Did This FNAF Theory Just SOLVE Golden Freddy?! | MatPat Reacts To @Dual-Process-Theory

[Music] after learning of an unfortunate incident the location invol multiple spring failures the company has toit temporarily unfit for employee hi we know for a fact I like that just ended with the high that was that's just delightful [Music] hey guys and welcome to GT not live where today we're doing something that we haven't done in a while now which is solving Five Nights at Freddy's you know cuz I'm retired now so it's not my problem anymore uh no but uh in all seriousness uh you know on this channel we like to do things regarding Five Nights at Freddy's and we like to react to other people doing things that are five nights at Freddy's ated especially uh people who are trying to solve the lore of Five Nights at Freddy's and apparently a new one has come into play a new channel has entered the chat that we need to pay attention to usually it's some of the you know the the old hats that we're all familiar with at this point right you got the John fnafs of the world you got the ID's fantasies the r toasts the hyperd droids of the world that we've done live streams with we've collaborated with all the good stuff right but now all of a sudden a new Contender has entered and it was one that was recommended by a lot of you over on the subreddit and it's dual process Theory that's right yeah um I saw this thumbnail circulating around I saw it recommended a bunch on the game theorist subreddit so if you're over there you know we I'm still there I'm all I'm looking at all the memes we have a new meme review that's coming up soon yes yes so uh if you have any new memes that you want to get in please send them in because uh we're going to be reacting to them here shortly but uh I saw this one recommended a bunch and true to form I've tried to stay blind to it so I don't know anything I also saw that it was 2 hours and I was on vacation when I think it was uploaded and I'm like this is interesting maybe for another day but Ash you've actually looked into this yes and and you're like yes this this merits us having a conversation about I sure did so you know I like to stay active in the space and watch what everyone's doing so when this came up for me and I saw it was 2 hours I was like oh boy okay but I also didn't recognize the name dual process Theory can can we also real quick can we just call that out the fact that YouTube videos at this point are movie length or higher right it is overwhelming they're either like a minute or they're multiple hours there is no middle ground on YouTube anymore and it's it's I'm not particularly happy about it right it's like we're at two ends extreme ends of the spectrum now it either has to be short or I am watching like a featurelength film yeah it sucks man like and and I don't mean it like sucks in terms of content like I'm I'm proud of all the creators who are able to put their videos out there that take multiple hours I just don't have the time anymore to watch that like that's that's that's such a huge commitment to sit down and watch anyway so okay we are you have you can guide me through this yes I can okay great so you're you're familiar I am familiar and I feel like it is worth calling out these two sisters who are behind dual process Theory I believe their names are Corey and Connie okay they a lot of um wit and humor internet humor to this Theory and it's very active I find that when I was watching it logically I was with them every step of the way and they were building building building um in a way that was very fun to watch and I love when new theorists come on the scene so this was really cool to witness especially like a Duo of theorists yeah I was going to say that's it's a different take for sure yeah that's not something that we've seen before but having I think having two minds talking to each other and kind of like countering each other during the theorist Pro like process I think that's wonderful so I'm really excited for you to watch this okay for the next five installments six installments yes we have snacks don't worry we do have some snacks we have a delicious brownies as well as delicious trail mix yeah Coury of tomorrow yes shout outs to tomorrow we're staying fed we self FNAF and we're not kidding is what they say dual process Theory and I actually like now that you explain the description the the logo of like the two eyeballs kind of coming in sync with each other right that's cool I like it because this thing is 2 hours long I I want to hop into it immediately without a whole lot of witty banter of course it is one of those things though that I should call out right now cuz I don't think I've explicitly called this out since the fashion show but uh the stuff that I've been wearing lately on GT live is uh Lumen it's our latest merch launch uh not even merch anymore it's it's apparel launch I wanted to make along with the rest of the team something that's more bright and colorful and fun sort of stuff that you're not going to be able to find in stores and that's available right now via the links down below this video in the description wherever uh all the the have been wearing it lately but like you know Finding cool multicolored like gradient jackets or stuff that's inspired by Springtime with like really nice embroidery details um like this flower pattern here with this black shirt it's just really thoughtfully made stuff uh that's higher quality than a lot of the stuff that you're going to find online and especially in this age of Drop Shipping where stuff is really rushed and you know thrown together and and sold at the lowest common Den Dominator we really wanted to create stuff that felt different and unique and fun and just beautiful um and so you have stuff like this you know this this cool like light puffer jacket with this Floral Pattern across it you know in in different colors and palettes and styles that you wouldn't see um you know where else you're going to find like a a cotton candy light jacket you know for for the spring you don't find it right and especially if if you're looking for a guy oriented clothing like I'm always looking for bright colors and and fun shapes and and things with nice detail and you just can't find it right and so that is what we made this is Lumen this is the new the new style of it um the next collection that we're going to be doing later this year is going to be FNAF inspired and then another one poppy inspired but this is kind of our one or two times a year where we're doing something that is kind of off the Beaten Track that isn't going to be inspired by uh any sort of Ip or whatever this is just something that we wanted to create which is awesome but yeah no at the end of the day right the the idea of lumen cuz it's not Theory Weare anymore it's Lumen uh because not always going to be about theories it's not always where kind of has this connotation of of merchandise and things like that and what we're creating is both celebratory of the theoris community but also celebrating all the IP that we cover and just more thoughtful about the world around you which is why this collection was inspired by like spring flowers and the colors and shapes of them