What about when Holly and jack were stopped at that gas station bathroom?

she had that vision that he killed her or something? What if that’s the moment?

What happened? I have to rewatch this series - now I feel like I was watching a completely different show - I must have zoned

That still wouldn't explain the gravity defying braid wig. That's all I want an answer to.

Shytttttt

He was trying to get holly to stop asking it questions and then that whole shyt where he was like nikka I know you ain’t dead, wake yo ass up. I gotta kill you before the world finds out some shyt.

Facts - there’s more than meets the eye to that situation, literally . Have you ever thought that Ralph might be a version of El Cuco ? We know there’s more than one El Cuco bc IG ep 9. Why is it that only little boys around his son’s age are used for “feeding”?

Holly is not just on the spectrum, she has the shining

Yeah she's "special" too.
Whether she has a bit of "the shine" in her is up for debate but she does have some sort of heightened intuition and seems to connect with things in an unnatural way.

Just like her wig

So you are saying Holly is a magical negro and she doesn't have autism?

OMFG.

Here is my question, they should have known Jack was with El Cuco right?

I mean Holly is so smart, so she should have been like he has his minion with him.

Why did he abduct Holly? What was the purpose of all that? Take her to El Cuco and then what?

That whole story they said to the DA made no sense.

Y’all over thinking this. This isn’t a Tolkien novel...it’s not that deep.

It’s Stephen King, there isn’t levels to this shyt. There’s no theories or mysteries to uncover. You have to take it all at face value. And at face value the ending didn’t make sense and they added that mid credits scene so they can think of a way to extend the story later if the ratings were good.

Which still wouldn't even matter cuz cuco doesnt take over his victim's, just duplicates them. And hes dead. So what's the big deal shes scratched?

And who killed the child they found on the trail in Ep 9 if El Cuco was busy hiding in the cave as Claude during that time?

I saw the scratch and got the gist of them trying to make it seem like she was the new El Cuco.
So skipping the fact that the only contact she had with El Cuco was fleeting, she showed no reaction like she had been touched by El Cuco when she stabbed him and from what we'd seen she wouldn't be El Cuco from a scratch, she'd just be what El Cuco looks like and there was never a chance for El Cuco to make a switch with her...none of that explains why her hair defies the laws of physics.

SPOILER:
'The Outsider' Ending: Breaking Down the Finale, Credits Scene, and Season 2 Possibilities

The ending is deliberately ambiguous and open to interpretation, which is a thing that the internet absolutely hates (Google “Inception ending” to see what I’m talking about). There are two possibilities – one, that Holly is imagining seeing Jack in her bathroom and is just checking up on the case that fundamentally changed her life; or two, that she is under El Cuco’s influence and is checking to see exactly what the authorities know about it as it slowly recuperates in the cave and transforms into Holly.

There’s evidence to support either conclusion. It’s been established that Holly suffers from PTSD, so the appearance of Jack in her mirror could just be a symptom of the extreme stress she experienced in the shootout in front of the cave. However, just before Ralph crushes the monster’s skull, it pulls a T-1000 and transforms into a bunch of people, including Ralph’s boss Yunis and Holly, which seems to indicate that it can mimic anyone, but can only fully duplicate a person when it collects some of their DNA. That means it could’ve been anyone at any time, and although we never see the Claude monster scratch Holly, other members of the group certainly had the opportunity. It’s entirely possible that El Cuco mimicked Yunis, or Ralph, or anyone else, and scratched her arm to gather her sweet, sweet genetic material for the purposes of nefarious shapeshifting. It’s kind of up to you to decide which explanation is more plausible, although the show throws an additional wrench into everything when El Cuco admits that it has no idea whether it is a sole being or part of a race of creatures, meaning there could be more of them out there. (The show tips us further in this direction in Episode 9, when the Cherokee City D.A. learns that another mutilated child was discovered by a hiker, and we know our El Cuco hasn’t been able to successfully kill any more children since poor Frankie.)

At work rifht now.but ill have pictures and my theory tonight.

But didnt you find its convo weird at the end? Have you seen anyone like me?

Think about Ralph's convo with it as well? Didnt ralph seem pretty knowledgeable about if it was dead or not?

Also i think Holly's comment about outsiders knowing outsiders apllied to all 3 of them, ralph included.

I think Ralph is an outsider like holly and el cuco. I can backit up at home.

I don't know if I buy that RALPH is another El Cuco, but there's definitely another El Cuco out there.
The monster in so many words said that it didn't know what it was, but sometimes it sensed that another one of its kind was out there. So, whatever scratched Holly was a different El Cuco than the one who died.


Actually...now that I think about it...
Is it possible that Ralph IS the other El Cuco, but that he's closer to a "Werewolf"-version of El Cuco? As in, he lives most of his life thinking he's a normal human (with no belief in the supernatural), but then under certain conditions the memory of his supernatural origins comes back and he transforms into a killer?

She probably got scratched during her interaction with the detective no?
