2024-06-12 14:25:55 +0000 UTCI may or may not annotate the transcripts with theory notes 🫣
Xan
2024-06-12 14:25:19 +0000 UTC😂😂 That’s a great point; I didn’t put together that his not liking to be stared at is probably an indication of a weakness
Xan
2024-06-12 14:24:06 +0000 UTCMy guess is she keeps waking up in random places.

2024-06-11 22:09:46 +0000 UTCif im celia at this point I'd be getting dressed up to go out before I go to bed

2024-06-06 23:51:28 +0000 UTCI'm not saying my brain works exactly like the woman's in that case but I'm also NOT not saying that ETA: The static/glitches when people lie is very interesting. Has happened a few other times, but heard it again here with Teddy. LOVE all the little hints RQ are throwing in, great work as always!

Kate McKiernan
2024-06-03 23:25:59 +0000 UTCYup yup do you recon it’s the og Jonah? Like I’m guessing his body was kept in the institute when he body snached and cause his current body (90s) has died in the fire, his power when back to his og body?
DamianJ
2024-06-03 02:01:04 +0000 UTCOoooh you could be onto something! Something about this def brought up aspects of the fearpocalypse……. interesting
Axis S
2024-06-03 01:59:37 +0000 UTCOhhh shit !!! Archivist monster released from Magnus institute in TMP universe (by Sam and Alice) who has power of pseudo resurrection for answering cause of death / to cause them to relive their death repeatedly…. Something?!
Axis S
2024-06-03 01:55:55 +0000 UTCShe seemed to have genuine fear about being spied on so I thought this was TMP universe version of Georgie?
Axis S
2024-06-03 01:54:14 +0000 UTC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Axis S
2024-06-03 01:53:25 +0000 UTCMaybe the original monsters in TMP universe are things/people that are fueled by their own fear and that becomes some warped weird power // or maybe post TMA apocalypse things that felt few the most became powerful
Axis S
2024-06-03 01:50:43 +0000 UTCohh, i was thinking she was sleepwalking, not teleporting, but i recall she did mention "weird physics stuff: time travel, other dimensions, teleportation", so it totally could be. i actually checked today, and it looks like the walk from london to oxford would take over a day, so it's most likely either teleportation or she's taking public transport in her sleep (assuming she actually went to oxford)

2024-06-02 04:14:36 +0000 UTCFavorite episode so far! I love how casually it links back to the fact that Jon successfully saved everyone by featuring Georgie in that tidbit. Poor Georgie was the only character who wasn’t aware of how the spider watches everything. Can’t wait for next week

2024-05-31 03:50:07 +0000 UTCBonzo is many things, but he is not unstoppable. He fears being looked at. *racks the slide on my dusty tome labelled CEASELESS WATCHER*. The beast can be killed

2024-05-30 14:18:15 +0000 UTC!!!!! Well then!!!
Keegan A
2024-05-30 00:29:30 +0000 UTCUnironically I had first thought it was Alice until it clicked the voice I was hearing was Sam's. Cuz like, while it'd still be uncalled for, but sort of brushing everything off/hiding behind snarky jokes is something I've come to expect from Alice (please get help girl). But I did not at all expect Sam of all people to react to Gwen like that.

2024-05-29 12:52:02 +0000 UTCDAMMIT SAM!
MuddyHippy
2024-05-29 12:00:15 +0000 UTCOof, yeah. Sam f-ed up real bad.
egg
2024-05-29 10:45:26 +0000 UTCDo NOT joke about face-stealing, lord, don't do that, you'll get Strangered! Also, getting randomly teleported sounds like hell. Wondering with myself if it happens in Celia's sleep? That would make sense to me, as last episode (I think :/) she woke up in the train, and now she was in her pyjamas. Another option could be, like, someone taking over her body, and that's why she doesn't remember moving around? I'm spitballing, There isn't any substantial evidence to lead to possession. Though I guess all the evidence for *specifically* teleportation come from Celia's account of the experiences, which, for someone who has no memory of moving, would feel like teleportation. Who knows. No real point for speculating right now, everything is still very early. Wonderful episode.
egg
2024-05-29 10:44:55 +0000 UTCJesus Christ Sam, what the fuck is up with you? Like somethin' has clearly, really been bothering her - legitimately, and when she opens up to you you just laugh her off?? Especially right AFTER you put together there's real horror monsters out there? Mannnn. You owe her a apology big time.
SwissCoda
2024-05-29 03:17:17 +0000 UTCI mean, I'd hate to be in the position of trying to get people to believe me that Big Bird was an unstoppable spectral assassin for the government. She has my sympathy.
James Rule
2024-05-29 01:42:53 +0000 UTCNot Alice calling me out about my Corkboard.

