Love a good classic "Stupid man does something stupid cause he thinks it sounds cool" episode. The man from Do Not Open would be driven up the wall by this guy
Our king Joshua Gillespie
Nah Joshua Gillespie is too busy living his best life to be bothered by this guy’s own stupid decisions
Love how Joshua to this day is remembered as the smartest guy in the Magnus series He'd definitely smack Tom on the head 😂
Crawling, muttering to himself and avoiding cameras? I'm with Lena on this one, it just seems like average IT guy behavior to me.
Collin: *skittering across the floor like a spider* Sam: Lena I think I can fix him
better, he can make him worse.
You’d better watch to the end or the ceaseless watcher will break into your house to uh, watch you sleep I guess.
considering it's name being *Ceaseless* watcher i think it will be watching more than just my sleeping
@@ThatOneArchivist The ceaseless watcher cannot unsee it. It begs for death.
Also, the faith reference was pretty sick
Jokes on you, I'm into that

FUN FACT: This episode (the modern day stuff not the case) is set the day after Gerard Kaey's 36th birthday according to the Magnus Protocol ARG.
Gerry birthday :D I hope he got a lot of presents and is not dead or horribly undead
Happy Birthday Gerry!!!
Happy Birthday Gerry ❤
Happy Birthday Gerry! 🖤
Happy Birthday Gerry!
IS COLIN AWARE OF THE EYE?!? Also, “its important we don’t keep secrets here” is such an Beholding line
My pet theory is that Colin suspects/is convinced that someone's watching them, but not in a 'haunted computer' way, but more mundane 'the government is spying on us' conspiracy theorist way.
no, that's just an IT thing
He was telling some recording device he knew it was listening and would find it before it turned itself off a few episodes ago
He accused a computer or camera of listening to him before he turned it off or disconnected it in I think episode 2?
The statement/case here is really funny, if only for it being one of the first times I’ve seen a character in a horror story whose whole thing is being a horror superfan, but who walks right into a situation with every possible red flag for paranormal danger instead of avoiding it by virtue of knowing genre conventions
"A contest? For a FREE screening of a movie no one heard about? On a website that has been inactive for YEARS? And they sent the invite in a BLACK enveloppe? They somehow got my adress? And I'm all alone in the very obviously abandonned theatre? Excepted one elderly employee? Definetly not a trap!!"
@@LeoDBWYou say this as if a scenario like this wouldn't be any horror movie fan's dream, I guarantee at least 85% of them would find that the coolest shit ever (until they die)
can confirm as a horror fan lmao. the entire episode i was just thinking i would probably do a lot of what this person did 😭
@@LeoDBW Don't forget "abandoned building that is inexplicably perfectly pristine inside"
It’s like that scene in Scream where the guy kept screaming at the movie to turn around when Ghost Face is right behind him lmao

NOT "WELCOME TO MY TWISTED MIND!" 😂😂😂
STAY BLOODY
That whole story really feel like those looney toons moments where the coyote charater makes a very visible and obvious trap and put up a "FREE CANDY DEFINETELY NOT A TRAP" sign next to it
To be fair, the guy did seem to have a bit of eye in him as well, he's really determined to see obscure horror movies, so it'd only make sense he'd do anything to see what is allegedly the most obscure and scariest of them all
my new headcanon for protocol if jon and martin are in the computers is that one of the blogs chester reads is going to have the word spooky in it and the computer’s just going to catch fire. that’s how we’re gonna find out its jon and martin in there just trust me
I'm following your theory until proven otherwise
Someone's password somewhere should be Good_Cows
It seems Jon narrates cases about the eye, Jonah Magnus narrates older cases, and Martin narrates general cases
Not just "general" cases, "Norris" seems to specifically read cases with some form of tragic love is involved which is. Fitting, to say the least
@silas-kingofw_e And Chester seems to specifically narrate statements about wanting to know
I thought it was leitner not jonah?
@dseray9494 We can't be sure yet but as they kept the same voices for Martin and Jon it's more likely it's Jonah here. Plus it makes more sense for him to be there as he died near Jon and Martin. Whereas Leitner died years before and was burried somewhere else
@@dseray9494 well Leitner had a different voice actor
Alice: Whats wrong with everyone today? Fr3-D1: Chimes in Alice: Oh, don't you start! ...Yall. What if he was trying to answer her question?
