn of something shocking, I can't sit still. I don't see why Jay would either.

This, 100%. I think there's crucial stuff in here. Not to repeat myself, but for an example, I think we can deduce from this entry that Jessica was not a masky in Entry 45.

Guess we all expected more with the running time being 7:40...
But anyways:
-The tape: Jay seems to be suspicious about Alex, and the contents of the tape may prove his suspicions. What´s on the tape, it´s nothing good I guess. *cough*amyisdead*cough*
-Alex, on the other hand, may be suspicious about J. Why, I guess the Masks and a Thin Fellow trying to kill him might have to do something with it.
Still, I think he is on Slendy´s side, but he doesn´t know it. The times he seemed not to be himself (especially the time he walked DIRECTLY towards the Operator) imply he is being controlled/possessed. He is suspicious of everyone while ignoring he might be the bad guy.
-I caught on that the safe code was the last part of Jessica´s phone number. So Jessica and Jay may have been working together by having their rooms together. Jay hid the tapes on his room, while Jessica... hid something else. For some reason, I think it´s THE tape.
Wait, had an idea. The key J found in Alex´s house... leads to Jessica´s room. The safe, and the tape, are in her room...
But we will find out soon enough.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Seeing as there will be less than 10 entries until the season´s finale...


But anyways, I´m just leaving my 2 cents.

oh so you're one of those guys who thinks that anyone who disagrees with him is trolling. i was mocking the last thread's 10+ page lighting defense force.

if you don't want to believe he's there, then don't. i'm not going to sit here and convince you that he's there.

If you have any doubts, look here ^ This pretty much make the most sense as to why the Operator is now a mostly foreground guy, no longer shadow lurking.

Nah, I think that people who make only negative comments about these videos and then claim to see things that aren't there and fail to adequately demonstrate it are trolling.
