Boyd is always comedy Breh be mad as hell sounding like a Stereotypical Police Chief from a 80s/90s movie

 

[Piff Perkins]

So Boyd saved everyone by discovering the talismans, establishing the town, finding food, creating law/order and the minute some shyt goes wrong they want to get rid of him? Every time?


I liked the episode overall. The townhall felt long overdue. I'm glad there's actually conversation and sharing of information this season but it highlights just how weird shyt has been previously. And while I get that the town is in crisis/chaos it's still dumb that so many strong willed/smart characters have turned into little more than bit characters who helplessly wander from scene to scene. What happened to Ellis having some type of drive, or Jim doing ANYTHING, or Sara interacting with multiple people etc. I get that people are falling apart, like Donna. But it just feels like a waste because these are interesting characters, it seems like there are things to be done...and instead people just do nothing and then react to whatever the public reveal at the end of the episode is. Randal on an ambulance laid out, Dale in a brick wall lmao. What will the town react to next.


I need Sara to get back with Boyd and figure some shyt out. Also the bottles....are those coordinates on the paper? Maybe there's some way to determine where you end up, based on the time of day you enter the tree.

I immediately started thinking it was coordinates when Jade, and Tabitha were discussing whether the numbers are years or not. As soon as I saw what happened to Dale. I had made a wild ass connection (they 100% wouldn't go this direction, they would tease it at most). What if the people of course are real but the world they're trapped in is a game world? I know it's already been theorized. But to add onto that theory. What if the game is still a work in progress, or an alpha build?

Maybe that's why the trees slowly move like Victor said in season 1. When I think about it. Why would Dale appear through the pool wall and not above or in front of it? Why not have him walk out of another tree portal (maybe there was one but years of moving fukked up it's coordination)?

Hear me out. What if the coordinates was off, and he "clipped" through the game world? Obviously he's a real person, and not hollow like an actual video game character. So he died immediately. I believe the bottles have been moved around and stuff since Tabitha last went in. Changes to a single bottle, or coordinate can probably be the difference between teleporting to the tower. Or clipping through some random object, or wall.


When Tabitha was pushed off the tower. She respawned somehow.

The devs who made the game are either evil, aliens, or both. Fromville might just be a human species experiment. I just googled game world coordinates. And there's a reddit thread "how do some games move the world around the player". I'm trying to connect the dots like.

I can definitely see that. I think I've mentioned it before, but Victor said there didn't used to be seasons. I had a theory that the program/game had been updated.

The only bit you wrote that I'm not ready to fully co-sign is that the devs are evil or aliens. I still think this is somehow related to whatever Jade's big quantum breakthrough was (hasn't been referenced since season one) and that everyone entering Fromville right after some major life-changing decision is a tie in...like maybe the program was supposed to be a new form of exposure therapy, but it glitched for whatever reason.

Exposure therapy would explain why everyone's fears keep manifesting in the From world.

Another thing I was thinking about. When Victor's dad asked where is the motel I'm amazed I never thought about that before. If it's true that there are coordinates where things from the real world - people, vehicles, buildings, etc - land, isn't it possible that there's another town? Perhaps a town with the motel. Remember when they found the new food/crops...that was right near a river bank. What if there are people on the other side of that body of water?

Dale.....

Been binge watching this show from day one.... It's pretty good....

Good theory


Jade just developed the the company or whatever and Fromville has been going on since at least the 70s when Victor got there



I do believe there might be a time travel element involved so it’s definitely still possible


I do think it’s some type of game like Ethan said it’s a quest

 

[tinnyskillz]

I've been enjoying this season a lot. Episode 6 is the weakest episode so far though. It progressed very, very slowly. I kind of expected it to be meh tbh. I temper my expectations because I know they ain't finna answer everything randomly in episode 6 and make huge progress. It'll be small incremental baby steps until episode 9 shyt will pop off again. Then of course (hopefully) a twist or big reveal in the finale.

 

[Don Snow]

Tabitha knows what’s out there



This episode was slow but it’s setting up some
Big reveals




Also I think the numbers in the bottle, are code like code for programming

 

[Don Snow]

Also what if Tabitha isn’t victor’s sister but maybe his niece


Eloise could be Tabitha’s mom maybe idk

I’ve been fooled too many times

 

[Hoshi_Toshi]

I’m tired of Fatima and this damn baby lol

And smh at Randall forgetting why his dumb ass is living in the bus.

Why did Tom’s ghost mention jades company? Hmmm

 

[Blankthawtz]

Did anyone mention that maybe the nighttime is the only way out of the town?..... Just gotta walk passed the monsters and leave......

I think that Emergency truck from a few weeks ago technically drove into town at night. They haven't tried leaving town at night though. Honestly Boyd can definitely walk pass them and see. They never touch breh. Especially this season. It's like he has Diplomatic Immunity or something, irrevocable.