in a lot of cases so you have these this cool pair of joggers that fit really nice they're super comfy but again it's all like nicely embroidered with detail all down the leg just a higher level of stuff all those items plus a whole lot more are available in in the description down below um so if you see anything that's interesting place an order uh they're available right now uh would would love to see more loomin out there just make the world a brighter more colorful place and uh yeah like I said stay tuned probably towards the end of this summer I think maybe end of summer early fall for that uh FNAF collection that hopefully will be coming out we'll see all right promo aside that's you know Shameless self-promotion out of the way let's hop into we solved FNAF and we're not kidding this is a how many videos have they done uh this is their only Theory video this was the first one wait really yes good for them right clap and half already for you guys well done dual process Theory uh okay when they say they're not kidding I mean with two major points listed in the chapter timestamps below if you want to get to the big stuff and not the other little things we've undone some deeply held fandom beliefs that's great I support that 100% please deconstruct things that have been considered basically confirmed for the longest time but when looking at them they just don't hold up not as much as we've discovered yeah and it and again I I think this is one of the things that frustrated people when I would do it in theories and I'm glad that other people are feeling the ability to do it which is deconstruct things I think because of the the pressure with the kind of built-in lore that we had created on the channel as well as just like within the fandom questioning pre-built assumptions is something that is is difficult for people like you want to hold on to any answers that you can have but but as we've seen the franchise has evolved so much that things get added in might have gotten changed or refined or clarified in some ways so it's h one of those things that yeah I think every once in a while when a new game comes out or a new series of stuff comes out it's worth re-examining some of the assumptions and things that were confirmed to see if they still hold up so if you here to watch all two hours sit back grab some pizza I don't have any pizza and hold back all potential hate argument comments until we finished I will probably talk through it in real time otherwise I'm just going to be silent for the next two hours which is great don't leave any hate comments on this video no ha no hate comments trust me I've been through that so there we go here it is intro here I'm going to watch it at one and a half we're good with one and a half yeah man okay I'm so excited a new FNAF theorist welcome to the fold I said to him oh will not have every story has to have significance you know sometimes uh you know sometimes a story is just a story you try to read into every little thing and Find meaning and everything anyone says you'll just drive yourself crazy had a friend do it once wasn't pretty we talked about starting off with this hippo solid Choice end up believing something you shouldn't believe thinking something you shouldn't think or or assuming something you shouldn't assume you know I do know I I've been there with the releas of h 2 the new L introduced in the game raised quite a few maybe maybe say a little bit too fast let's go 1.25 yeah questions aners you know like most FNAF games but in the little details of the secret ending crucial parts of the original timeline were given ones that we believe can help us solve the overly complicated lore of this game series true yes and and I and I I think I'm glad that they're starting off with talking about help want 2 or at least calling out that detail cuz it felt like in help want to they were being very explicit about early parts of this franchise so and and it's one of those things that people lightly addressed I was unfortunately kind of on my way out of it was you know on my way out of theor ing at that point so I was mapping out kind of like my final theories and and this and that so working in some deep discussion about those parts wasn't really something that made sense for me to do like it was opening up a big can of worms right as I was trying to come to a conclusion of my personal narrative arc on the channel so it's cool to see people discussing this when it felt like it it was under discussed outside of you know a couple of channels like R toast did a lot of theories on this one hi I'm Cory and I'm Connie and we just solved FNAF awesome great old words for a first video Cory shut up I'm aware of what a hefty CL is ever since the second game fans have been scrambling to attempt to piece together the lore every installment may solve a few things but honestly just adds more questions there there's a there's a lot of game theory and film Theory thumbnails in I'm just I'm recognizing a lot of clickbait green and a lot of clickbait red in there just saying recognize a lot of film Theory red and Game Theory green do we know everything no we' be don't to claim that yeah for instance we just forgot to put the shadow animatronics here I don't know what those are not only changing details but revealed leld fand of beliefs that are when looking over everything just plainly not true I also want to clarify something before we start the point of this video isn't just a FNAF timeline video honestly this video is written around two key points and building everything up else around them you need to understand one before you understand the other or more likely you need to believe one before you can believe the other point is to look all the way back with a clean slate which is what we did and start over from the beginning get us all at least a similar new page so that we can continue theorizing in a way that actually makes progress instead of going in circles yeah and and that's another thing that I think is important for people to remember is even for me when I would look at making like a new big like timeline video or a new Theory like I I'd say like once every year or every two years I would kind of try to wipe this l and look at kind of like the evidence as it existed to see if there were New Perspectives or hey taking the most recent information in mind how is that changing retroactively things that we've seen in the past which is why some details some of the Minor Details that used to be big points fade away with time because their importance largely gets lost and and what's more important is kind of like the newest Revelations and the most explicit Revelations which recontextualized stuff in the past right that I think there was an episode at the Midway point of the 68 episodes that we did on FNAF or that I did on FNAF that talked about that where you kind of have to have your criteria evidence your stacking of evidence points where there are certain things that are physical pieces of evidence that are like the toes and the buttons and this and that the design elements that are concrete but those have to be kind of subsumed by the most important piece of evidence which is whatever has come most recently because