I love how it takes this long for Jon to realize the lighter is sus
Ari
2021-03-08 16:02:50 +0000 UTCYOU STILL HAVE AN HOUR AND A HALF TO TELL ME WHAT ELSE IS GOING TO HAPPEN, AND I AM SO EXCITED
Sinclair Cross
2021-03-05 06:27:31 +0000 UTCThe last two words... perfect!
Carolyn Thraves
2021-03-04 22:08:48 +0000 UTCWe always knew that lighter was gonna be something! Interesting that it was a anchor for the tapes.
Rebecca Dupont
2021-03-04 18:13:33 +0000 UTCah so Jacob's statement (0.1) works as a warning to us as well
Carolina Martins
2021-03-04 17:14:54 +0000 UTCI love Annabelle so much
Alexandra DeCarlo
2021-03-04 13:12:09 +0000 UTCOk, seriously. I'm sort of ok with the entities moving over here to lurk behind our threshold, it's not like they can make things much worse. But if the last episode ends up being a ritual that manifests them, I'll be pissed.
Eytan
2021-03-04 10:22:21 +0000 UTCThe way I screeched 'THE LIGHTER!!!!' in this episode speaks to how masterfully this show has been written and put together. All the pieces coming together in a slowly dawning realisation is *chef's kiss* perfection.
Marie
2021-03-04 09:13:15 +0000 UTCThe payoff of this show is incredible. All the way through. I can not wait to go back to the beginning for a full relisten when it ends. I mean apart from the obvious, even the lighter was significant I mean it’s insane 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Jess Nicolazzo
2021-03-04 08:45:24 +0000 UTCI guess we don't ignore the pit now?
Lillian Collea
2021-03-04 04:11:07 +0000 UTCI am honestly always impressed and awed by the connections and worldbuilding of this series.
Tahir Raines
2021-03-04 02:58:13 +0000 UTCYes I think read that one too!! I'm like damn did you read the future or what!!
Zorya Dolgushkin
2021-03-04 00:02:51 +0000 UTCOh god, you're so right!
Zorya Dolgushkin
2021-03-03 23:58:15 +0000 UTCjhshkflsh ahhh so good!!! I honestly have never been so happy to be so wrong because up until these last two episodes I for whatever reason really didn't think that the tapes had anything to do with the web. But it makes so much sense that they do and the pieces fitting together like this is so satisfying!! Annabelle's reveal was amazing and omgggg I'm on the edge of my seat and can't wait to see what happens next. Holy shit so many good one liners in this episode too, loving the humor as usual. Thank you!!
Zorya Dolgushkin
2021-03-03 23:56:07 +0000 UTCThat was great. And, maybe Jon and Martin will save the world and both live!
Kara Moskowitz
2021-03-03 23:40:50 +0000 UTCOmg omg omg omg it's so good. Also I'm just very happy there will no longer be any spider soundscaping (hopefully)
NoMercyPercy
2021-03-03 23:01:33 +0000 UTCnow THIS was some excellent horror. the dawning realization that the web reaching into another world was in fact the show itself gave me such a CHILL! and what a brilliant way to write the existence of the show into the story!!
ThirdFromTheLeft
2021-03-03 22:30:56 +0000 UTCI feel like we already know what Jon chose. Because we're listening to the tapes.
Jamie Hilts
2021-03-03 21:47:57 +0000 UTCi was thinking it's extremely likely she intentionally made it seem like she didn't want him to throw it in the pit, when throwing it in the pit might actually serve the Web's plan
jingqi
2021-03-03 21:42:00 +0000 UTC[softly] .... fuck...
ag
2021-03-03 20:41:05 +0000 UTCSpoiler Warning: They Web LIES!!! Destroy the archive, destroy Jonas, and the power does indeed flow into the nearest receptacle: but it sure as hell isn’t the tapes, it’s Jon! Also, who finds it interesting that Martin has just as easy a time manipulating the powers of the Web as he did the Lonely? Martin will save us all!
Michael Larsen
2021-03-03 20:31:11 +0000 UTCI AM SCREAMING! This freaking podcast is just so good!
Sofia Gustafsson
2021-03-03 20:03:44 +0000 UTCAll those centuries of planning and decades of scheming and yet the Web didn't account for its deadliest foe – "What if I throw it into the pit"
Deneb
2021-03-03 19:41:19 +0000 UTC“[MUFFLED AGITATION] [MUFFLED ANXIETY]” Martin once again being relatable

Laurel Buchanan
2021-03-03 19:30:15 +0000 UTCWhen Annabel said explosion I said “fucking spider lighter” out loud. My co-worker was so confused, lol

2021-03-03 17:00:05 +0000 UTCVINDICATION
angel of dumpster fires
2021-03-03 16:59:11 +0000 UTCbecause it knew it was eventually going to happen anyway, regardless of what it did. if you can't prevent something, control it instead.
Idris
2021-03-03 16:57:23 +0000 UTCSO MUCH VINDICATION. Tying a tone of my theories together... I would like to add though, I had a bit of trouble understanding Annabelle in parts due to the pitch effects? I think it was just a but too deep that it made it hard to register. Love the ep tho!!!
Reid Sandlund
2021-03-03 16:55:26 +0000 UTCAs a person with arachnophobia, this episode literally made my skin crawl. But, damn! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I KNEW that lighter was part of the Web!
Heather MacKenzie
2021-03-03 16:52:00 +0000 UTCSo if the Web didn't want the apocalypse, why did they create the perfect Archivist to bring about the apocalypse? I don't think the Web wants anything but *every* world to have the Fears. Using one ruined world to spread to every OTHER world. :thinking:
