My first viewing, I was freaking out too much when Alex pulled the gun, but his whole speech to Jay is a actually pretty revealing. He regrets giving Jay the tapes still, and he admitted it just before he was about to kill them. If Alex was 100% bad to the core, I feel like he wouldn't have said that, or the part about him not wanting to involve Jessica.

All of that makes me think Alex's actions aren't always his own.

Oh god i just realized

Since tim is living semi normally outside of his masked ventures, did he even know HOW his leg got broken?

Has anyone transcribed the audio from when Alex was holding the gun on them? Everyone was talking at once, I couldn't hear what they were all saying.

Also... there's something that's been bugging me for a while.

If Brian survived the events way back in Entry #51 (and if he's Hoodie, then he did), do we have any evidence that the Operator is evil? Could it be that he's an okay guy (or at least neutral), and Alex has been the primary villain of the series all along?

Think about it: The assumption was that Alex was "feeding" people to the Operator, but the Operator has had loads of opportunities to gobble up/murder the entire MH cast.

Seriously, he's had every major character Tranced and at his mercy at least once, and that's just in the events we've seen on camera... but all he's done is erase a few pertinent memories and catch-and-release.

We assumed that Tim chased them out of the hotel in Entry #33 because the Operator was "about to attack," and we also assumed that the Operator had snatched away Jessica... but he'd already just waltzed into Jay's and Jessica's hotel rooms and tranced them both right before #27... and they were still there.

So, if he's eating people or abducting them or whatever, why would he go into their hotel rooms, erase their memories, then just go away and leave them there for weeks, then just decide to come back later? It doesn't fit.

Ergo, something else is going on.

The Operator is playing something way more intricate than anything the Slender Man ever pulled.

I'll read the thread in a second. First notes:
>Masky confirmed for good guy, imo.
>A couple "where's Waldo" moments, not sure if I saw anything. I'll rewatch once I read the thread.
>Tim acting normal might indicate he retains full concious thought as Masky, meaning Masky would be a lot closer to sane then many thought.
>A lot of things were confirmed this entry, maybe even the bullet casing. Still wonder what was in Jessica's safe, but that's pretty much confirmed for Herring.
>The image/audio when Jay attacked TO-Can anybody frame by frame it, and/or analyze the sound?
>A lot of the ship theories just went up in credibility. Jay's not anywhere near as clueless or reckless as he was before.
>Alex is completely, undeniably confirmed for evil.
>Where was Hoodie during all of this?

Wow... just, wow.

Recently, I've seen a lot of people attempt to turn on Marble Hornets. I'm not going to name names, but between the Mythos section on this board and Tumblr, I've seen some unflattering statements made. This entry just shut them all down.

Seriously, I'm so impressed right now. I can't believe how much this series has progressed. That was an incredible season finale. It became immediately clear that this was going to be the last video for awhile, and when I realized this, I knew we were in for one hell of a ride. The memory gap, Rosswood Park, the satchel, the hotel, the safe... it all was effectively wrapped up... and yet a whole new set of questions must be asked.

What the hell are TTA's true motives? Tim absolutely saved Jay and Jessica's lives. I had the biggest smile on my face when he crept up behind Alex. So, we can safely say that he is against Alex and The Operator. I'm not sure whether he's necessarily on Jay's side, but it's more of a "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" type deal. TTA have an ulterior motive, and are seemingly willing to do whatever it takes to reach their goal. We've seen them act hostile towards Jay (Brian's house, the hotel) which leads me to believe his well-being isn't their top priority. The question here is, what is top priority? Revenge against Alex? Destroying The Operator? Both?

And while we're on the topic, WHAT THE FUCK TIM. My brain just shut down when he walked out in his plain attire. I was practically screaming for Jay to approach him, but I suppose that'd just be too easy. I thought his memory could have been wiped as well, but we saw him attack Jay in Masky mode in the hotel... it doesn't add up. And yet, despite the madness of the last two years? He's just strolling down the street, smoking a cigarette, haters gonna hate. Such a good cliffhanger.

Is Alex still alive? I would say absolutely. We heard the gun go off, but that doesn't mean it hit anyone. It definitely didn't kill Tim. I don't think Alex is truly a bad guy. He's definitely an antagonist, but a sympathetic one. Obviously, we don't have all the answers here, but I feel as if he isn't doing this on his own accord. I don't think he's been brainwashed, but The Operator has done something to set this chain of events. I think Alex just wants this to all come to an end so that he can return to normalcy, my biggest piece of evidence being the glimpse we got of his time with Amy. Alex did something to Brian and Tim whilst shooting Marble Hornets. For whatever reason, this put The Operator on the back-burner. But it didn't do this permanently, and so Alex is being forced to do terrible things again. He doesn't like hurting people, and hopes to avoid doing it. This is shown during the famous Bruce entry, where he tries to tell Jay not to follow him. He doesn't want to kill him. We also see this in 52. Alex is frustrated that Jessica got involved, because that's one more mess he has to clean up. It's not something he wants to do, but unfortunately he must do it.

Going back to what I was originally saying here, there's a reason that this is always held as the Slenderman series. I love all of the fantastic work the other series are doing, but no one nails it quite like Troy, Joseph and Tim. I have never been this immersed in a fucking TV show, let alone a web series. I would like to say congratulations on another incredible season. You've had me on the edge of my seat since the first entry, and I literally cannot wait for season three. Brofist.

Um, before I begin. . .

HOLY SHIT! DID JAY TACKLED DOWN THE OPERATOR?! BEST VIDEO ON THE SERIES EVER

Never mind that, Best entry on a Slendy video EVER

Then again, as somebody mentioned earlier, I kind of expected an entry like this. This doesn't mean I am not happy with it. I actually think we needed this sort of entry to tie some loose bits while leading us to Season 3

To those saying that Jay is OoC by tackling Slendy The Operator, imagine yourselves on his place: We begin the video with him having a horrible look (eyebags, terrible hair do, pale even), his best friend wants to kill him, people has been chasing him, he doesn't know if Tim/Masky will help or rape him not, he wants to get out. . . Suddenly, his only ally is about to be raped attacked and you see the "should be" attacker. What would you do? I guess by this point Jay is so tired/angry/frustrated, he says "fuck this!" and tackles him. I guess he has grown (as mentioned) but tired and angry at all this. I guess if he had a gun himself, he would have shot it.

And now, I guess Season 3 would be, not only finding Jessica and Tim, but the reunion of the Marble Hornets staff. It's been :

*Season 1 - Alex poofs, Jay goes to look for him
*Season 2 - Jay doesn't trust Alex, wants to find WTF happened
*Season 3 - Jay now needs to find the MH cast to save them from Alex

Alex might be a 'host' but I think he's too corrupted by the Operator or, just like Alex when he tackled the Op, too tired himself to keep up. He just to end it, in any way possible. In other words, Jay may be becoming the new Alex, and TTA is warning him not to. It's a vice circle here. . .

The only one benefited here is the Operator, who noms noms on their souls, regardless of how f*cked up they are.