that is taking into consideration the most recent Viewpoint of the franchise from from the creators from the game makers whatever right it is the most recent upto-date version of the story in their minds and that can change things that have come before first let's get some disclaimers out of the way great oh jeez oh oh jeez okay frame oh my gosh there's a lot of them okay I here everything we say here is speculation yes okay there's evidence if you believe you got something wrong that's valid if you harass us don't harass people that greed we presume that you know the Baseline of FNAF awesome if you don't I I do know a baseline I think people might argue with that but I do have a baseline as well as a lot of different ideas of different ways I could go um in terms of are the books in continuity oo we'll be using the books as supporting evidence yep that's great things that are in the books can support evidence in the games but this happened because yeah fazu yeah that's great uh a lot of our theories are our own but you'll see us quote several theorists yes cited on screen that's great yeah everyone has had probably some over lapping thoughts always an effort to keep this video less than a week long neglecting Minor Details yeah who did Bite of 87 yes agree great love that and number seven we will be cussing in this video what we're not sorry adult language so insanely love our written form is 50 pages long yeah that's on you for adding a bibliography let's begin bibliography okay AP family in the beginning of a tragedy okay to begin with first we must question when exactly Faz entertainment became a corporation prior to the release of security breach most fans presumed it began in the 1970s or ' 80s with the original fredbears Family Diner however one of the collectibles in security breach is a poster for the wonderful fredbears singing show the poster is in black and white which doesn't mean a whole lot considering the first color printer wouldn't work until 1977 so this only places the beginning of Freddy's at before the'80s however we get other important information first the drawing of fredbear with pie cut eyes which was a popular style mainly in the 20s to 30s by the time color became popular in animation actual eyes could be drawn so possibly this poster is either from that era or invoking Nostalgia for the rubber hose days which would imply something connecting fredbear to that time period I I really well I remember when we did this Theory and I really liked I like this as a clue cuz it got back to something that I think FNAF had lost for a while which was leaning into some of the real world evidence or real world references that you can use to deduct the timeline in some sense you know you have all these other posters then all of a sudden you have this one that's so decidedly different and very clearly referencing animation Styles uh Aesthetics uh black and white technology things like that which you know for a couple years there it was all just like lore lore lore you know character design details this and that but to have something that was very clearly indicating like a time period felt really satisfying I think the last time you had really felt that was with what FNAF 6 briefly when uh the kind of fake miname that led into it Scot on Scott games was teasing it with like old Atari style promos with like rainbow graphics and this old like very pixelated chunky art style that was of the Atari age um so it had been a a good number of years before we had gotten something like this so I like that they're leaning into that and I agree like this is one that we kind of talked about in our episodes and I I like I still I've pitched out a lot of things about Five Nights of Freddy's this one I feel good about as well but specifically look at the price on the ticket 50 cents general admission when tracking ticket prices we know that adult and mission for carnivals jumped up to a dollar a ticket by the 1950s in comparison many Carnival tickets from the' 40s including the 1939 to 40 Worlds Fair which was less a carnival and more a showcase but you know important Place sold for 50 c if we can narrow down this poster to any time period we can quickly narrow it down to the 1940s is this important no I just have friends that like dating things I personally think the brand being as old as the 40s is unlikely that it may be older than Henry and William themselves maybe it's just a 30-year cycle thing nevertheless we know at the very least that Fred Family Diner began in the 1970s or early 1980s fallfest which seems to be connected to Freddy's has a poster for 1970 in help wanted to which could state that Fazbear as an idea or corporation started around then but nevertheless we know at the very least that fredbear's Family Diner began in the 1970s or early 1980s the main time yeah and and that's again one of those things where because it was the end of my time FNAF theorizing I didn't get a chance to do it I know Tom did a short about that poster I think it was a short about the 1970s poster um again it feels very important cuz we've seen multiple fall fests at this point we saw in Help Wanted one's DLC we saw fallfest 83 I believe it was um and so for the Help Wanted 2 to reference fallfest 1970 shows that it's a repeated event across multiple years and that you know it it predates 83 by a long long time right so this was a kind of yearly calendar event uh which is important you're also seeing animatronics like Carney present there which is kind of Henry's old style of animatronic with kind of the the uh movable jaw uh similar to the rockar animatronics from FNAF 6 so it's one of those things that it it feels very important and it's much much much earlier than I think anyone expected time we see it is in 1983 where it seems to be an established restaurant here is where we enter speculation on the owners of the restaurant we know for a fact that the co-owners of the restaurants at the time of the missing children incident were William Aton and Henry they don't seem to be full owners of the franchise which has a company behind it but whether they started the franchise and sold it or simply joined the company to open restaurants is up to interpretation yeah also note Henry and Charlotte's last name may not be Emily as the name was found on her grave in the silver and well it could have easily been a middle name the ultimate guide she's referred to as Charlotte Emily but he's just referred to as Henry implying it may not be a shared name but it does exist as a surname and does mean rival so that's what we got for now William yeah agreed I I 100% agree with that too I think the you know I think we all jump to Emily as the last name just because we were looking for a last name but I agreed that it it always struck me as weird and I used Emily just cuz it was there but 100% agree I think it's more likely a middle name than anything else um I think the evidence they cite there I think is valid I could also see the character Encyclopedia neglecting using Henry Emily if it is the last name just because that would confirm that there's a connection there and in this franchise they don't confirm anything um but no I agree my gut says that it was always intended