And she just turned em down smh
I just realized Freddy’s name actually spells out Freddy cause you typed it out I thought Alice took the first letter of the name and ran with it

BABE WAKE UP, NEW OFFICE COMEDY PODCAST EPISODE HAS DROPPED!!!
“The Magnus Archives is a workplace comedy”
@@CasuallyUndead And they had an american(?) reboot, just like the office!
Oh my god mentioning Faith the unholy trinity in a Magnus protocol episode. Best day ever
And Sweet Home too
And critters! Love that film And babadook
this episode was just reference feast and I also love how all of them are canon in this universe (assuming they are all from this universe because well)
I LOOSE MY MIND AND ALMOST CHOKED ON MY NOODLE
This is the second time we've heard Alice talk to her brother about the new band, I'm starting to feel he's gonna be on one of FREDI'S reports in the future :') we don't know who owns the hungry violin
New Grifters bone?
second time we've heard her say "you always say the sweetest things", too
@@AlexDeMiro don't know why but this makes me suspicious of her. Like she's talking in codes wit her "brother" or something like that.
[s1jon voice] ok so the popcorn was definitely drugged
😂😂😂
The old guy at the movie theater is giving me Simon Fairchild vibes. Obviously he’s not Vast aligned, like Simon, but he’s still a really old guy who seems happy and unusually spry, and who inflicts horrors on unsuspecting victims in eccentric ways. I’m kind of here for it! Hope this wacky dude comes up again! At least he makes really good popcorn for you before inflicting unspeakable horrors upon your mind. How very considerate! 😁
I also feel like it’s not the same guy moving from one service place to another but rather clones of the same guy. I mean even if it’s Eye aligned it’s still a cinema hence a bit of the stranger could be there
My guess is the theater itself is the entity, and like an anglerfish, lures people in to feed. The old guy just manifests when needing to interact with the audience.
@@OctopusOwl Ooo! I like that idea a lot! 😃 Although, the Anglerfish lure wasn’t particularly sentient, just repeating the same phrase over and over; whereas the old man seemed to be quite responsive, answering Tom’s questions, serving him concessions, ushering him to his seat, etc. So, if the theater is part of the entity, I imagine it would likely be more symbiotic, closer to The Distortion and its hallways. 😊
Man I love me some WUB WUB WUB, DUN DUUU NUUUU, WUB WUB WUB DUUUU-NUUUU-NUU-NUUUGH

WUB WUB WUB🔥🔥🔥🔥
It almost sounds like an entity laughing
@@LycanDreams9159if said entity was the unholy child of a frog and a trombone
The "Translate to English" button makes this ten times funnier 😂
This guy really ignored a buffet of red flags to watch a movie. I wish I could say thats abnormal but I've met cinephiles and that checks out.
The Eye is at it again...but holy cheese, it seems to be taking a much more active approach this time around. The scene with Gwen jump-scaring Alice has gotta be the next animated short on KZhead, that was just too perfect 🤣
The statement was pretty good right up until the end, feels like it needed 1 or 2 more minutes, the abrupt ending left me feeling Babadooked.
Like, this was some good vague unease, but I feel like it got cut off before we hit any real horror. Like, all the deleted posts were kinda spooky, and so was the empty theater, but it cut before we got any real impact on the guy and all we really know was it was a video of him that had something that wasn't supposed to be there. Unsettling, yeah, but I have no idea the shape or scope of this fear.
Surely the eye is involved. The word “voyeur” refers to a kink where people enjoy watching others
@@alessiapalma8823Not necessary a kink, just anything with an observer.
I'm wondering if the cinema or film will come up again like Hill Top Road or Arthur Nolan's apartment block.
@@jazmineraymond7495 voyeur is French for "one who sees." similar to "watcher."
Wow: ...The contents of this post have been deleted.
The Magnus Archives needs to be heard to be believed. The scariest podcast I've ever listened to.
@@dseray9494Just listened to it for the past few weeks, the Magnus Archives needs to be heard to be believed. The scariest podcast I’ve ever listened to.
Imagine it was normal and he wasn't alone there. Imagine you go to an exclusive screening and there is some guy in the cinema, constantly speaking into his phone, text-to-speach-live-blogging the movie.
