What if, the big sister didn't take Cindy, but Lynch did? What if, he took her to give Mark the motivation to work hard on these puzzles, and lose his life and sanity in them as he seems to slowly be doing, and Lynch is manufacturing things like the sand castle and lunchbox in order to spur Mark on give him hope that Cindy's alive and their is still a chance of saving her, all so that Lynch can get to Rapture.

That's the thing I don't understand about the Big Sister being a little sister rescued by Jack: if Jack rescues the little sisters in 1960 and they're all 7-8 years old, in 1968 the Big Sister is no more than 16. So Mark got his ass handed to him by a 16 year old girl. Granted she probably had a bunch of adam and was wearing her suit, but still, it's a little odd, you'd think she'd be older.


Well, you remember the big daddy making place in bioshock 1? They took people, grafted their skin and organs into armoured suits, cut out their voice boxes and replaced them with ones that make farting noises and must of implemented some kind of gland that released a little sister attracting pheremone, presumably making the big daddies sort of brainwashed and hollow remnants of the men they once where, but ultimately harder to kill and much more formidable opponents in a fight (as we all know from playing the first game) well what I think is that that is basically what the little sister that Jack saved did to herself when she returned to Rapture, BUT rather removing the free thinking aspect of things, she left her personality and humanised parts of the brain intact and left herself the ability to use ADAM, like the prototype big daddy that you play as in the second game, rather than just putting on a suit like Jack did in Bioshock 1.

I dunno... I think she's put on a suit. I think both the suit and the Big Sister are powered by Adam.

Mark saw the Big Sister take Cindy. Also, listen to the record, all the way to the end.

So let me just get this story straight. Lutwidge has been to rapture and is leaving clues so that someone else can get there? These two people happen to be Lynch and Mark, Lynch can't figure them out so he's nudging Mark to figure them out so he can find his daughter? correct?

btw, great work guys. I wish I coulda helped.

Almost. Lynch wants to go to Rapture himself. He's a con-man, has probably been told about Adam, and wants the power. He's nudging Mark because he was unable to get at/figure out the rest of the puzzles. Once Mark figures them all out, Lynch is hoping to swoop in and get his answer, so to speak.


Oh I gotcha. Thanks.

Didn't know he saw her get taken, but the voice isn't necessarily hers, it's destorted in that way that other little sister's voices were in the first game. It is a bit of a wild and unlikely theory mind I admit.

It would be one heck of a coincidence that his daughter was taken, and he finds a record saying, "Daddy come find me..." and having it not be his daughter.

General info about Bioshock 2
Interview

I've been reading this for awhile in hopes of finding the answer to the 5x5 puzzle in the music box. Well, just so everyone gets some general info about the game they posted a new video with an interview with Geoff Keighley. Check it out, who knows it may help.

BTW, Cataclysmic and I are also going to go over as many Lewis Carroll poems as we can, and try and find clues as to the White Knight, but we could use a few more pairs of eyes on this one...

Open up a Google. We're scouring through anything of Lewis Carroll's that involves the White Knight, the Red Pawn, etc... Focus on the White Knight.

I'm going to post individual findings in this thread to spark some brain storming. Hope that's ok with the admins.

First off, here's bit's and pieces of the White Knight's Song:

The White Knight's Song

"Who are you, aged man?" I said.
"And how is it you live?"
And his answer trickled through my head,
Like water through a sieve.
He said, "I look for butterflies
That sleep among the wheat:
I make them into mutton-pies,
And sell them in the street.
I sell them unto men," he said,
"Who sail on stormy seas;
And that's the way I get my bread--
A trifle, if you please."

But I was thinking of a plan
To dye one's whiskers green,
And always use so large a fan
That it could not be seen.
So having no reply to give
To what the old man said,
I cried, "Come, tell me how you live!"
And thumped him on the head.

But I was thinking of a way
To feed oneself on batter,
And so go on from day to day
Getting a little fatter.
I shook him well from side to side,
Until his face was blue:
"Come, tell me how you live," I cried,
"And what it is you do!"

Ok, now I'm thinking...

The entire story "Through the looking glass, which Lutwidge is obsessed with is based on a chess game." Theres the Red side and the White side. What is that the white side "seeks"? I figure it's either the Red King. Now lets take a look at who the people in Something in the sea are substituted for chess pieces. We have the red pawn, the red queen, the white knight and the red king.

Red pawn = ?
Red queen = ?
white knight = James Milliard Oakes?
Red king = Rapture/Ryan?
