Moltke posted:based on what we saw the BIW do to tabitha, i'm not even sure victor's mom didn't make it. The lighthouse is in a different location so I'm not sure why his mother's body would've ended up near the tree again. But it's not like Victor elaborated as to the apparent cause of death. Maybe it was something like... BIW: Sorry, this is the only way... stab stab stab Also BIW: Whoops. Well... back to the drawing board! Edit: Tabitha should've shouted "the only way to what, you little poo poo?!"

Where in this episode did we get confirmation that there is a mole at all, and that it's Donna and Tilly? I don't understand the dots you're connecting.

I don't understand the dots you're connecting. specifically the scene where the old lady is leading a prayer circle and the camera keeps cutting back to donna's reaction, whose face is doing contortions. then boyd is in the church building demanding that if there is a higher power, that it reveal itself. donna shows up again with perfect timing. old lady is sus and i've been warming up to the donna is more than she seems theory lately.

I have no idea what's going on anymore, and I'm pretty sure the thing with the torch wasn't consistent across the season but whatever, maybe next season won't be as wonky.

I would think if the mole plot line was real they would at least have dropped an obvious breadcrumb in the season finale. My take on the Tilly prayer scene was just that Donna thinks prayer is pointless.

I loved Kenny's speech about being threads in a sweater. How they might not be the ones who get to leave but how the work they do might help someone in the future. So maybe they should start a town journal with everything they've learned. And maybe they should make copies, and mandate that any weird thing that happens needs to be reported and written down.

No, they just need to make sure a traumatized child survives and is able to make cryptic drawings of things he half-remembers once he’s about 50 years old. Otherwise it won’t be any fun for the new people.

Thinking about about that ending not referencing that she was found after a car accident or anything, but rather chilling unconscious on a hiking path. Likely that they are avoiding having her whole family still alive but in a coma somewhere which leads me to think she's probably tripping balls in a hallucination within a hallucination.

I’m gonna need one of those expert savant geoguessers to look at the last shot outside the window of the hospital and tell us where it’s at. If some dude can be shown a picture of a patch of dirt on the ground and guess correctly that it’s in some small village in Kyrgyzstan then this should be a piece of cake.

I definitely took it to be she fell out of where she was pushed from the lighthouse, including out of the cursed bubble altogether. She landed back outside the rim of Wherever and she can now be the only one trying to get everyone out from the outside.

One thing I've been wondering about in the opening credits (which slap, by the way) is why one of the drawings is done in a different medium. Every other drawing in the credits is made with crayon, but one of the last ones shown is of a naked man and woman with a clawed hand reaching out for them done in what looks like acrylic paint. It seems fairly certain that the two people are Ellis and Fatima and the hand represents whatever evil is manifesting itself in the town, but I'm curious as to why its painted instead of in crayon. Its also done in a childlike style but still looks quite different in the way things are depicted than in Victor's and his sister's drawings. My dumb speculation on it is that its actually a future illustration after their kid gets stuck in the town - either as some kind of sacrifice to whatever entity they awakened to let everyone else go or everyone else dies - and becomes a second Victor. As Ellis is an artist, he could teach his child to use other mediums than crayons but the kid is still young enough that they don't have the rendering skills yet. I'm probably way off base and looking at something really insignificant too closely, but its fun to speculate on what this could mean.

Solid finale for a solid season. Really liked it. Was the cave room directly below the hole that Tabitha was digging? Cause IIRC after S1 someone on reddit noticed the symbol pattern in how the house debris was shaped when looking up from the cave. May have been just an easter egg though.

Don’t we see that drawing of Ellis/Fatimah in their room? I thought there was a scene where Julie was looking at it when she first moved into the Colony house. It was painted by Ellis, who used to be an artist until the show forgot.

Tiny Timbs posted:Ankhooey... en CUI... in ICU Someone floated "oncology" itt and I'm gonna laugh so hard if it's gonna be that. Some impressions I got: - they emphasized the name of the hospital and even created CGI for the hospital town. Not an American, but the scenery looked kinda unusual, like the hospital was built on a huge hill or something. Maybe the town will be a major setting next season? Like a Silent Hill situation where places exist both in real and a horror reality? - the writers are not doing explicit misdirects, but they are toying with us a little bit. The symbol was presented with ancient Lovecraftian cult undertones in S1, using the cave paintings. But it was revealed to just be a random pattern of tree roots.(wonder what tree that is. Could it be the bottle one?). Same goes for the civil war soldiers, which turned out to just be from a story. Wouldn't surprise me if the entire mythology of the show is set in modern times and it all started in the 1970s. Cave paintings could be some kids drawings.

I hope she's out for real because it's much more rare to see stories of people trapped in a magical location while someone on the outside tries to solve the mystery with resources they couldn't get on the inside; revealing that they're actually still trapped, just in a different way from usual, is a pretty common horror trope, I think, so I'm kind of tired of that.

Went back and watched a couple episodes of the first season to check and its painted above Julie's bed in colony house. I haven't seen season one since it was released so that detail must have slipped my mind.

Seems like hundreds of people have died in the town over the decades. Would be a big deal in the real world if hundreds of people who vanished suddenly just reappear under mysterious circumstances months later and are all telling the exact same story about a creepy horror town. Mulder and Scully would be on the case and someone from the current characters would have heard about it somewhere. Like, one or two people making it out over the years would make sense(like the bus driver's grandma who taught her the nursery rhyme). But not hundreds.