"Thank you so much Xenophobia12220" gets me every time 😂
Apparently it's 'Cinephobia' according to the transcript? but I heard xenophobia as well and yeah that's a 10/10 made up internet username
So the tattooed German previous IT manager that Gwen was asking about at the end… that’s gotta be the guy she saw Lena threatening at the end of the last episode, right? Since FR3-D1’s programming is based in a German source code (or however Colin phrased it in episode 1) did that guy program FR3-D1? Or was FR3-D1 already there, and he also discovered the truth about it, like Colin is in the process of now, and had to disappear for some reason? Hmm… 🤔
Oooooooo I like this theory😆
Ohh this is a good theory. it would make sense. Though I don't think she _saw_ it? I think it was just an audio recording. or did I miss something :p
Yes it's surely is Klaus
@@CamilleChauTempsDesCerises pretty sure the transcripts name the person, for anyone who's wanting to know
@@Paperbag34 On the first listen I was immediately sure that she saw a video. On relisten, there's honestly no evidence one way or another. I think my conviction about the video mostly came from my own trouble with recognizing voices. The fact that Gwen immediately recognized Lena made me think she saw her on the screen, and her shoked "what the HELL?" was in response to watching Lena holding someone at a gunpoint (or similar scenario), rather than just hearing an ambiguous conversation. Unoficcial transcript specificaly mentions video, but it is unofficial, so I'm not sure how trustworthy it is. The good news is, this is too important a plotpoint to be left a mystery - we shall know, sooner or later.
This feels like it's to be finished at a later date. However, I think the horror comes about when wondering how it would feel to be watching a home video of some family time, only to then see someone (clearly scary) appear who was never there originally. That's got to strike some fear. An episode that hits with the horror after the listening.
The contents of the Faith review got deleted? That's unfortunate it's a great one
I’m preferring to believe that “faith the unholy trilogy” is this alternate universe version of “faith the unholy trinity” and not a typo.
It would baffle me at how clueless he was at all of the red flags, if it weren't for the fact he clearly didn't get the Babadook.
Its possible to get a movie, and still be disappointed. High expectations are difficult to live up to.
@@Badficwriter I suppose. But most people I know that didn't like the Babadook are the kind of people that are all, "I WANTED TO SEE THE MONSTER!" Since the removed reviews disallow us to see what takes they have on other films, it's hard to say whether they got it and didn't like it, or disliked it because they didn't get it. Hype really can affect your experience though. Very valid point.
I bet that Cinephobial2220 or/and the old guy in the cinema is an avatar
Or they're the same person
Can't help but wonder if it might've been the same guy with the cursed wares. Still curious about what happened to the guy in this report tho- he seemed like a pretty strong candidate for an Eye avatar if he hadn't been fed on first, but it didn't sound like he died
@@Speckabooyes! Until we don't hear someone's death described in some horrific way they still in game! ;D So we have to look out for the name Tom :p
@@Yumeki-san not to tie it into tma but wasn't not!sasha's (probably also stranger avatar) boyfriend named tom?
@wildtamer4461 you are right! oOo But it's kinda debatable whether he was made up or not, and we had characters with the same name before... *khm*the 2 dam Michaels *khm* It is interesting, though, how we don't know either of the Toms surnames 🤔 but regardless, it's an interesting point, and I will definitely keep this in minde! :D
I’m seeing a lot of people claiming this episode reflects the eye, but I definitely get the stranger vibes from the end of the statement. Asking “Who the hell is that?” in response to seeing an old childhood video really highlights this I think.
I'm getting an (un)healthy mix of Eye and Stranger. Definitely Eye for Tom, Stranger for the theatre, & a mix of Eye (Voyeur I mean c'mon) and Stranger (the "who the hell is that" and the feeling he got replaced with "Voyeur needs to be seen to be believed. The scariest movie I have ever seen.") for the movie.
@@JustCallMeEmily oh definitely. It’s more of a mix than it is one or the other
Thursday is the best day of the week truly
real!
I used to like Fridays, but now..i think favoritism has shifted it's gaze onto Thursdays (in a spooky statement voice)
I consider Thursday to be the worst the day off the week but, thanks to TMGP, it is better now!
Thursday is when I play DND with my friends :] Thursday is my favorite day
The guy is a fan of Horror. He finds out about a movie that nobody knows anything about. He enters a contest with only his name and gets a letter to his *house.* He finds the Theatre looks abandoned on the outside and is spookily well furnished on the inside. There is only one worker in the building. HE DIDN'T SEE A SINGLE RED FLAG THE ENTIRE TIME??? This may genuinely be the dumbest statement giver we've ever had.