to be a middle name it's just you know we as a community wanted to call him something wanted some balance to the name Aton seems to have been the one running fredbears which worked out because his family lived walking distance from the building it is very likely that their sister location Freddy Fazbear's pizzeria was also open around the same time as fredbears possibly falling under Henry's jurisdiction we know this due of the existence of Chica and Foxy toys merchandise and television appearances during FNAF 4 despite them not appearing at fredbears Five Nights at Freddy's 3 also references a sister location that was open at the same time as Freddy's which seems to have closed due to Spring lock failures after learning of an unfortunate incident mulp failures has to temporarily for employees hi we know for a I like that just ended with the high that was that's just delightful oh man four characters had at least been established by that point Freddy Bonnie Chica foxy fredbear and spring Bonnie were also established in merchandise with the others as we see separate fredbear and Freddy plushies in the crying child's room and a little kid with a spring Bonnie finger trap in the cut scenes who could be that's not important no matter what bears was established we know that the Freddy Fazbear specific brand began in 1983 due to novelty coin you can find so there's that yeah the the I think that's def since since the VR games have been introduced into the franchise they have hit this point over the head over and over again and I think that there's really no debate about it at this point even in the I think it's even in the books they've really hit this point home that like 1983 Freddy Fazbear's Pizza is established the Freddy Fazbear brand is established in 1983 very important um but yeah they call out a really interesting detail here which is exactly right this idea of there there has to be almost two different locations two different franchises and I think when FNAF 4 first came out there was this idea of like oh it has to all be one connected franchise that is a timeline never before had the idea of there being two parallel franchises if not three with circus babies which we'll see what they get to but like this idea that there are two par franchises existing at the same time with basically the same slate of animatron you know golden bunny Golden Bear over here similar Bunny and bear over here but plus two other characters I think at the time people are like that's insane that's crazy why would you ever do that that seems so unrealistic that the same characters would kind of coexist in two ve two separate but related franchise just seemed weird right but I think now they're calling out what is exactly right you know you have these two parallel franchises one with one subset of characters one with another subset of characters that are related under the same corporate umbrella but that's really the only explanation that you can have for having these characters coexisting at the same time it was just a level of realistic business or a level of you know like business structure that seemed so Advanced and complicated for the story that was being told at the time but yeah 100% agree yes to have handled business and entertainment Henry meanwhile is confirmed to have been the technician within the franchise as he later refers to the suits as my Creations this is supported in the Silver Eyes in which Henry is stated to be the creator of all Freddy's suits Henry your friend Charlie's father do you not know they made this place well one of his first suits yeah they do say this a bunch and even in even in the fazber like if you're talking about book evidence and as supporting evidence right which is what they're doing they use it as lightly supporting evidence and and I think even within the books there are grades of that where I feel like the silverized Trilogy was the closest to being most supportive and then you get to like tales of the pizza Plex and and uh Fazbear frights which are even more steps removed you get these like gradations of equivalence to the franchise and and levels of support right so but yeah across the board this is another point that I feel like the books have tried to hammer home is Henry created the animatronics he is the primary creator of at least the first generations of animatronics before Aton got involved in like sister location era right including both the endo and exoskeletons as well as the spring lock variants the spring lock suits as any FNAF fan will tell you are very important to understand when creating the animatronics for their restaurants William and Henry decided to create suits that could function as both animatronics and costumes ones that could perform on stage with robotic movements but could also be worn as outfits to mingle safely with guests thus the spring lock suits with a hand crank the inner Machinery was wound back and held against the edges of the suit with the springwalk mechanisms leaving room for a human to fit in side unfortunately however the spring locks were unreliable to say the least any wrong movement or introduction of fluid such as spilled water tears blood and the spring locks would set off sending the endoskeleton back into place whether or not someone was still inside this would cause an intense and painful death while the instructions tell the employees to find somewhere quiet to bleed out it's actually more likely that the suits would cause more internal than external bleeding the pieces would still be in place holding most of the blood in however its piercing of vital organs and arteries could not be understated it would be a long painful death and the owners knew this as stated previously it was in the instructions to find a safe place to bleed out rather than frighten guests in the Silver Eyes there is a given possibility of surviving a spring walking as William is stated to have done so but there isn't any wait what to say about that I hate this drawing I hate this drawing so much why is he naked on it is weird I I don't disagree that I as I have read every piece of media that this franchise has released including the graphic novels of all the different horror stories and the trilogy and stuff yeah this this drawing weird there's some weird drawings in general across the franchise uh this is definitely one of the strange ones it's like icky and then don't even get me started on the the wild art styles that just like vacillate in quality when it comes to like the tales of the pizza Plex SL um Fazbear frights stories where they've graphic novelized certain just kind of like random smattering of the short stories that they had and the art styles are all over the map some are great some are like artistic and interpretive some it's it's a very strange uh extension of the franchise but they're there and they exist agreed with them though of surviving a springing as William is stated to have done so but there isn't any mention of this in the games Universe I suppose it could be possible if medical attention was received but that would require the employee to be found and rescued in a reasonable time frame something that would be hard if they went to the back rooms those back rooms are