2024-05-29 01:19:57 +0000 UTCI’M SO NORMAL ABOUT THIS EPISODE! TOTALLY NORMAL! NOT GETTING AN EXTRA LARGE AMOUNT OF RED STRING WITH WHICH TO FURTHER EXPAND MY CONSPIRACY BOARD AT ALL! NOPE! JUST HAVING A NORMAL ONE OVER HERE! 😀

MarlaBothBothIsGood
2024-05-28 21:22:57 +0000 UTCAU John who made all the wrongER choices. But yeah, even if it's not John, that felt a lot like an Archivist power at work.
Gabi (Tao)
2024-05-28 21:10:29 +0000 UTCAm I over thinking stuff or is Gwen's voice a bit... Off?? Edit: I just finished the episode and now I get why her voice could be off...
Fer is against the homophobic vase
2024-05-28 20:47:15 +0000 UTCOr a cigarette
Electra Tempest
2024-05-28 20:37:26 +0000 UTCI agree, but also Charles Entertainment Cheese has always freaked me out!
Mar
2024-05-28 20:31:09 +0000 UTCAHHHHH okay but in MAG 200 I interpret the line about still needing batteries for the nightlights to mean that Georgie and Melanie are now taking care of the Night Street kids (or their London-area equivalents) until parents/guardians can be tracked down, and now in this universe Georgie is babysitting! For a parent who keeps vanishing for eldritch reasons! It all tracks! *adds pushpins to corkboard*
Valerie Kaplan
2024-05-28 18:47:35 +0000 UTCDang Georgie, that's some interesting fears you have about being watched. Really interesting.
Mark Spark

grace
2024-05-28 18:03:01 +0000 UTCMeeting Georgie in the same episode as a statement about a corpse speaking? Not a coincidence surely
Ashes
2024-05-28 17:59:24 +0000 UTCAlice 🤝 Sam in making jokes at the wrong time, but also I am very normal about someone being asked something to which they have to answer even after dead and then immediately going to lonely house full of fog… 👁🌫

2024-05-28 17:50:18 +0000 UTCWow, I wasn’t expecting Sam to be more obnoxious than Alice. Poor Gwen.
Audrey R
2024-05-28 17:48:46 +0000 UTCI'm so calm about this, and I know so much happened, but just notice how Alice didn't laugh at Gwen when she was talking about it, she cares I swear AND MY DYHARD OBSESSION ONLY GROWS

2024-05-28 17:03:45 +0000 UTCAnd so many cemeteries omg
Reynard Du Maurier
2024-05-28 16:59:27 +0000 UTCi completely agree but tbf it’s like if someone set all that up and was like “so remember chuck e cheese…” sounds way more like a prank than genuine. hopefully sam will get his hands on a bonzo case somehow, but after this it doesn’t seem like gwen’s likely to show him…
mercury on the moon
2024-05-28 16:59:26 +0000 UTCI'm sorry??? This episode!! The character interactions! The statement!! The breakdown! The BABY making cute baby noises and Ms Georgie!!!! Also I cheated I couldn't help it!

Helena McCoy
2024-05-28 15:31:44 +0000 UTCOk but my Jonathan sims (the character) senses went crazy when they said “there’s a weird murderer who can kill you with your deepest fear and then make your corpse narrate it.” It sounds like Jon is feeding
Chloe
2024-05-28 15:31:12 +0000 UTCJONNY’S BACK WRITING!!😁😁 (love you too Alex dw)
George Humphreys
2024-05-28 15:30:56 +0000 UTCI have enjoyed all the episodes, but this was the first statement that gave me physical chills
Cyanmoon1
2024-05-28 15:30:26 +0000 UTCOkay adding on because I've finished the episode. What the FUCK. There was so much in this episode! Jonah Magnus voicing, another talking corpse, Gwen actually came out and told them about the 'externals', parallel Georgie.... This was Gertrude and Gerry levels of content, I loved it. My current theory is that these corpses are the TMA versions of people who died in the fearpocalypse transplanting their alternate selves somehow.
J Burns
2024-05-28 15:29:36 +0000 UTCGreat episode once again
bruh really
2024-05-28 15:28:53 +0000 UTCit worked on me, after being accused of peeking i then stubbornly refused to 😅
