The thing that struck me most about this episode was the shot of him staring at himself in the mirror. It reminded me of how in movies guys are always giving themselves pep talks in mirrors when they need to make a decision.

But he's not... that I can tell. He appears to be staring at the ceiling above the mirror.

The distortion caused by the fisheye-esque lens on the chest cam made it appear as if he is staring higher up.

...What?

It's not his neck, it's his eyes that are looking up.

I didn't mention anything about his neck.

No, but when people typically talk about looking somewhere, they are looking for which way the head it turned, not the eyes. Especially with individuals with glasses. I can account for the effect of the lens affecting the perception of the neck's position, but not the x/y position of the eyes.

To the right of the closet, directly under the picture or whatever is on the wall...
At 2:46, I clearly see a head and then their upper body.

...That would be Alex.

3. I meant by my comment, I haven't had a "OH SHIT IT'S SLENDY" moment in 20 entries.

You must be exceptionally chill to not have an "OH SHIT IT'S SLENDY" moment in Entry #40.

I definitely saw it... but I just thought it was a different angle of Alex. I'mma go watch again. Also, geeze this thread moves fast.

I thought that was supposed to be Alex, because he was sitting near the door in the previous shot... but wait a minute... who's that in the bed?

Not necessarily, he had the camera on the counter/desk/etc. during the entry.

I thought he was underneath that blanket-blob thing, recording himself sleeping there. I really can't tell though.

I think we should all calm down here...that is clearly supposed to be Alex. The question isn't "who?". The question is, "WHY?"

I think he's waiting for the Operator. Perhaps he's summoned through the drawings?

So, obviously Jay thinks that Alex is being controlled. I also like the idea of the symbols summoning the Operator.

I also enjoyed the throw back to Entry 19, where Masky stands in the corner of Jay's room and teleports him away.

So how about the thought that Alex was summoning Slendy? I think those drawings Alex makes are his way of getting Slendy to do things for him. In this entry he draws the operator symbol multiple times and even writes "operator" and sure enough, the operator himself shows up and takes him away.

Remember back in season one when Jay went to the red tower and found that tape? He investigated that tower because he found "at the tower" written on one of Alex's drawings. Maybe that drawing was some command to the operator, telling him to place that tape up there. Maybe all of Alex's drawings are special commands that tell the operator to do things for him.

I don't know why the operator would be doing things for Alex but it's something to be considered.

Another note about slendy possibly putting that tape in the tower: If I remember correctly, Jay barely made it up that tower and the latter collapsed just as he got that tape. It seems unlikely that anyone could climb that before Jay and still have the latter be in tact. It would make sense if a certain tall friend placed the tape without having to climb the tower.

I agree that this entry reminded me a lot of entry 19 (which is actually the first entry of the series I saw). If we conclude from this entry that Slendy IS teleporting, then can we conclude that Masky/Tim was teleporting too? Even the distortions during the teleporting are very similar. But how did Timmasky get those abilities? Is everyone becoming a minion of the Slenderman and/or dissappeared/spirited away? Do they get powers from the Slenderman?

There isn't anyone in the bed. That's really obvious since the bed is completely flat except where the sheets are folded up.

Did anyone see the door kind of moving a little bit at the very end? It looks like it's almost being effected by some type of air flow or something.

That could be just a shadow moving though.

I like how nobody noticed that the word Operator was finally actually spelled out and associated with the operator symbol. .

That already happened in Entry #11