also important in the instructions the safe place to bleed out was noted as the hidden back room in the establishments each Freddy's location was given a secret room accessible to employees but hidden from all maps and inaccessible to free roaming animatronics these rooms are where the murders are going to take place and where springtrap will be stuck for a long while so it's also important to keep them in mind a lot of this is pretty dangerous honestly the back rooms were supposedly made for staff breaks but anyone can see why a hid in room off mat would be a dangerous thing to make and the spring walks damn I think here we should really just consider that William and Henry were Adrenaline Junkies or at the very least a bit careless with safety until later events I mean it was the 80s it was the 80s yeah yep it was the 80s yeah and and and to be fair I I don't think any of this is is particularly controversial I know the beginnings of the timeline are iffy and we're basing a lot of information off of that like initial black and white poster of Fred bear singing show but but even and whereas me in in one of my final timelines I tried to kind of like come up with a narrative solution to kind of tie up those dots and and figure out how it all worked together I recognize then trying to sell a cohesive Nar you have to extrapolate and interpret a lot of stuff and and make some guesses um which I was trying to do just to make a different timeline after doing like a 100 timelines in my time of doing FNAF coverage um and they've kind of glossed over that and just generally agreed like it was from this era and I think we're in agreement there but a lot of this makes lessons I think this is generally understood stuff we all know how safe everyone was being [Music] then when it's hot out this is a great place to spend the day with your family now we discussed frood being open at the same time the other important thing to understand about the co-owners at this point is their families namely their children if ether had a wife they're not mentioned or important Mrs Emily gets a few mentions in the silver eyes as having left following Charlie's death but here what's they say here sorry she's also supposed to be brunette why do they make her blonde for this yeah right is weird but no narrative significance outside of that that's that is one and again they're calling out like it's it's this minor call out on their part but it is one of those things that is frustrating especially in in a franchise where hair color is is important um because they're not wrong right uh Mrs or that's Mrs Emily is supposed to be brunette at one point and then yeah the the graphic novel shows are as Blonde which is strange um especially because a lot of the supporting material in the books do lean heavily onto hair color like they and and hairstyle curly black hair is one of those things and I've talked about this in previous Theory but curly black hair is one of those things that is repeatedly mentioned over and over again in relation to Cassidy specifically um or or at least the one you shouldn't have killed It's usually the one that is like Curly black hair is the person stuffed inside golden Freddy in a lot of cases so and throughout the Fazbear frights novelas short stories they keep going back to this curly black hair curly black hair around this like mysterious entity the the most powerful of the ghosts right and it never pays off and it never goes anywhere but it was one of those things that would pop up and be called out very specifically over and over again this you know he would reach into the suit and suddenly he felt curly black hair and like oh a child in the distance with curly black hair whatever and it felt very intentional and so then you get to moments like what they just showed which is in the book it's described as brunette brunette but then you see a visual of oh and it's blonde those nuances are sometimes pretty frustrating and it's it's one of those questions of like well are we being serious about the hair color or are we not like are we taking that like how much attention are we paying to this um but yeah just so we're all aware it's one of those things that never paid off so much that it didn't work into a theory at all but curly black hair that is an important detail at least in the FNAF verse from four years ago 3 years ago back when uh Fazbear frights was a thing Mrs Aton is only implied to exist in security breach and only vaguely yeah Henry Emily's kid is easy her name is Charlotte Emily referred to as Charlie in the novels the novels also reference a twin named Sammy but like Mrs Emily he has no lore relevance outside of being a rcon redering as to who Henry's dead kid is and there isn't a single implication of his existence in any other Universe yeah that's that's another really frustrating one is the novels make this huge deal about Charlie's twin and this twin who is kidnapped at an early age and lo and behold did didn't exist it's it's a weird detail in the book where it's like I William aton's like I kidnapped you actually Charlie and it's it's weird it's it's also weird because it shows up again in the movies a little bit right where in the movie you have Mike and his his it's not his twin but his younger brother who is kidnapped uh by William Aton so you have William Aton as this repeated use of a kidnapper um not just a killer but a kidnapper um which is an interesting detail and a weird commonality between the silverized novels and the movie which feels like they're telling parallel stories in some way um you know up to this point we've always thought of William Aton as just a killer right he takes people to the back and kills them or he kills someone in the back alley of the pizzeria but in both the movie and in the silverized novel he kidnaps a kid and kills them right or does something to we don't know what happens in the movie right but it's he he has a kidnapper first and foremost which is weird and doesn't show up a lot in the games but seems like it's an important character trait for other FNAF media which can inform the interpretation of the story that's being told in the games the novels also gave Charlotte's age though it's inconsistent by book in the first book she states she was seven in 1985 which would put her birth at 1978 the fourth closet's gravestone puts her birth in 1980 her death in 1983 the poet for Charlie and help wanted to was also unlocked via a 1983 code although that may not be a reference to her death year it may just be a reference to the original sister location Easter egg either way we know that at the yeah it's weird that I I thought that that was weird too and help wanted to where you have a very specific code 1983 which again is very important date for the franchise but it unlocks the puppet which doesn't seem like it matches in a lot of ways it's it's an odd detail that again is like it are we just using 1983 arbitrarily just because that's we know that that's an important date you know why is that associated with why is the puppet the one being unlocked here maybe it's just random and oh 1983 is an important date in the franchise and also here is one of the characters that's important right there might not