To be fair, he's not a statement giver- he's a random blogger that the government owned computer system decided to invade the privacy of post-mortem (presumably post mortem, he could still be alive). But to be fair not many bloggers or vloggers tend to care about their own safety when views are involved
To be fair, bloggers/vloggers or any social media influencer are the worst when it comes to spotting red flags. They are also desperete for any content, and there's already been a few movies illustrating this like Incantation and Spree
He mentioned craving a movie that thrills him and the spooks commonly prey on vulnerabilities like that. They put out a bait he simply wasn't willing to ignore.
I agree with all the replies, and also it gets a lot different when you're actually there irl. We tend to trust ourselves less when convenience is involved. Abandoned on the outside, pristine on the inside equals old building with new renovations way more than it does supernatural fuckery. Exclusive personal film showing from sweepstakes equals these-directors-think-they're-the-shit-and-so-exclusive-and-important way more than murderer trying to kill you. I wouldn't really call the statement giver dumb, they're probably more like the rest of us than we'd like to believe.
Not only that, it's the same theatre he went to with his dad, presumably when he was a kid.. uh >_>
Gotta love the FAITH reference.
WE BETTER GET THAT CLIFFHANGER FROM LAST EP ADRESSED I SWEAR
i feel like she is just too freaked out and paranoid to directly adress the situation or ask anyone about it. maybe she thinks that she was send the video by one of her coworkers and tries to figure out who that was. i dont blame her for being cautious. but same i need to have that adressed asap
I think the German it guy is the other voice with Lena and he figured out what was going on and then added that German code into Fr3-d1
i'm seeing people say the "statement"-giver here is behaving like a horror movie character, but nobody else is thinking about the fact that it seems set up in a very deliberately Classical Horror Scenario way, and we have no actual guarantee that the blogger was even real. it's eye stuff, i honestly think there's a very solid chance that the "blogger" IS the manifestation (or avatar, who knows). the blog posts are formatted like they exist to tell a horror story to readers, and i guess you could interpret that as unusually cliched writing for rusty quill, but i'm more inclined to think the thing that's off is in-universe and not out of it. this dude was livestreaming it, and you don't stop to think that maybe the blog readers are the voyeurs here? also, i'm gonna be honest, i love seeing really smart horror characters as much as the next horror fan, but have you, like, met... humans? real people are strikingly, astonishingly dumb more often than not. i still think odds are good that this statement giver IS the monster so to speak, but if not, it's reaaaally not hard for me to believe some random blogger is an idiot, because that describes most bloggers, seeing as bloggers are people and most people are idiots
Um… was I the only one who felt like the statement ended a bit abruptly? Like, all that build up, and then it cut away before the real spooky stuff could start.
You could say you got...Babadooked
I have a feeling this statement, or the cinema, might come up again. It feels like some TMA first season stuff that eventually set up the bigger things like Hill Top Rd.
Thisis exacly what I needed in the middle of my finals season on my university - some good old horror stress served by Rusty Quill, instead of constant panic attack of exams
Better the devil you ask for I guess?
I feel you there, Ive listened to the entirety of TMA and all of my worst nightmares were still about school 🫠
Everyone give it up for the antithesis of Joshua Gillespie!
TRUTH!!! 🤣
This earns a giggle
Not sure how I feel about the ending of the blogger’s story. So the Voyeur just pops up in the home video his mother made for his brothers, and then that’s the end of the narrator?
well it seems that more happened, and that our mc just wasnt able to talk bcs of the pure horror inflicted upon them
When the film started I was thinking "oh yes here we go, the horror's starting!" then it's suddenly over? Very confused.
@@zypalitra8080well it’s likely that the voyeur took him over once he saw it properly, that’s why it ends abruptly
@@alessiapalma8823 Sure, but in other TMA stories he'd at least get a few more minutes into the film before something happened. It cuts just at the start of the movie at the worst moment.
The very last thing that happens is the narrator seeing an additional person in the footage. Someone was there at the time, watching. All the film did was reveal that fact.
The instrumentals in these past few episodes have been just gorgeous, and I haven’t seen anyone else talking about them. The stuff when the movie started playing especially was really beautiful, been loving the instruments in the background so far. Great work guys!
