Well the "farting" noise speed up sounds like distorted audio from Entry #72 where they were talking about the door.
Edit: Found this it isnt the house from 72. It doesnt look like it

I... don't really have a lot of speculation on this, so I'll just give you all what's on my mind, in no particular order.

Someone raised more questions about Entry #61. I always just took it to be this: Hoody stole Tim's pills and filmed it all so that Jay would see him become the Masked Man again and run off. Why? Because Jay would do exactly what he did, and that would get Jay and Tim talking again and eventually working together.

In the Entry #74 thread it was speculated that Tim was trying to use the prospect of a hidden cache of pills to get Hoody to meet them at Tim's house. If that's true, that plan may be shot to hell now. After all, if Totheark is Hoody's version of a "Masky" persona, would he even be interested in the pills now that Totheark is apparently in control again?

Oh yeah, I dunno if that has been mentioned but, the face in the corner looked a lot like Masky's mask to me.

{* kind of looks like a face with a starred out eye. Not so much on here, but with the youtube formatting it does more.

Haven't read any of this topic but here's my theory:


The operator lets off some kind of radiation that ruptures peoples insides (do you feel like drowning = the slow collapse of your lungs. that also fits with the other tta video from season 1 with the lungs being pumped and the water motifs). It also causes seizures, hallucinations, and memory loss.The pills ward off this radiation that's already inside the body, as well as preventing more radiation from entering (for a time). Radiation may also explain the distortion we see, and why other people with the sickness can cause it.


If Tim is telling the truth (which at this point I really doubt since all signs point to him as being the liar tta keeps talking about), then he was never mentally ill. The operator slendernapped him as a child and brought him to rosswood, and everyone thought he ran away and was nuts. His symptoms made them think he belonged in a psych ward when he didn't.


Now if that's true, it means the operator can essentially cause someone to become schizophrenic (almost all the symptoms the operator causes are those of schizophrenia). This would explain why everyone seemingly has two personalities. Even Alex has a good and a bad side from what we can gather, and his bad side is more than likely his "masky" state (his drawings also fit into the schizophrenic behavior)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizophrenia - in case anyone wants proof



Now there's one big question. Who is lying between Tim and Jay. Tim could be lying about remembering things he does as Masky. Jay could be lying about not remembering the things that happen as Masky. Hoody has his own masky state (the tta videos we see), and if he remembers things, than so does Tim. The sickness works the same for everyone.

BUT if Tim is not lying, then this means Alex may actually not remember the things he does in his "masked" state and therefore may be completely innocent after all

Overall though I think all those things are boring plot devices at this point lol

I noticed that too! It must be related to Tim since it was overlaped with a video with him in it.

"nevercured", "lies"?

...This could mean that the pills likely do NOT cure slendersickness. And this means that Tim could be drugging Jay.

That's the most obvious thing this is referring to, in my eyes, at least. Hoody could be taking the pills to avoid them being given out.

Weren't they supposed to just reduce the symptoms of slender sickness?

If Tim was telling the truth.

We can confirm the pills aren't a placebo based on Tim grabbing for them when his seizure comes on, and the fact that he downs nearly a whole bottle when he loses his shit during his masky state in the hospital

They are probably just anti-convulsants to counter schizophrenia. The real question is, why doesn't Alex seemingly need them?

People keep asking what the mask seems to be saying...

I think it is meant to be "saying" what the text on screen is. We first see its mouth move when the words "WHO ARE THE LIARS" appears. At the same time, we hear voice talk. A great many of you seem to be under the assumption that the voice we hear is coming from the mask. I don't think that's it. I think the voices are just the sounds from whatever Entry we are seeing. I'm not sure which entries are being shown in this one, so I can't go back to check, but it seems to me that the mask is just reading out the text, much like a Nintendo character.

As disturbing as this TTA video is, the little face in the corner reminds me of Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff.

Funny thing: "Despite the origin of the term from the Greek roots skhizein (σχίζειν, "to split") and phrēn, phren- (φρήν, φρεν-; "mind"), schizophrenia does not imply a "split personality", or "multiple personality disorder" (which is known these days as dissociative identity disorder)—a condition with which it is often confused in public perception."

Not saying schizophrenia couldn't be the IG intention, just that schizophrenia wouldn't explain everyone seeming to have two personalities.

I always thought that, as of late, Alex is always in his "Masky" state since TO is most likely near him most of the time. Since he's in his "masky" state, he has no need to go to his normal self.
