I always felt as though The Operator was manipulating the doorways to make them into portals to send his victims through both space and time.

Like in Entry #23, Jay is seen going through the doors in Brian's house, and it suddenly turns to night, and then he suddenly goes into that underground "basement of doom."

However, in Entry#72, they only traveled through time:
First, when they came back into the house after taking those pages, it was suddenly in the mid-afternoon, and when they entered the basement, it suddenly turned to night.

Sorry if this was already proven and I'm just reiterating the obvious, but I'm just confused about this whole "4th dimensional" talk.

Okay, guys-- we're dealing with the Operator, a supernatural being-- science doesn't apply to it. Derp.

There is a metaphysical tradition that time is a whole rather than a series of events. According to this theory, all times coexist; somewhere Alexander is still ruling Persia, Washington is crossing the Delaware, Armstrong is walking on the moon, and our descendants are doing unimaginable things in what to us is an unknowable future. From the Operator's viewpoint, all these things may be happening simultaneously. It's as if he were standing on the hub of a wheel watching the spokes spin around him. He sees two ants clinging to one spoke, and, just for shits and giggles, picks them up and puts them on another spoke.

Just a thought experiment.
