Ari
I love how it takes this long for Jon to realize the lighter is sus
Sinclair Cross
YOU STILL HAVE AN HOUR AND A HALF TO TELL ME WHAT ELSE IS GOING TO HAPPEN, AND I AM SO EXCITED
Carolyn Thraves
The last two words... perfect!
Rebecca Dupont
We always knew that lighter was gonna be something! Interesting that it was a anchor for the tapes.
Carolina Martins
ah so Jacob's statement (0.1) works as a warning to us as well
Alexandra DeCarlo
I love Annabelle so much
Eytan
Ok, seriously. I'm sort of ok with the entities moving over here to lurk behind our threshold, it's not like they can make things much worse. But if the last episode ends up being a ritual that manifests them, I'll be pissed.
Marie
The way I screeched 'THE LIGHTER!!!!' in this episode speaks to how masterfully this show has been written and put together. All the pieces coming together in a slowly dawning realisation is *chef's kiss* perfection.
Jess Nicolazzo
The payoff of this show is incredible. All the way through. I can not wait to go back to the beginning for a full relisten when it ends. I mean apart from the obvious, even the lighter was significant I mean it’s insane 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Lillian Collea
I guess we don't ignore the pit now?
Tahir Raines
I am honestly always impressed and awed by the connections and worldbuilding of this series.
Zorya Dolgushkin
Yes I think read that one too!! I'm like damn did you read the future or what!!
Zorya Dolgushkin
Oh god, you're so right!
Zorya Dolgushkin
jhshkflsh ahhh so good!!! I honestly have never been so happy to be so wrong because up until these last two episodes I for whatever reason really didn't think that the tapes had anything to do with the web. But it makes so much sense that they do and the pieces fitting together like this is so satisfying!! Annabelle's reveal was amazing and omgggg I'm on the edge of my seat and can't wait to see what happens next. Holy shit so many good one liners in this episode too, loving the humor as usual. Thank you!!
Kara Moskowitz
That was great. And, maybe Jon and Martin will save the world and both live!
NoMercyPercy
Omg omg omg omg it's so good. Also I'm just very happy there will no longer be any spider soundscaping (hopefully)
ThirdFromTheLeft
now THIS was some excellent horror. the dawning realization that the web reaching into another world was in fact the show itself gave me such a CHILL! and what a brilliant way to write the existence of the show into the story!!
Jamie Hilts
I feel like we already know what Jon chose. Because we're listening to the tapes.
jingqi
i was thinking it's extremely likely she intentionally made it seem like she didn't want him to throw it in the pit, when throwing it in the pit might actually serve the Web's plan
ag
[softly] .... fuck...
Michael Larsen
Spoiler Warning: They Web LIES!!! Destroy the archive, destroy Jonas, and the power does indeed flow into the nearest receptacle: but it sure as hell isn’t the tapes, it’s Jon! Also, who finds it interesting that Martin has just as easy a time manipulating the powers of the Web as he did the Lonely? Martin will save us all!
Sofia Gustafsson
I AM SCREAMING! This freaking podcast is just so good!
Deneb
All those centuries of planning and decades of scheming and yet the Web didn't account for its deadliest foe – "What if I throw it into the pit"
Bruna G
“[MUFFLED AGITATION] [MUFFLED ANXIETY]” Martin once again being relatable
Laurel Buchanan
First name in the Patreon list!! Thank you for this honor Alex - I feel like a VIP B)
Abigail
When Annabel said explosion I said “fucking spider lighter” out loud. My co-worker was so confused, lol

emma

YamiKakyuu
*lies down*
Juls SK Vernet
I AM FINE I AM FINE NO I AM NOT
Juls SK Vernet
To be dramatic otherwise the others would have killer her immediately without listening
gojo fujoshi
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA. that's the sound of me yelling
Bruna G
THIS IS GREAT BUT ALSO, I *THOUGHT* I WOULD HAVE *LESS* THEORIES AFTER THIS ONE
Bruna G
Why did she transform though? Was killing her there one of the ways to cement the doorway?
Clem
is jon jarchivist free to hold hands
Clem
sexy jon rights
dirtgrub
that sure did,,, happen!
Lena
"annabelle reveals that this wasn't even her final form" incredible stuff from jonny as always
vosqui

The Octopus Gallery
I definitely let out a very satisfied “Ha!” multiple times as the threads came together
MahtinSquad
I am screaming
Opaline illyria
I missed having level-headed Basira in the mix.
Liz M
Amazing
Dagmar
aaaaa amazing episode!! I got so freaked out by the spiderfication sfx
angel of dumpster fires
VINDICATION
Idris
because it knew it was eventually going to happen anyway, regardless of what it did. if you can't prevent something, control it instead.
Reid Sandlund
SO MUCH VINDICATION. Tying a tone of my theories together... I would like to add though, I had a bit of trouble understanding Annabelle in parts due to the pitch effects? I think it was just a but too deep that it made it hard to register. Love the ep tho!!!
Heather MacKenzie
As a person with arachnophobia, this episode literally made my skin crawl. But, damn! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I KNEW that lighter was part of the Web!
Arcturus
So if the Web didn't want the apocalypse, why did they create the perfect Archivist to bring about the apocalypse? I don't think the Web wants anything but *every* world to have the Fears. Using one ruined world to spread to every OTHER world. :thinking:
José Manuel Santiago Yepes
I finally get my shoutout!! My full name is a bit tricky to pronounce for non-Spanish speakers, sorry Alex hahaha
Catherine Lashley
To the person who’s tumblr post I saw that predicted this literally word for word - ily and I hope you’re having a good day
Pip Walker
Hand flapping and silent squealing.
Bruna G

Lurkin
Love Chioma's voice...
Lindsey Bradford
IT'S HAPPENING
jelmarose
Chekhov's lighter finally used!!! I keep saying this but every episode of season 5 is so amazing.
GugTheGoose
That was fun! Grateful for the transcript though, that distorted voice wasn't easy to parse.
Avanii
Absolutely amazing, no words just intense love for this podcast aaAAA
Gray
Annabelle stop giving me hope that Jon and Martin can end up okay!!!
