At around 0:38 - 0:40, when the camera freaks out, if you pause at the right time you can see what looks to me like a bed on the floor. Like the one Hoody sat on in Entry #68.
I don't know.

I think you're mistaken.
That white bit was always there, it only popped up because the brightness suddenly shifted.

I am pretty sure the Made me a liar means Alex is alive, It implies he wasnt able to hold his promise, and thus is a liar.


I agree with this. I feel the entry states that while he is a liar, everything is 'fine' and still going according to his plan. "HE WILL PAY" means that Alex's death is still very much a part of his grand scheme.

There may be a deeper significance to "NOTHING'S ON MY MIND", relative to amnesia caused by the sickness, and perhaps about Hoody's identity in general, but not much of what I can find inferred.

The nothing's on my mind thing actually reminds me of the Odyssey.

In the Odyssey, Odysseus blinds the cyclops. Odysseus then tells the cyclops his name is "Nobody" so that when the cyclop's buddies come along and ask who blinded him, they cyclops yells "nobody"! Thus his friends don't believe him and go home.

The reason I bring this up is because nothing might have a different meaning. Nothingness is a scary thought for many people and the way totheark uses it makes it seem like nothing actually is a thing.

He doesn't say. I am not worrying about anything. He says "I worry about nothing." Nothingness is always on his mind. But who knows, Hoody may just be some folk song writer.

The dot sequences that appear between 28-32 seconds in look a lot like Braille. I'm trying to work out what it says, but I'm not good with this kind of thing.

That face in the bottom left corner at 0:15 honestly doesn't look familiar to me. It doesn't seem to resemble anyone we've seen in MH so far. Actually, when I first saw it I actually thought it was the Mona Lisa, lol.

Not sure if this was pointed out yet, but at 0:30 there's the footage from the last entry with Hoodie turning out the lamp. Thought that was kind of interesting.

The fact that at the end the message asks "have you made me a liar?" is interesting. Who is "you"? Is it Alex, and TTA is wondering how Alex has been able to survive his assassination attempt? Or is "you" Hoodie? That would imply that TTA and hoodie are in fact separate people. The fact that it goes on to say "or is he gone?" seems to imply that the "you" is not Alex at all. I think the TTA=Hoodie theory is starting to be a little less certain. Confused

And what was that landscape from? Rosswood?

It could, but if Alex isn't dead, the operator isn't gone and everything is not back to normal then he's already a liar for saying everything's fine.

That's a very good point, I think the "Have you made me a liar or is he gone? part could be a genuine question of Hoody's "boss" asking Hoody if he got the job done. But the overall message of the video is it doesn't matter, because I know I will get him eventually. I'm not scared. Very interesting

My take was that Hoody has no idea what The Operator intends to do with Alex, & therefore is asking, "Have you made me a liar? (by rescuing him) Or is he gone? (did you kill him?)" The Operator is obviously not going to answer back, so he is musing to himself.

You wanna tell me what the Hell that person was even trying to say?

Also, not really related, but for the person who mentioned it:

Interesting...but doesn't quite make sense. Hoody knows that Alex and Operator are deeply connected, Hoody saw alex after Operator tried to protect him, when he came and asked where tim and jay was, and Hoody knows that Operator could have killed alex at any time...so why now? It's not like Hoody and oppy are aligned I think that's very clear. I think someone being higher than Hoody makes more sense than that.

I really really loved this video. One of my favorite from TTA in a long time.

I concur with the interpretation of "Have you made a liar
or is he gone". If TTA has two members, and Hoody's the one who does the dirty work (which would be killing Alex in this case), the mind of TTA wants to know how that went.

I also really love how lyrical the words were.
