 		I really like this video, a good example of how less can be more when done right.

I'm thinking the HE IS SEARCHING FOR YOU / ALEX overlay could also mean ALEX, HE IS SEARCHING FOR YOU meaning TO is trying to get back 'in touch' with him.

Jessica at the end (finally a justified OMG JESSICA!) could either indicate she might be at the end of the tunnel, or that she and Tim are people Jay failed to protect.

I also wonder if the water references have anything to do with the alleged weakness of TO regarding water.

 		Just rewatched decay and noticed TTA mentions death there as well when refering to im guessing TO, so the last "watch death" part of this one could be saying to find TO, or look closely at him in the last episode?

That or TTA is saying someone is going to die and wants Jay to watch, if he is refering to Tim then he could be meaning he wants Jay to find Tims chest cam.

Or since both contain footage of the tunnel he could be refering to that as death by the stereotypical tunnel with light at the end.

I will personally dress up like Tim Curry as Doctor Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and do an erotic striptease banjo cover music video of "Rose Tint My World," and post it here for everyone to see.


I've been meaning to do a Frank-N-Furter costume sometime I go to Rocky for like the past ten years, but I keep never doing it. I also need to lose quite a bit of weight first.

Cool. Thanks for doing that. I can't claim to have a particularly good ear, but here are some possibilities I heard:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Eat the Weak One.
Seek the Linked One.
It's the Lint Wall.
Speak La Lingua.
He fell into us.
Please go into to us.

In any case, it definitely sounds like a voice to me, but I can't really make out anything that sounds familiar in the context. It's not like it's Hoody saying, "Hey y'all, it's your buddy Brian, checking in with the latest news from Rosswood." Didn't hear any keywords like "Operator" or "Ark."

Good point. While Jessica's image in this video was strongly associated with the image of the Tunnel, which 64 heavily implied leads to something important, it's possible that her image is just TTA piling on the guilt, adding to the charge of abandonment in the early part of the video. TTA might just be manipulating Jay, trying to get him into a more emotional state so that Hoody can come back with some stimulus, like he did in 61, and Jay will feel like he has to take reckless action, like he did in 62.

 		Yay, new video! I literally haven't read all of the comments yet, but I assume we've already well established that it refers to Alex?

 		Perhaps a crazy thought, but maybe it's Tim abandoning Jay, just not in a literal sense. Halfway through the tunnel Tim just stops and refuses to go further, and if the operator hadn't shown up Jay would have got to the other end. If Tim had agreed to go with Jay then maybe he would have got to the other side in time. As soon as things got interesting Tim bailed on Jay, and it's only the seizure that made it look the other way around.

We've come up with
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
how far are you willing to go
. Current speculation on my part is maybe Jay asked Tim
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
how far he was willing to go into Rosswood
. This audio might have come from Tim's chest camera since it appears it was recording for a bit before Jay started up his own camera.

Who's we? Did I miss a conversation somewhere? Anyway, that's more syllables than I hear, so are you thinking it's sped up? Also, the inflection doesn't sound like a question to me, more like an imperative. I don't know, chalk it up to my aforementioned inadequate ears.

If that is what it says, then I would read it as metaphorical rather than literal geography, that is, TTA addressing Jay. We may be hearing the voice of TTA here. I don't know to what it could refer, since Jay's goals are somewhat nebulous as long as the antagonists are a mystery. Maybe a reference to his desire to find Jessica? Either way, you're right to think that he'll be headed deep into Rosswood.

Oh. "We" is my brother and I. Sorry about that.

To get the most out of that audio, use a pair of headphones. Part of the problem with trying to clean this up is that the spoken words fall into the same general frequency range as the low end in the white noise, and the original is muffled or it was distorted in editing. I'm still trying to dink around with this using Audacity to try to clear it up some. If I can make it any clearer, I'll be sure to post it.

I am 85 percent sure that starting from the last scene where it's the tunnel, on the left under the water a white face/mask gradually appears more and more until the video ends. It vaguely reminded me of the bald albino white face with orange eyes that appeared in a previous TTA video, but i'm not sure


Doesn't look like a face to me - looks like a standing figure to me.

Near the end of that scene it looks to me like a discarded masky mask.

It almost sounds to me like "What are you waiting for?" but with the first word rendered practically inaudible.

Besides, judging from the scale of the water and the "tunnel," that shot is more than likely a drainage culvert in a ditch somewhere and TTA is using it as filler to represent the actual tunnel itself.


For what it's worth, Alex's death tunnel is a culvert. Though it was dry when the boys visited, we've seen it damp before (RIP Bruce).

You can take the shot as a ditch symbolizing the tunnel, but...

Doing things to rattle cages seems to be exactly TTA's MO. There's no indication that he returned alone to the tunnel to get this shot. There's no indication that he got this shot, and didn't swipe it from some Alex footage we haven't seen. But if he did return to the tunnel to get this shot, then we're back to wondering what the water means.

In discussion of earlier entries, someone suggested that water might keep the Operator at bay or off the scent somehow. (In connection with Hoody's rambling return of Jay's camera, I think, and lots of rain and water in TTA videos.)

Gonna preface with I'm in the TTA=Hoody camp.

What I was gunning for was that TTA knows the tunnel is incredibly dangerous and he's not the type to put himself directly in harm's way like that just to poke at Jay.

He did stretch his neck out to jump Alex, but that could definitely be seen as a more "high stakes" sort of scenario. He did have Tim with him, but they both bolted when OP showed up. Seeing as how he knows the tunnel is OP's home turf and also knows Alex is on the loose, he wouldn't have gone back even with Tim. Their masks may offer them some small measure of power or protection, but if they were completely immune while wearing them, they would have brained Alex.

If the tunnel footage is indeed THEE tunnel, it is definitely scrap Alex footage or chest cam footage after Tim got slendynapped. The footage is incredibly saturated, but the bright light at the end of the tunnel has been pretty iconic thus far and it's just a small sliver. The dimensions of everything in the shot (scale ratio of the water foreground to the tunnel and landscape background, small sliver of light at the end of the tunnel) just don't look the way they should if TTA was using on-site footage.

I'm still sitting on the fence in regards to the water=ward theory.