WHAT IF WHOEVER WAS STANDING IN THE CORNER WAS JON??? STANDING THERE, SPOOKING SPOOKILY
Sam’s going to become the only member of the Response Department, and I have a feeling his job is going to get _weird._ What does the response department do? Is he going to be responding directly to FR3-D1, confirming its sentience? Is he going to actually be investigating the statements that were assessed? I can’t wait to see what comes of him filling out that paperwork. 😁
"I dont even remember giving them my address :D" SIR NO- Despite this statement guy being a conoseiour of horror - he sure had no problem accepting a strange invitation to a rundown theater with one only 'member of staff' LMAO
I’d do the same thing fr “oh boy they sent the prize right to my house!” I would never be heard from again
I’m still here waiting for that chick who cleaned Hilltop Road to pop up cause we all know thats tied to the plot
I think she got stranded in the previous universe.
Alice sounded so sweet on that phone call, what the heck, I love her. Also, I am officially sus of Lena after this episode. She's giving "Knows but will watch the place burn down before she puts a stop to it" vibes
HOOBOY TIME FOR MY WEEKLY TWENTY MINUTES OF SPOOK *Edit eye see this one was pretty vague ironic or should I say eyeronic
Love the “getting babadooked” bit, that was me too, added to the relatability of the narrator
lena.. lena…… colin……….jon-i meAN CHHHeSter
I’m wondering if TMP will ever confirm the presence of Jon, Martin, and Jonah as the computer voices. They might not, but I almost feel as if Colin’s whole arc with the system means they’ll have to eventually reveal that the computers are alive. Probably will be a later arc like the tapes in TMA.
I believe they must be real ppl but maybe they’re leading us with the voices into thinking they’re Jon, Martin and Jonah when not
@@imalittlelady I mean… in the trailer it says it’s initializing J1, M1, and J2. If they’re leading us on that’s a pretty stupid twist - considering literally all evidence points to it being Jon, Martin, and Jonah.
@@malaizze it’s bc of all the evidence leading to that that I’m getting suspicious
I have a feeling from comments made by Alexander J Newell and Jonny Sims that the series will be about if Jon/Chester, Martin/Norris, etc. are, in fact, people/alive: if something that is essentially an AI is a person.
I’ve been here for episodes every week, and it will take another 42 years for me to not be scared by the opening music.
The person in the statement really reminds me of the youtuber Pastra... even mentions a few of the same obscure horror movies that they've covered.
Fellow Pastra enjoyer! Nice to see someone else around here like me (:
That first sting in the outro theme reminds me of spiderlings bursting from an egg sac, like the powers emerging in a new world
The eye demands you eat your large popcorn.
Colin having a real Jon Sims moment
Colin is already fully in his Season 2 Jon era.
Wonder how long before Colin gets more violently victimized by the Eye and/or Spiral....
So does anybody else get the vibe that Sam filling out that Response Department paper is gonna bind him to the Watcher in some way? So far, none of these cases have had any real follow-up like in TMA. We hear the story, but never what happened after. It stays unresolved. I have a feeling that form is going to force Sam to actually look into these cases, and he wont be able to quit after.
He’s already begun. Remember he got flagged for trying to research the Magnus Institute and Protocol. He’s already been drawn in and this paperwork might just lock him in.
Like Jon, Sam is too curious for his damn good, I think. I also feel like he has some sort of past connection with what remains of the Magnus Institute in TMP universe.
The system is an electronic archive. Sam is literally doing the filing or classifying that the assistants did previously. The follow-up and investigation of the statements were a ruse to justify their being taken and archived in the first place.
In the TMA, the Archives' staff was so unaware about what's going at the start (except Elias of course) but in the TMP, it feels like everyone knows something. Even Sam (and probably Alice before the transition as one of the kids had the same last name) was a part of the studies of gifted children in the Magnus Institute. Colin is already very interesting to me with the way he's trying to crack the code and is at least partially aware of the Eye
The Magnus Archives is the scariest podcast I have ever watched. It needs to be seen to be believed. That aside, I love this episode!
LETS [censored] GOOO🥳🥳
I've felt like the blogger for awhile; watching spooky stuff, but never being spooked. This episode seemed aimed at me. Well done!
Shoutout to Airdorf and "Faith". Highly recommended.
"Let's just say that most of them aren't horror" Me: "oh I wonder wh-- OH WAIT PFFT--"
Alice talks to the computers like Martin used to talk to the tapes
Love the Unholy Trinity reference.
This compatition thing is strongly reminding me of The Circus of the Other.... "Submit your name and maybe you'll win" and all that...
