 You gotta be joking..

Come on am I the only one pissed off at tim? we have it confirmed that Tim brought it to everyone. It's been using tim for his whole life, he learned to "control it" and just wants apologys? come on I'm gonna go ahead and say I'm with alex on this one. Alex was going to kill him self after he killed Patient zero. So much pent up rage in this episode... so many confirms and was I the only one who thought OOG that Brian was smirking a little bit? Everyone dies around Tim and he didn't even let them know from the beginning. Tim is THE liar, and he should have opened up to Jay, who knows Jay could still be alive, and if your reading this and upset that I'm saying Jays dead, get off the bandwagon. also if we could get the code busters from TTA vids to de construct this, there were some subliminal things in this one for sure.

TLDR: Tim's a terrible friend, Alex was right, Brian smirked OOG, Code busters needed asap,and F tim. Evil or Very Mad

Wow. A fantastic entry, and if it is the final one then it went out on a high. I never expected us to get all the answers, and I actually think the series would be better off keeping much of them a mystery (Such as The Operators origin) even if I would love to know just what is up with totheark and just who he/they are.

The way I took the final scenes, with Tim dropping that knife, indicated he was dead. We will just have to wait and see...

Well, I think shock has already been expressed, so I'll just jump right into speculation.

Can somebody figure out what was being said around 9:30 ish?

Who did Alex forget to kill? I can't quite tell if Tim accused Alex of killing Amy or asked if he did. It would be weird that Alex was so conflicted about killing an old friend from college all through Season 2 before Entry 49, but killed Amy so quickly. Doesn't add up. If anybody is alive, I'd say either
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Amy or Jessica.
Remember, totheark said "she's out there". In the past, I've always said that Jessica must be alive, but with Alex saying he killed her, I'm willing to consider that the coded message referred to Amy. Until I see the corpses though, I will maintain this: a female character is alive.

Looks like Tim has been aware of the Operator from the beginning. I admit it: I was wrong. I thought he was unwitting. Still, I don't think he intended to spread the Operator, or even realized it could spread. He was an emotionally stunted kid who had little understanding of what was happening.

Ultimately, I blame Alex second and Tim first. If Tim could have shed some light on what was going on, this might not have happened. But Tim didn't lure people into danger on purpose. That's all Alex.

And what the Hell is up with The Operator symbol & doll? Just the random actions of crazy people? Okay, fine, then why are there so many Operator symbols in the middle of nowhere? Does Alex just go out to Rosswood at night & draw them? But then what about that random one on the pavement that he ran away from? Who drew that?

Quote:
#2. The Operator's very primary existence is confirmed as some type of "disease". Alex states Tim brought it to him, and Alex even confirms he knows how to stop it. Maybe alex's goal was to kill everyone, then himself to end the Operator's existence. Instead he instructs Tim to do so. Question is will Tim actually do that.


"I don't think that's how modern medicine actually works."

So if The Operator is a "disease" & Tim learned how to "block it out," then a more accurate interpretation would be that it jumped to Alex, possibly because Alex let it get to him, & he spread it. Well, actually, he didn't so much "spread it" as kill people. It largely left Jay alone, unless he was in Rosswood or Alex was around. It also didn't jump straight from Tim to Brian, so yeah, something's not adding up, there.


Well look at this way-Brian may of been the Op's primary target in the past, also Tim. However neither were aggressive in the style of Alex. Tim stated he didn't want a gun and brought a small knife to a gun fight. Alex had no problem being aggressive since the beginning-hence why the beginning season of MH focused on the OP stalking Alex to recruit him since Tim could inherently stop the influences.

Funny you should mention that. I just made an account to start joining in on the discussion (little late, I know), and I couldn't help but notice something no one else has said in here.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Anyone notice how Tim took that medicine in the middle of the video, around... 9:08? I can't get a good screenshot, the compression and quality is just too low without some sort of enhancement software, but it looks to me (and sounds, hear the rattle?) that there is definitely a good bit of pills left in that container. How many did he take?

All of them.

I'm honestly believing, if Tim is dead at the end, and the whole throwing up thing? It might have been an overdose. Now, of course I know it takes a little longer than 4 minutes for drugs to kill you, but this is the Operator we're talking here. Might have sped time up? Who knows? Just something I thought I'd point out.

Ok so I believe there is a ton to dissect regarding this entry especially considering all the teleportation and what not that occured but I'll focus on what happens at the end (beginning at around 10:30)

I believe Tim stabs Alex at 10:37. We can see the knife in Tim's hand as he swings up and I believe this is when Tim stabs and gives the killing blow to Alex.

Operator then shows up, presumably angry/upset (or maybe hungry) because his proxy is dying and lays out his fury on Tim, which causes Tim to collapse.

This leads to the sequence where we just see their feet. This just seems like them struggling, Tim due to the Operator, Alex due to the stabbing. It really doesn't seem like they're fighting eachother it more seems like Tim tries to charge at TO and he stops him.

We already saw Tim run out of pills earlier in the entry so I think he was just seizing and that is why he is covered in Alex's blood when we next see him.

From what I hear, Alex says "This isn't over. You see how it spreads? It needs them alive. You have to kill them, and then yourself.". Now I'm certain of everything except the "it needs them alive" bit but I can't think of what else it could say. This leads me to believe that Alex is at least trying to stop TO. Whether this is TO controlling him or making him think that I do not know but I do think Alex believes that he is in the right.

at 12:16 we get the old fashioned distortion, Tim falls and we see that Alex has vanished from beside his pool of blood (presumably taken by TO).

The rest of the video is then Tim either laughing or crying before passing out on the stairs.

These are just what I believe ended up happening. I'm hoping a bit of a timeline for the end might help some discussion.

Some. I can hear clips from Entry #85 "You're the reason any of this happened"

Tim's overdosed before in #65 or something, which similarly only made him pass out a few minutes later

Also worthy to note I suppose but he promised Jay he wouldn't do that again in a video around #69

Okay, this time Alex didn't say "gone", he said "dead". I think this is their way of telling us the ultimate fate of all the characters, just like they said they would.

At 6:15 he says, "Everyone else is gone." He later clarifies that he meant "dead" -- at 10:10 -- but that only confirms what the expression means to him.

A violent stabbing death just a week after some schoolgirls violently stabbed another girl because Slenderman told them to do it. This show's great.

Man, I haven't posted in ages. This seemed like an ideal time to. This feels fairly final, but without text over a shot of someone driving, I'm not going to believe it's the end.

Personally, I still believe the Ark is where Bruce's body ended up. I think it's also where we briefly saw Brian.

I don't think there is an Ark. I think that was a delusion of Brian's tortured mind.


I really hate the "it was just crazy people doing crazy things!" plot excuse.

Quote:
The knife thing. Jay had it first, Tim (as Masky) took it from him in #18, Jay got it back in #35, and Tim took it again in #77. So, Jay's camera and Jay's knife in the end. Go symbolism.


Oh yeah.

Quote:

I think the smirk was intentional, referring to Alex's line, "Wipe that smug grin off of your face." Apparently, Brian now constantly smiles.

I imagine he was just being a dick.

I was just paraphrasing 8-Bit Theater. Tim's downed all of the pills before. It didn't kill him.

He didn't really forget, he tried several times. And even as a quip, Alex has also tried & failed to kill Jay, Tim, & Brian. But maybe Tim isn't counting them because they're dead NOW?

I found this audio after I sped up the distortion right before Tim falls through the floor. It sounds like "Please, make him stop."
