Random theory time!
Something in Noah's house is keeping the Collective out (or at least stopping them from controlling him). It seems to me anytime he leaves it for extended periods of time he gets controlled and/or mega-fucked with. However it's not very often that something happens to him in there. Would explain why they need monitoring devices when they're all powerful and why Slendy chased him out of the house that one time.

That makes a lot of sense actually. Maybe there is something about the house that protects him?

Observer's been in the house a few times though.

Banging on the door in the last Livestream and ninja-ing behind him with the shit-eating grin on his face in Several Months of Hell.

Speaking of livestreams, anyone want to start up a betting pool on how long it will take before he calls himself Adam this time? He's gone 2 for 2 so far, let's see if he can pull off the hat trick.

Well, if you remember the livestream when "INTERRUPTION" was forcibly aired, SOMEONE knocked at his bedroom door multiple times when he was supposed to be alone. So maybe his ROOM is a safe haven, but his house is open game I think. (Also, The Observer and Slendy chased him out of his house when Noah shot Slendy.)

Several Months of Hell was in a hotel room if I remember correctly.

I don't mean completely keeping out, but it seems more shit has went down when he wasn't in the house. Yeah sure somebody might have knocked on his door and taken a picture or two, but that doesn't compare to him getting kidnapped, time/space warped, and one of the members showing up 5 feet from him.

Poor Noah. Dem feels. Guy is at the end of his rope. Even looking forward to being happy like The Observer.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
OOG-wise, he's telegraphing the shit out of the fact that it won't end. Between the hidden messages in the twit pics and this 12 minute rant on how he's fucked, there's no way Noah dies. Twot plist incoming, it was super effective.

Speaking on a production level, this was a bit unnecessarily long. It could have been condensed to about 3 - 4 minutes easily and not been anywhere near as melodramatic. There's a reason you never see 13 minute crying scenes in movies. Because even for professional actors, it's fucking hard to do. By the end, it's a paper-thin illusion of genuine emotion. I love you to death, Adam, and your acting has increased tenfold since the start of the series, but soliloquies are not your strong point. Especially with nothing else going on in the video. With a live stream coming up, most of this probably could have been held over for there.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Generally speaking, yeah I agree. Long videos are great in my book, but it did seem a tad long at over 12 minutes. To be fair, in making this video, Noah's not gonna be like "Well, better make sure I don't repeat myself in different ways over and over and better make sure off the bat I know what I'm gonna say" A long video, to me at least, makes sense from his perspective.

I can't say I didn't enjoy the video, but ehh. For whatever reason, it didn't resonate as much, though it had its good parts(dat "see you soon, Milo"). The video did veer onto the side of, as you said, "paper-thin illusion" at times, but ehh. If anything, I feel like this video improves tremendously based on a) what happens during the livestream(if Noah dies, this video takes on a whole lot more meaning to me as a viewer) and b) going through all the previous videos. For me at least, it's hard to really recall ALL that has happened to Noah and, as such, a refresher run-through of past videos would leave fresh in my mind that extent of Noah's problems and isolation, certainly moreso than I can just recall from memory. Looking back at those past videos, you get a new perspective, knowing that it's all leading up to this moment of despair and acceptance of sorts.

Again though, that was in a hotel. XD

So you're right to an extent. Pretty much anywhere he goes he can't escape them, but it does happen more often out of the house.

This is a good point. As far as I can remember they've never actually touched him while he's in the house they've only done stuff to freak him out (maybe in an attempt to get him to leave).

i feel your pain, i thought i would see the gray friendly font in the end but one problem, the whole thing was black and gray. yet both twitpics that contained gray friendly font, were on a white background.

Obligatory final frame



i noticed that both clock hands are on the 4 which i guess references Noah's B-day.


Or it could be following the "four is death" thing like in mh, but I haven't noticed that in any previous tt videos so i guess there's no point in bringing it up

This was the first time I really felt any proper empathy towards Noah, I did get a little choked up about 6 minutes in. Adam's acting has really improved as the series has gone on, and that's really helped.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
What with the length of the video and the creepy-ass twitpics and everything, I can kind of sense that he won't die in the end, but hopefully it will make for an exciting episode. I look forward to seeing the livestream. If this ends up being the last episode, I will probably become depressed and smoke pot. This series has been brilliant. And if there's any more of those sketchy account-hack things, that will be amazing. We haven't had any of those in a while.


All I can say is, I can see that this is about to get good.

I'm also hoping for another account hack.
I find the Observer to be a far more entertaining Formspring host than Noah.

The way Noah keeps painting up Mary Asher as this big, crazy bitch makes me wonder if OOG Adam is trying to get us to question exactly how bad she really is. Maybe John Fletcher and Robert WERE up to no good, or in league with The Collective. Also, I wonder if Milo is really as much of an innocent victim as Noah seems to think.

I like how the 4 on the eye is IIII rather than IV like it should be.

11/11 Love it

Hmmm. I wonder if that's a hint towards anything actually. Most clocks use IIII instead of IV.