FAITH MENTION! Someone needs to get wendigoon onto TMA, its right in his wheelhouse
Heck yeah they do
Amazing
We need this
Omg a wendigoon video about TMA would make my life complete
THE WAY MY EYES WIDENED WHEN I HEARD IT (i absolutely agree with you)
“That - now bear with me on this Sam, because I know you’re feeling emotional right now - is paper 😮 its made from trees ☺️” LMAO
Lena is Totally an avatar of the eye “it’s important we don’t keep secrets here”
How long till something dreadful befalls Alice's brother? They're establishing the hell out of him. 😉
I finished the Magnus archives today and immediately started on this. So clearly I was instantly ready to be hurt again. For some reason when Sam said Collin was acting strange I thought of extended surveillance
I had the worst migrane I'd ever had earlier today but now I'm on the mend and finally able to listen to the newest episode and I'm so happy
And with how much I enjoyed and anticipated the episode, of course it felt insanely short
Yoooo Faith refrence, love when two things I love interact in some way! Mortis 💀
This one had me particularly annoyed at Lena because I have gone to a boss about a co-worker that was going to snap. They were like it's fine and then he did snap and things were not fine
Can’t believe Lena makes Elias look like a good boss
Truly a blast from the past with the twisted mind title
Got to say the production on this series is fucking tight, love the change from tape to pensioner PC
1:23 Pre-case 5:54 Case (Unclear) [Blog: Chester] 18:10 Post-case
This one has truly stumped me. Initially I thought it may be the lonely, what with Tom ending up in the theatre alone, but the contents of the film itself doesn't really reflect that. Then I thought maybe the Spiral or the Stranger, considering that it seems to be an old memory but with something not right about it (the unknown person he saw at the end). But the word "voyeur" means someone who enjoys watching others suffer which could just mean an avatar or specifically an Archivist so this could be the Eye. Maybe this is proof that the fears don't fit into the categories they used to but since we barely know what's going on here at all, it's hard to say.
@@elliesteele2027all the stories so far have been blurred, each one possibly belonging to two TMA fears. Because this is an alternative universe it’s completely possible the fear never “split” like they did in TMA.
@@FiendishAura438i mean they never split in tma, they were just split into categories by smirke but they were still the same thing, although these ones have felt more blended together than the og ones
@@xvx_cooldude69_xvx43 that was actually my point, and the reason I put split in quotes. My theory is that the fears are particularly based on perception. They will alway be fear, but if someone excepts the fear to be something in some way they will shift ever so slightly. So when smirke created categories to try and understand fear, it stretched just enough to “fit” it’s own “role”. Just my current theory though.
@@elliesteele2027 to me it’s pretty obvious that the eye is involved: the word voyeur like you said, the line “the voyeur needs to be SEEN to be believed”, also from the video it looks like the voyeur has been in the statement giver’s life from a long time, but he just watched without actually interfering with his life up until now. Not sure about other fears
Hey, guys. Im a huge fan of the archives and am keeping up with each episode of protocol. Im loving all of it. Just wanted to let you guys know, that on each upload of the new episodes, your playlist for the full archives becomes backwards.
Did the popcorn take this guys memories and put them in the movie?? Sigh i love demon popcorn
This one really got to me. Damn.
Alright soo- the German guy is the one who put German things in the code? Maybe also the hacker in ARG trying to stop the players from getting info
Theres that response department thing I was worried about again... Also wonder if alice knows more about the response team, she's kinda,,,, what's the word,, like. Flippant? Dismissive? About it? And I wonder why SHE didn't throw them out if shes so sure it's nothing. Although maybe that's illegal idk. Then on the flip side, maybe its SAM that knows exactly what it is and hes just good at making it look like an accident. Maybe hes looking for an excuse to go out and investigate. I am going nowhere with this train of thought fyi the TMAGP comments section just makes me feel part of something without having to worry about the... idk masking? Performing? Social etiquette? What I'm saying is I like spewing my thoughts into the void for some kind of vague sense of social interaction WOW this got off topic
i agree about the etiquette thing haha, it’s nice to see the same folks under every episode just talking about it
Voyeur needs to be seen to be believed. The scariest movie I have ever seen.
I wonder if Sam feels… compelled to fill out the response department paperwork. Whatever happens next, it certainly will be interesting
Interesting theory, I assumed he was just motivated by his own curiosity, but he sounds like the makings for a future eye aviatar.
Bro trash talked the Babadook, he deserved it
Are Chester and Norris starting to *communicate*?! Chester was trying to grab Sam's attention and Norris answered Alice at the end!
For some reason Chester being like ‘hey.. hey sammy! I have a statement! Listen to me read it?’ Is like so cute😭🥰
