among us

Xan

Same. Was so ready for him to not be human lol

Xan

I may or may not annotate the transcripts with theory notes 🫣

Xan

😂😂 That’s a great point; I didn’t put together that his not liking to be stared at is probably an indication of a weakness

Ethan

My guess is she keeps waking up in random places.

Sarah Tavana

if im celia at this point I'd be getting dressed up to go out before I go to bed

Chyou Xian

I'm not saying my brain works exactly like the woman's in that case but I'm also NOT not saying that ETA: The static/glitches when people lie is very interesting. Has happened a few other times, but heard it again here with Teddy. LOVE all the little hints RQ are throwing in, great work as always!

Kate McKiernan

Sasha Sasha Sasha Sasha Sasha!!!!

DamianJ

Yup yup do you recon it’s the og Jonah? Like I’m guessing his body was kept in the institute when he body snached and cause his current body (90s) has died in the fire, his power when back to his og body?

Axis S

Ooooh you could be onto something! Something about this def brought up aspects of the fearpocalypse……. interesting

Axis S

Ohhh shit !!! Archivist monster released from Magnus institute in TMP universe (by Sam and Alice) who has power of pseudo resurrection for answering cause of death / to cause them to relive their death repeatedly…. Something?!

Axis S

She seemed to have genuine fear about being spied on so I thought this was TMP universe version of Georgie?

Axis S

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Axis S

Maybe the original monsters in TMP universe are things/people that are fueled by their own fear and that becomes some warped weird power // or maybe post TMA apocalypse things that felt few the most became powerful

mercury on the moon

ohh, i was thinking she was sleepwalking, not teleporting, but i recall she did mention "weird physics stuff: time travel, other dimensions, teleportation", so it totally could be. i actually checked today, and it looks like the walk from london to oxford would take over a day, so it's most likely either teleportation or she's taking public transport in her sleep (assuming she actually went to oxford)

Joshua manson

Favorite episode so far! I love how casually it links back to the fact that Jon successfully saved everyone by featuring Georgie in that tidbit. Poor Georgie was the only character who wasn’t aware of how the spider watches everything. Can’t wait for next week

Connor M. Carnall

GEEEEOOOOORRREEEGIIEEEEEEE!!!!!

Tammie

Teddy is interesting.

Ariane Signalis is the Elster Signalis Fan Club and challenges you to play SIGNALIS without pointing at any of the characters an

Bonzo is many things, but he is not unstoppable. He fears being looked at. *racks the slide on my dusty tome labelled CEASELESS WATCHER*. The beast can be killed

Keegan A

!!!!! Well then!!!

SwissCoda

Unironically I had first thought it was Alice until it clicked the voice I was hearing was Sam's. Cuz like, while it'd still be uncalled for, but sort of brushing everything off/hiding behind snarky jokes is something I've come to expect from Alice (please get help girl). But I did not at all expect Sam of all people to react to Gwen like that.

Betty

Augustus case readings hit juuuuust right

Leaf Ryan

Man I thought Augustus would only show up for weird old shit lol

Metin Coker

Anyone else not get notif for this episode? Just saw this

LainyJP

Smart move!

Anthony

i’m not ruling out demon baby just yet

MuddyHippy

DAMMIT SAM!

egg

Oof, yeah. Sam f-ed up real bad.

egg

Do NOT joke about face-stealing, lord, don't do that, you'll get Strangered! Also, getting randomly teleported sounds like hell. Wondering with myself if it happens in Celia's sleep? That would make sense to me, as last episode (I think :/) she woke up in the train, and now she was in her pyjamas. Another option could be, like, someone taking over her body, and that's why she doesn't remember moving around? I'm spitballing, There isn't any substantial evidence to lead to possession. Though I guess all the evidence for *specifically* teleportation come from Celia's account of the experiences, which, for someone who has no memory of moving, would feel like teleportation. Who knows. No real point for speculating right now, everything is still very early. Wonderful episode.

SwissCoda

Jesus Christ Sam, what the fuck is up with you? Like somethin' has clearly, really been bothering her - legitimately, and when she opens up to you you just laugh her off?? Especially right AFTER you put together there's real horror monsters out there? Mannnn. You owe her a apology big time.

James Rule

I mean, I'd hate to be in the position of trying to get people to believe me that Big Bird was an unstoppable spectral assassin for the government. She has my sympathy.

th3_m0rbs

Not Alice calling me out about my Corkboard.

Trisidael

I’M SO NORMAL ABOUT THIS EPISODE! TOTALLY NORMAL! NOT GETTING AN EXTRA LARGE AMOUNT OF RED STRING WITH WHICH TO FURTHER EXPAND MY CONSPIRACY BOARD AT ALL! NOPE! JUST HAVING A NORMAL ONE OVER HERE! 😀

Gareth Green

And she KNOWS.

LainyJP

I have to admit, I really did believe that Jack wasn't a real baby.

Grace 'Gengar' Soria

Cheaters you called us. CHEATERS. Anyway, I don't care. GEORGIE OMGOMGOMG. But Sam. Seriously. Dude. Sam. What the hell. Yeah it sounded funny, but fuckinghellsam at least let her finish!!

MarlaBothBothIsGood

MY GIRL MY GIRL IS BACK GEORGIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE though pls pls PLS don't make jokes about stealing faces In the same line..."lonely WORMS" ALICE PLEASE BEHAVE GOOOOOOD cyber-Jonah Magna delivers, what an statement

Gabi (Tao)

AU John who made all the wrongER choices. But yeah, even if it's not John, that felt a lot like an Archivist power at work.