be a connection between the two time of her death she was incredibly young Aton tends to grab kids that are under 10 years old and aton's got his own family too William Aton has three known children Michael Elizabeth and the third one who is known in the fan base as the crying child now I'm going to be real we believe we have been told the crying child's name and once we get to that part of the video we will refer to them as such oh oh we they they believe yes oh really yes I mean I if you please please tell me what his name is it's not Evan I I hope you say it I I hope they don't say it's EV I if you go back a few frames you're going to see something awesome on the screen the kid who cries all the time crying child this now keep going now I'm going to be real we believe we have been told the crying child name oh there yes oh thank goodness oh that makes me so happy I I cuz I agree I feel like the name is out there somewhere and I you know so I I yes I know the fan base really insists that it's Evan because of a very complicated way of solving the foxy grid slash you know from the from the instruction manual um or the uh on boarding manual the the security log book um and people for years kept trying to push me to say Evan oh stop calling him crying child he's EV he's I really don't think he is I think that the evidence for his name being Evan is so flimsy and the solution that was come up for the solution to the foxy grid was so convoluted and kind of broke the like it's like here's three letters that make sense and here's a fourth one that if you bend it and stretch it you get n surprise it just never felt right to me so good I like where they're headed you just wait and see where they're headed great I I mean the fact fact that they don't think it's EV makes me so happy and once we get to that part of the video we will refer to them as such until we get there though we'll be initializing him as CC Michael is definitely the oldest and seems to be in his tweens are early teens by around FNAF War which would place his birth around 1970 as for the other two we don't have specific years or ages however I do believe that is actually older than Elizabeth contrary to fandom belief I yeah I yeah I guess the fandom does believe that it's it is one of those nebulous ones that it's close and that people debate it I I don't disagree with that the only hint towards her existence in FNAF 4 is when you can walk into her room upon which her only toy is a broken mangle FNAF 2 States that mangle was created with toddlers in mind and the toddlers are the ones who take him apart which applies to me that Elizabeth is a toddler in 1983 I think that's a really good evidence point I I I think that that's a really good call out cuz they're absolutely right you know FNAF 2 makes it very clear mangle is take apart put back together and there's a lot of toy references in FNAF 2 if you if you believe in dream theory or even like a root of dream theory that hey all of this is the creation of these events in someone's mind but can be rooted in real world things yeah Elizabeth taking breaking apart and putting back together this toy as a toddler yeah and and a crying child is old enough to be able to walk home on his own and be supervised on you know by his older brother but be able to you know function on his own yeah would imply that she is the youngest I think that this is a great call out this would explain her absence from the plot she's at daycare or with her parents or parents or it's simply too young to be participating in any events another long debate in the fan base is which child died first we know Michael died last but the other three are up in the air to be honest it seems very likely that of the three left Charlie CeCe Elizabeth Elizabeth died last firstly because as mentioned she was likely a toddler in 1983 and we need to age up a little more we also know for certain due to the blueprints of the fun times that each robot was made with child luring and kidnapping in mind and the scooper was made to remove Remnant which Aton would have no idea about until he started experimenting with possession this puts Elizabeth solidly behind the other two as for yeah I you know it feels like it should be that way 100% And and I don't disagree with that at all I I think there is so much evidence on both sides of that it's it's so hard to say the the evidence that and and I think that's the way it's intended to be the evidence that just drives me insane and I and I think I've made this clear but I I will continue to make it clear is the FNAF for lines that the crying child hears or kind of like talks about which is the whole remember what you saw you know remember what you saw well what did he see you know his his dad putting a suit on a guy in the back room like remember what you saw run the other way and then all of a sudden you're getting these hallucinations and and nightmares of animatronics with stomach mouths right it's it is so odd for the the crying child to be scared of the animatronics and I he could be scared as a child like that there's always the explanation of he's scared as a child and he's imagining these things right I think that that was probably what was intended but it also lines up so well with oh circus baby opens up a claw jumps out it has a stomach mouth and kills someone right kills the daughter I think that is retrospective evidence and and retroactive evidence I think the intention yeah is for elizab Elizabeth to die last though it does feel like that whoops it's been debated onabe solidly behind the other two as for Charlie and CC it's been debated on whether Charlie was killed in Williams grief over Cc or if CC was traumatized by Charlie's death I believe that in help one2 and FNAF 6 we are given the information that CC dies first the help pointed two information we'll get to when we get to it but as for FNAF 6 midnight motorist is a very controversial miname but with multiple Clues pointing to it it really seems like this is about William Aton his change in color is likely to differentiate him from the previous game's Michael Sprite at the time of sister location's release confusion on whether Michael was the purple guy or just a purple guy was at an all-time high or it could be because a purple sprite just wouldn't look good against a black background the secret mini game featured within midnight motorist is labeled in the files as later that night considering the look of the car and the rain texture it's very very likely to be referring to Charlotte's death it's later on the night Charlotte died after William drove away but while it was still raining the story shows him drunk driving to a place called Juniors that won't let him in likely a bar that's keeping him from getting more drunk the biggest proof of this is the guy standing outside kicking him out pretty likely a bouncer he has the power to keep him out and is already standing outside the important part we need to discuss here is Juniors because it establishes that later the night Charlotte died fredbears has been closed the path between Juniors and the driver's house is the same as the path between fredbears and the crying child's okay hold up hold up I I love that sorry I was