I can't remember much of what I was planning to say, but I do have something for those people who say that "two weeks" was too long:

This is the first time that Jay has encountered the Operator (especially up close) and remembered. He has forgotten nearly every other encounter. Considering how Jay was during Season 2 after his encounter with our mysterious tall man, it is fairly reasonable to assume that Jay was scared nuts, and having a panic attack, when he got home. He also was probably insanely paranoid and changed locations a few times.
In addition, some things are sounding familiar. Sadness, no purpose or direction, being absolutely alone...All of those things add up to one thing. Considering how Jay went through Entry 60.5, I think that it is pretty safe to believe that he is dealing with some depression. Which is not good for our main character.

I think he remembered the encounter in #40 (well, they didn't exactly mention it but they probably would have been more explicit with it), and he said that his escape from the tunnel was "blurry". Which... is ambiguous as hell. Ughhh why are you doing this to us, Jay?

He remembered his Slender Man encounters after entries 40 and 46, and he remembered it for the few seconds between seeing him in 52 and deciding to tackle him in 52. But all of those are from the seven months he stopped remembering after he did decided to tackle him in 52. As far as this version of Jay's concerned, he only personally remembers the last one.

I think the dude's point was just that this is one of the few times where Jay has had a direct and vivid encounter with The Operator, so Jay's a little more paranoid/shocked than normal, and that's why he's been so fidgety/slow at getting back to entries IG.

Looks like I got one of the forms a little wrong - it says "monthly session", not "dialysis session". I dun goofed.

So, a couple of random thought...

Firstly, Alex's birthday in 1991 as per enttry 37 is his 5th. On the medical forms, Tim is said to have only completed grade 2 in 1995. Which leads to two options.

1. The most likely is that Alex is two years older than Tim, which means that Alex, at 9, could have easily lured/brought Tim, age 7, out to Rosswood park. This could have been his first example of what he did to Tim and Brian later on at the doctor's office.

2. Less likely, but possibly intriguing, is that Alex and Tim are the same age, and that, for some reason, Tim missed two years of school. We know that Tim ran away and was missing for two "somethings" until discovered at Rosswood. Clearly days or weeks are the most likely, but it seems strange they'd redact that (although lots of strange stuff was redacted). It's possible his severe problems are because he was missing for two years.

Secondly, is it possible that the Brief Operative Progress Note is more recent (the paper is in better quality) and is referencing Tim coming in with a broken leg? I bring this up because it is not entirely redacted as Jay claims, but we can see that under the section "wound" "clean" is checked.

Just realized...

The face isn't masky, hoody, or skully...

Clearly something more elaborate is going on...

THis might work, but even though Alex dropped a freaking rock on Tim's leg, would that really require any kind of operation/require an operative report if it was just a splint/cast that they put on him? (Splint most likely, since he was walking around with it instead of crutches...)

I've never broken a limb, so I don't know.

It depends on how bad it's broken. In some cases he'd just get a cast and wait for a while. I mean he wouldn't because he'd go all Masky, but you know what I mean. In Tim's case, surgery might have been necessary. Apparently, Jay immediately recognized Tim's leg was broken, and that's not a good sign.

It should be noted that the earliest January 10th after Tim's leg was broken was after the seven months, but two days before Tim broke into Jay's hotel room. The later one would be after Jay saw Tim come out of the antique store, but before this season started.

If a bone is fractured/broken in several places it can require surgery to set the bones. I don't know if Alex brought that concrete block down hard enough to cause multiple breaks, because(ironically enough) the tibia and femur can be as strong as concrete themselves.

I just really doubt that Tim would be able to be on the chase so soon after a surgery, especially if the date is meant to be 1/10/11. But who knows, it's so convenient to his chronological appearance to Entry 33, that maybe it's what they're going for? Unless Masky had the ability to numb pain, I just don't think that Tim would of been on his feet (in control of himself or not) so soon after an operation.

Something interesting Jay overlooked at 2:29. You can see a number of checkboxes under "Neuro status," and while "Conscious" is checked as opposed to un- or semi-conscious, "Alert" remains unchecked. Why? Well, it says he was oriented to person and place (aware of who and where he is), but not time. He didn't know when it was.

I'm not sure what that signifies, but it's interesting.

Also, have we ever seen Tim with glasses?

He could have contacts now. Wouldn't be surprised.

Also, opening the door for more Doctor Who Theories.

Even if Tim had surgery though, the only way I could see it being significant is if:

A) It proved beyond doubt that Tim could not have been up and about at a certain point in the series. This would imply two Maskies, which would cause all kinds of crazy implications. Like that whole "the twins" thing.

B) It was some serious damage, like to his brain. Which might have other complications.

C) One of those "Operator was a doctor" theories came true, or "Operator likes to "operate" on children" became true. Like if something The Operator did caused serious damage to Tim, such that he needed legit surgery.

Furthermore, the lack of orientation to time just seems to be more proof that The Operator was involved. That implies that the "2 ___" was an extended amount of time, at least weeks, and that The Operator then memory-wiped Tim, either purposefully or as an implicit result of contact. I mean, he was found in Rosswood Park, so that alone is enough to say "Operator was here" but...

Anyway, that's pretty much exactly what happened to Jay, so I'm inclined to believe that's the explanation.