Fer is against the homophobic vase

Am I over thinking stuff or is Gwen's voice a bit... Off?? Edit: I just finished the episode and now I get why her voice could be off...

Electra Tempest

Or a cigarette

Mar

I agree, but also Charles Entertainment Cheese has always freaked me out!

Valerie Kaplan

AHHHHH okay but in MAG 200 I interpret the line about still needing batteries for the nightlights to mean that Georgie and Melanie are now taking care of the Night Street kids (or their London-area equivalents) until parents/guardians can be tracked down, and now in this universe Georgie is babysitting! For a parent who keeps vanishing for eldritch reasons! It all tracks! *adds pushpins to corkboard*

Mark Spark

Dang Georgie, that's some interesting fears you have about being watched. Really interesting.

Erica

So so calm. I am so calm right now. Just very very calm.

The distortion

oh my god oh my god oghhg fjhjdn

grace

i’m freaking out

grace

GEORGIE BARKER MY BELOVED I MISSED YOU SO MUCH

Ashes

Meeting Georgie in the same episode as a statement about a corpse speaking? Not a coincidence surely

The Starlight Family

Alice 🤝 Sam in making jokes at the wrong time, but also I am very normal about someone being asked something to which they have to answer even after dead and then immediately going to lonely house full of fog… 👁🌫

Jesse Agins

There. Will. Be. Spiders. 🕸️

Audrey R

Wow, I wasn’t expecting Sam to be more obnoxious than Alice. Poor Gwen.

Gabriel V

I'm so calm about this, and I know so much happened, but just notice how Alice didn't laugh at Gwen when she was talking about it, she cares I swear AND MY DYHARD OBSESSION ONLY GROWS

A_Spooky_Nosh

OMFG !!!

SentientBogOrb

idk about mr khalid but I would believe chuck e cheese was a ruthless murderer working for the government immediately

Reynard Du Maurier

And so many cemeteries omg

mercury on the moon

i completely agree but tbf it’s like if someone set all that up and was like “so remember chuck e cheese…” sounds way more like a prank than genuine. hopefully sam will get his hands on a bonzo case somehow, but after this it doesn’t seem like gwen’s likely to show him…

Mice and Moonbeams

I'm sorry??? This episode!! The character interactions! The statement!! The breakdown! The BABY making cute baby noises and Ms Georgie!!!! Also I cheated I couldn't help it!

shmudkip

“some figure reaching… asking questions in an alley….” god forbid a guy wants a little snack!!

BuriedInTheArchives

Hoping and praying we get him back, sure he's doing awful things, but also Jon!

jo

ohhh gwen trying to confide in her coworkers only to be laughed away broke my HEART

Lisette

This is the best thing that ever happend to me

mora!

OH MY GODSDDDDDJSJSKAKK

DavidCoppAFeel

So it's confirmed this is our Georgie from TMA Rght as in ain't nothing scare me because I had my fear eaten by a failed attempt on my life by the end georgie?

DamianJ

Omg gwen! Georgie! Also is there a feral archivist running around killing peolle and making them relive the horrors post moral?!?!

DavidCoppAFeel

Holy fuck I think your right

mayab

welcome back georgie barker

Voltz

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

SentientBogOrb

Gwen deserves the bIGGEST apology from sam after that one holy shit, she was finally opening up and he laughs in her face like DUDE i though u WANTED to be a part of the HORRORS why aren’t you immediately taking this seriously ????

Emily Bauer

OH well that's interesting. That's so interesting. I am very calmly interested. HUH.

SentientBogOrb

i don’t recommend unless you work alone and won’t be judged for reacting to the plot in the episodes lol i listen to every new ep at work and have to reign in my excitement every time

Zoëjo

GEORGIEEEEEE!!!

J Burns

Right????

Mon221B

Seriously pondering whether I could get away with listening to this ep at work…waiting is too hard!

Erica

Ooooooh everyone's voice acting in this episode was SO good!

ethan

IT'S WORTH THE WAIT

ethan

JUMPS AROUND OH MY GODDD THE LAST SCENE

Charles H

You're right I did peak at the transcript

_C4L4M1TY_

Screaming rn thank u

Helena McCoy

I'm not looking at the transcript and I can only listen in like an hour and a half, this is taking every ounce of my willpower

Chloe

Ok but my Jonathan sims (the character) senses went crazy when they said “there’s a weird murderer who can kill you with your deepest fear and then make your corpse narrate it.” It sounds like Jon is feeding

George Humphreys

JONNY’S BACK WRITING!!😁😁 (love you too Alex dw)

Cyanmoon1

I have enjoyed all the episodes, but this was the first statement that gave me physical chills

J Burns

Okay adding on because I've finished the episode. What the FUCK. There was so much in this episode! Jonah Magnus voicing, another talking corpse, Gwen actually came out and told them about the 'externals', parallel Georgie.... This was Gertrude and Gerry levels of content, I loved it. My current theory is that these corpses are the TMA versions of people who died in the fearpocalypse transplanting their alternate selves somehow.

bruh really

Great episode once again

Anthony

it worked on me, after being accused of peeking i then stubbornly refused to 😅

Ellie J. B. R.

Whoooo! Georgie‘s here!!!

Anthony

GWEN…. AUGHHH my heart ;_; ugh.. Oh god it’s getting so hard to wait each week, I need to know!!!!!!!! There’s so much going on! Tim Fearon’s performance this ep was AMAZING, also. Augustus case readings are such a special treat.