distracted by R toast jumping around too so he's about okay already standing outside the important part we need to discuss here is Juniors because it establishes that later the night Charlotte died fredbears has been closed the path between Juniors and the driver's house is the same as the path between fredbears and the crying the path between Juniors and the driver's house is the same as the path between fredbears and the crying Childs okay Childs if after is the driver that makes Juniors the new building occupying what used to be fredbears Juniors was fredbears Clos down and turned into a bar FNAF 2 establishes it is interesting it I I do question it a little bit like it is the same path I I get what you're going for and I also in in one of my early theories especially when midnight motorist first came out I really wanted Juniors to be something important all than just a bar which is what it seemed to be on the surface right it's like here's a random bar named Juniors for some re it's just very strange um here's a bar and and yeah to to the idea of he's just kicked out and and by the end again of of my FNAF theorizing officially it was one of those things where I'm like yeah it it was a bar let's I over complicated it in an effort to make pieces fit more cleanly together and not just have like this is the random explanation but aam's Razer simplest explanation wins there's a guy out front who's kicking you out of a place because you're reckless and cuz you were there earlier it's it's probably because you're drunk right it's very typical bar Behavior the reason I'm skeptical about this connection normally I'm like oh that's a cool connection the reason I'm skeptical about this like oh it's the same path connection is because if you look here the path between fredbears and the house is a sidewalk right but what we're seeing often do is drive in a car through a forested area area and so it implies a scale difference and it implies a a geographic geologic difference right like here the crying child is walking to his house through a park and through like a playground right and there and we see very explicitly a street that is not kind of following that same Arc right and so what the difference here is the car is following alongside roadway that are forested there's forests there's Big Trees on either side in fact you can get out of the car and go to a grave site there and so well the when you zoom out yes it follows the same path when you look at some of the details and and whether they would actually map onto each other one-on-one don't think that's necessarily the case I appreciate what they're going for but I I do disagree a little bit with kind of the conclusion there Juniors was fredbears closed down and turned into a bar FNAF 2 establishes that fredbears was the first location we're going to try to contact the original restaurant owner I think the name of the place was redar Family Diner something like that this means that Charlotte died at Freddy's and not fredbears like in the books which can be backed up by Freddy being the animatronic serving cake in FNAF 2 and not fredbear but it also means that if fredbears is closed that's a good that's a good call out um yeah I I I think that that is a good call out the fact that she dies at Fred D's and not fredbears exactly cuz you don't have a yellow bear serving you have of a brown bear yes the bite has already happened the crying child Was Bitten at fredbears and fredbears is closed by the time Charlotte died meaning the crying child has to be bitten first and thus the tragedy of the afed family begins with cce's trauma surrounding the animatronics it has never been directly stated why exactly he fears them though it should be noted that he seems to only fear the robots and not the characters themselves yeah I after all the plush animals are his friends especially his fredbear plush which talks to and Comforts him he's here he's there he's everywhere it's all conf thank you for that that that that warms my heart it warms the cockal my cockles have been warmed I please don't say it like that what the cockles in my heart have they been warmed is there is there a synonym that you can use besides cockal what's wrong with cockal I don't like the sound of it sorry to hear that it's the part of my heart that's been warmed sufficiently warmed here what's what's the synonym of cockal cockle synonym um let's see see you can't find it a small shallow boat that's different cockle and not my hashtag not my cockal an edible burrowing B valve mollusk with a strong ribbed shell different yeah very strong ribbing on that cockle but no Jesus make it end find me a synonym of cockal and I'll they use it I mean are you you're refering have you have you ever eaten cockal they're they're actually pretty tasty do you think I've eaten [ __ ] Matthew you might have I have not it's a very common food I are they cockal now I've never seen cockal in the wild oh I'm sure you maybe you didn't know they were cockal I'm sure you've seen cockal in a while where can not eat cockal I mean you're not going to the Red Lobster and eating cockal no but if you're going to like uh a a slightly more advanced seafood restaurant yeah you might get some cockos oh okay for Stephanie's for Stephanie's Mother's Day present I took her to a restaurant we ate a bunch of cockos oh okay oh okay yeah we've been to this before I didn't know that cockal were a thing that you can order at this location yeah but yeah maybe next time I'm there I'll I'll try a [ __ ] and then uh see how Justified you were in that word choice yeah well that's that's also not the part of my heart though you're still not talking about the cockles of my heart I cockos are like the the the rooms of my heart the chambers the the little corners of my heart not the several weedy plants of the pink family see there's a lot of definitions of cockal that I even I didn't know uh cockle verb uh there's the uh pucker wrinkle the wrinkles of my heart the wrinkles of my heart they're warming the wrinkles of my heart there it is I need to be worried about that if if my heart's getting wrinkled the crevices crevices there it is the crass yep okay anyway everywhere call Psy it's all but confirmed that fredbear has his father's voice as we see a similar fredbear plush with a walkie-talkie in aon's headed bunker and his final words to CC let me put you back together mirror what Michael says his father requested he do with Elizabeth I put her back together just like you asked me too also note that the walkie-talkie near a fredbear plush in the sister location secret room implies that the bunker was active and in use during 1983 yeah whatever the hell that means right whatever whatever that means you know I and I think that again that gets to the question of I'm excited to see where they go with circus babies cuz that's where things get really complicated right the idea that he is scared of the machines like I I I think that's the thing you just have to fall back on right is that he is a young boy who is just scared of the robots which is just weird and I and I think that's the the frustrating thing with all of this is just the fact that he has the plushies in his room I guess he's thrown them