Vinnie, what have you done? Shocked

A few things

1. Towards the end, the video froze. Was that mean or was it done on purpose?

2. What was the song that was playing?

3. Guests? What guests?

4. What photo was HABIT holding? What was with the rose?

5. Why was Evan wearing such as stupid outfit?

1. That was intended I think.
2. Not sure. Not music savvy. Sad
3. That's the mystery (dun dun DUN)
4. Vinnie's girlfriend that was killed.
5. Vinnie found it beautiful?

On another note...GAAAAHHHH!!! When I saw the purple in the video I cringed. We're in for a ride. Happy it's continuing though.

I found the song. It's "Baby Götterdämmerung" by Monster Magnet.

Anyway, that was an awesome video. Anyone think HABIT will be here to stay again?

The video freezes around the last 20 seconds, i wonder if it was in purpose. And i think we should take the statements they tell to eachother when the screen turns purple.

Didn't the screen only turn purple when HABIT was speaking in demonic-voice, though? Basically his own form of Slender-distortion.

The "stick-in-the-mud" may refer to Firebrand from TribeTwelve, a proxy who has been set free by HABIT, who Firebrand described as "a loathsome entity with mutual interests".

The "guests"? Well, it's that time of year again. Slenderverse crossover time!

The "stick-in-the-mud" was in reference to Slenderman. He's called him that before, and it sorta makes sense why HABIT would free Firebrand now. Seeing as he says how Slendy "doesn't know how to have fun," HABIT's introducing a bit of anarchy to see what Slendy will do.

Alright, that was amazing. While im waiting for the wiki article transcript to be finished so i can dig a little deeper here are a few general notes.

1) The one hour and 7 minutes is not an accident, must be running with HABITs theme of the number 7
2) That knife must have some significance. Of all the knives that Evan owns, he chose one that would have trouble killing a steak dinner? I find this hard to beleive.
3) I don't know what the song that plays is, nor can i make out any lyrics, honestly im just surprised/depressed it wasn't more Sinatra
4) Im not sure who that was a picture of, as a matter of fact, i dont remember Vinnies Girlfriend, it has been too long, but i suppose she has suffered the least. I assumed it was steph but she did suffer alot.
5) Not sure why no one has mentioned this yet, but at points we hear HABITs voice without Evan opening hs mouth, and sometimes his voice doubles up. Anyone care to take a swing at the significance?
6) He refers to the Rake and Slenderman as his "friends" without a hint of sarcasm, hinting that they are in league somehow
7) HABIT's going out to have "some fun" Who left is there to kill besides random people on the street? Perhaps the seven trials will draw to an end soon, maybe people will soon find it difficult to "Keep [their] bodies breathing"
8] The other rooms are for guests? i wonder what guests, as i've stated there are not many targets left, maybe Corenthal but he seems to have some kind of immunity. (perhaps Firebrand? though i don't wanna be "that guy, pretty sure HABIT was only a cameo, i dont see a crossover in the near future personnaly)
9) Video freezes for the last 28 seconds (27 since it skips 10:24) I have scanned this part high and low. With headphones up to max i can't hear a thing, and the frame has nothing of significance that i could see.
10) HABIT is such a badass.



EDIT: 11) just saw an interesting comment on Reddit regarding this episode. Perhaps this is time travel and Vinnie is the cameraman from the other vids. However i find that unlikely judging by the shaodws we've seen on the cameraman it definatly looks non-human and i doubt Vinnie would stand idly by while Jeff died. Not to mention that HABIT said that he makes him sick, and the cameraman certainly doesnt act human... you know what, forget i wrote this, it was an interesting theory but i think it is just too far fetched. Oh well, thats why i write these here, to help parse them out.

It wasn't until this video that I realized how broken Vinnie actually is. He just isn't there anymore. He's almost as bad as Evan.

EDIT: I just saw an interesting theory on reddit. Rather than summarize, I'll just quote it:
DeadEndDreaming wrote:
Sometimes I can't shake the feeling that the EMH guys live in another... timezone is the right word I guess. It's like the flow of time in their world is a lot slower than ours.

I allready thought about this while watching the l'esprit de l'escalier video. At one point, Evan screamed at Vinnie: "Do I look like I just spent the last fucking, month, murdering everyone I love?"

The last month? Something doesn't fit here. Look at the date, when the videos were uploaded while Evan was inHABITed:

Dead end with a Pulse 31.03.2012
MOVING IN 09.10.2012
Very Happy 09.10.2012
Next 24.12.2012

Now the vidos while Evan wasn't inHABITed anymore:

WAKE UP 23.02.2013
Isolation 26.02.2013
l'esprit de l'escalier 06.03.2013

So... the last month? More like the last YEAR!

My theory would be now: Vin and Evan try to summon the HABIT, but HABIT breaks free. And while he is on the loose, he releases Firebrand out of the Administrators custody. While this allready happened in the TT timeline, it's just about going to happen in the EMH timeline. And that means, we might be able to witness it.

Vinny, at this point, is pretty much broken. Everyone he knows is dead/missing. Evan is there but he's to the point of no recovery. Vin isn't as bad in condition as Evan--he lost an equal amount of friends, except HE killed them. It may have been HABIT, but Evan was still aware of it nonetheless. Notice how in "A summoning" Vinny kinda just stands there, barely responding. You can hear his heavy breathing and his almost crying, but he tries to hide it. See, if Vinny breaks even further it's pretty much the end for everyone, even the fans he doesn't want to disappoint. HABIT would win. End of story. But think of this, what would HABIT do when he wins? Would Evan be possessed...forever? So if Vinny dies, not only does he die, but one of his closets and only friends Evan. He doesn't want to give up on him. He's always sticking up for him, trying to solve the problem. Because he's the only one who can.

I think Dr. C will appear again soon enough. HABIT seems disinterested in him and it might be HABIT's fatal flaw.

Or maybe, Vinny and Evan die and the cycle repeats again, and the fans have to help them remember all the past events and eventually defeat HABIT.

Speaking of defeating HABIT, how would you do it? I'd like to see HABIT beaten but the chances are slim. Maybe the book can tell. Maybe Dr. C wrote instructions in the book to help him. Or maybe even the "jackass employee" was someone who was trying to help Vinny...who knows. There's so many questions in this series I doubt everything will be solved by the end (which is coming soon, according to Jeff's OOG blog). [/quote]

Yeah, it's possible EMH runs on webcomic time.
I mean, people are saying we were supposed to get these videos much earlier, but they were having problems with their equipment. Maybe these videos take place when they were supposed to have been filmed and uploaded.

Also the "jackass employee" was obviously HABIT, who also left the book there and made up those goofy instructions just to troll the boys into making themselves look like idiots.

I mean, how else could the hat that was pictured have been a dead ringer for that purple thing with the tongue hanging out?

Oh Vinny, we told you this was a bad idea. Although HABIT most likely would've come back at some point anyhow. Probably right after Vince and Evan got used to the idea that he was gone for good.

Now, OOG stuff:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
1) HABIT has more, well, character than anyone else IMO. 2) I can tell Evan really likes playing him.

I also recall Vin saying he played the Allan Wake DLC that came out "last week" when it was really more like a couple months...
I don't remember which video this was, though.

Also, Was it just me or was HABIT sporting a bit of the Innsmouth look?
