 		If Alex was muttering to Jay "don't follow me," and thought Bruce was Jay, didn't Jay get Bruce killed?

Just a thought.

Also, I think it proves that Alex is doing this against his control. You can hear him whisper "Don't follow me", referring to Jay. Jay is still his best friend, and he doesn't want to kill him, but Alex is now under control of the Operator (who is of course operating him).

That's why he's called the Operator. Because he can make you do things you don't want to do.

That is why Alex is fighting against this feeling to murder his best friend, but couldn't stop himself. Lucky for Jay, Bruce took the hit.


I agree with this a lot. Alex is literally killing people for the Operator. Maybe Alex still videotapes himself so that Jay may be able to determine why he did what he did, so long as Jay has all of the video--not just what looks like murder a la #49.

Me too. It makes it sound like Alex was walking against his will to the tunnel, TO expecting Jay to follow and have Alex kill him. Jay leaves, however, and Alex, unable to control his body only hears someone behind him and thinks it's Jay, to which he desperately yells that he shouldn't have followed him. He notices immediately that's it's not Jay though, but since TO is controlling his body he must've thought something along the lines of "well it's not him but a snack is always good", which is why Alex doesn't stop and kills Bruce.

And then, for whatever reason, TO decides to be a little bit more assertive and through Alex (I'm thinking he gains more 'control' in this plane the more people he abducts?) calls Jay to meet him in the park the next day.

But why is Jay so important? Cause he knows too much?

Okay, at 3:18, exactly halfway through, NaN:NaN.

Wiki: Not A Number and lots of math. Also, "For example, 0/0 is undefined as a real number, and so represented by NaN; the square root of a negative number is imaginary, and thus not representable as a real floating-point number, and so is represented by NaN; and NaNs may be used to represent missing values in computations."

Neat. If it's not intentional, they made Youtube shit brix.


That's interesting. Uploaders CAN do things with the progress bar thing, like with the Nyan Cat video.


But after cruising through subscriptions and poking other videos in the exact middle, it looks like a weird Youtube thing rather than a MH thing. Ah well, it was interesting while it lasted.

 		I like the idea that Alex knows what he is doing, but isn't able to stop it. It would explain: He is deliberately not try to find Amy, because he doesn't want her pulled in. He pitched a fit to Jay to get him to back off and go away, because he knew what would happen if he stuck around.

Since we are all pretty much concluding with very similar theories, how about a somewhat new question?

Does Alex a killing a random, possibly innocent, person — and TTA attacking Alex, make TTA's intentions good instead of the popular belief that they are an evil group of psychopaths?


Well more recent entries have shown that TTA is anti-Slendy--they try to kill Alex, Operator shows up, they book it. In season 1 it was theorized by a few that Timasky(who was considered to be TTA by many) was pro-Slendy, since Masky takes Jay out of his room presumably to meet him, and TTA had footage of Operator messing with Jay.

If what you're describing is correct, it gives TO a much more malevolent and intelligent feeling... And that is fucking terrifying.

 		Just thought of something... assuming slenderman eats Bruce... how?... He had no visible mouth. If he doesn't eat Bruce and possibly Amy what the hell does he do... *thinks of stuff with tentacles*

Explain:



If you didn't notice, it's raining in 29. Thats why the blood is flowing out of the tunnel, too! Therefore, this 29 does not take place the same day, and the rock only slays one person.

Did Alex kill that guy by choking him or by knocking his head on the floor until he passes out? I just find it strange that he doesn't try to move.


Well if you don't breathe for a while you'll pass out, but not die--ever hear of that weird game that kids play where they choke themselves with a belt or something and then pass out such that the belt comes undone? A few people do die from it, but to actually kill someone I think you need to continue choking them for a while after they've passed out.

I've GOT IT! Alex chokes the dude into submission, then that weird sound is the Operator saying "FINISH HIM!", so Alex goes for his signature fatality, the giant rock.


I would prefer not to see a real time xray as that rock comes down on him.

 		I caught that distortion of the Operator in color at 2:35 if anyone's interested as well. Sorry about the size.

The Operator does not have tentacles.

Of course once we get back to the present, Jay is fair game too.
I wouldn't be completely shocked if our dear narrator doesn't make it out of this one.


Not necessarily. Someone else would have to take over the Youtube channel or else TTA would have to post the conclusion. If Jay is dead he can't upload videos, and if he can't upload videos we don't get to see them unless someone else does (like TTA?). He also can't really have them on another channel (Jessica's or Brian's or Tim's or whatever) that hasn't been authenticated as an official channel in the storyline before Jay's death, because after his death he won't be around to point us to it.


That would be a really interesting ending, Jay and Alex, maybe even Tim (and Brian?) dying, all the people who know about the operator (including any others) and TTA posting some kind of epilogue.


I think it would be interesting but not very workable. TTA would have to do a complete 180 in form of videos for us to get any kind of coherent overall theory or idea of what actually went down.

Just think how this forum would handle it, hahaha.

 		Why does everyone think 29 has to be Bruce's blood?

I think that in 50 Alex will take Jay to that spot and try to kill him. Jay will kill Alex. It will be Alex's blood there. Just wait and see.