in a corner so it shows that he's kind of scared of them but he carries one around with him but he's scared of them the again that is why FNAF 4 has always been so endlessly frustrating is the way it's trying to tell its story is is inconsistent and and can be interpreted in a lot a lot of different ways right and so you could just say oh yeah he's a scared kid who is scared of the animatronics because they are big robots and guess what a lot of kids were scared of Chuck-E-Cheese which is why this franchise exists in the first place right but if he's so scared of chuckecheese then why would he be having a bunch of plushes of the characters in his room you know it's a lot of clues that all seem to contradict each other but yeah aam's Razer again is like the easiest solution here is that he is scared of the robots and thus that is what he saw be careful of be be careful of what you saw but if this is afton's voice and again you get back to this question of if that is afton's voice coming through the plush plush uh psychic friend fredbear you know what what is why is Aton say that be careful of what you saw what do he see like and and what does Aton know that his kid saw and why does Aton want his kid to be scared of those things right if that is Afton talking to his son through psychic friend fredbear what is he saying like what what is he actually talking about in that moment that's the problem you know that's the challenge there uh whereas if Elizabeth dies first it's like oh you saw your sister get killed or you saw something scary happen or if he sees Charlie die it's like well be careful what you I'll stay away from him like it there's reason for Afton to scare his kid away from the animatronics if Elizabeth has died and it is there is a motivation for Aton to scare his kid away from the animatronics if he is gaslighting his kid into believing like oh you saw Charlie die from an animatronic or something not it Wason me you know whereas if crying child dies first I don't know the motivation for Aton being in his bunker talking to his son through a walkie-talkie in a in a stuffed Bear's body that's the biggest problem with Elizabeth dying last I think and that's the endless frustration so anyway I I think it's neither here nor there I think it's one of those minor points that doesn't necessarily change anything I mean it does actually it changes a lot of things it changes motivations it changes a lot we know the general flow of the story it's it's one of those frustrating things that no one answer is ever going to be truly satisfying though no matter how you stack it up why William is using a bear to communicate with him and not just talking to his kids directly is still a m for the ages and it still doesn't explain the question we just brought up why is CC afraid of the animatronics originally the hint given to fan base was what is seen in the shadows is easily misunderstood in the mind of a child and many interpreted this as him seeing someone getting into a Freddy's costume and becoming terrified of what that can mean I believe we have a hence dream theory you know in a lot of ways and I think again rewinding back to that era I think dream theory lot of evidence to support it I think I do think it was probably intended at the time but now we're in this world where we have to retroactively explain it because the series pivoted its direction answer one that was given in the game either intentionally or not in night Four's mini game we see that someone presumably Michael though it's never stated has locked crying child in a room filled with robot Parts this alone could cause a child trauma surrounded by disconnected limbs staring eyes and torn wires however special attention should be given to the fredbear suit its head is gone and something is sticking out of its neck while those could very well be eight bit wires I don't think so we don't see any wires connecting the head to the body when purple guy puts the suit on the guy in the background instead to me these spr resemble brunette human hair too blurry to tell for sure but that brings up a question is the crying child locked in a regular parts and service room or inside fredbear's secret backro even if this night isn't in a back room we know that CC has a tendency to get locked places most likely by Michael though we can't rule out that it's by William himself members of the Aton family would most likely know where the back rooms were and the back rooms were where the employees were told to go in order to bleed out and die if the crying child was locked in there only to witness someone enter in a suit start switching and bleeding out and then die in front of him yeah that would sure traumatize the kid but perhaps in a way he couldn't explain to others after all you're what 4 to 8 years old how do you first of all put together what happened in front of you and then verbalize such a thing no under he sobbing all the time we also know from FNAF 3 that the spring lock suits were decommissioned following multiple simultaneous failures after learning an unfortunate incident of the sister location invol multiple and simultaneous spring failures we do not see them in action I do I do remember that thank you I I'm so glad that someone didn't feel the need to play the entire thing to prove it for theth time light of 83 save for the obvious MCI but even then the phone guy refers to it as a yellow suit from the back rooms at that point meaning it's not in casual usage in the third game he names it as spring Bonnie but says specifically that it's not meant to be used implying that the fnaf3 phone calls happen during or immediately following the bite the crying child's death is only one spring lock failure not multiple simultaneous yeah I yeah I mean the crying child's death is only one spring lock failure not multiple SIM yeah agreed and even then is it a failure like I think that's the other question that I've always had around it like can you consider the death of failure because the animatronic is literally it's opening and closing its mouth right like it's it could just be literally a bite um you know it it it doesn't necessarily have to be a spring lock failure in that moment if it's the last time they're used what happened before perhaps if in a week or two prior to the bite someone got spring locked and bled out it's not exactly simultaneous but it's close enough that they might have counted it as similar incidents multiple simultaneous to me I I think there's two ways to interpret it right I think one is the the correct way for reasons I'll explain so one is hey multiple suits failed at the same time or roughly the same time right crying child got bit and someone got snapped into one right multiple simultaneous incidents that happened or the alternative and I think this is the one that's intended is multiple spring locks inside the suit all fail at the same time causing someone to die and get trapped inside right and I think that's what intended here because for something to be simultaneous they would all have to happen at the same time and well you can have incidents happen at multiple like in close succession simultaneous means like they're happening right at the same time or pretty much exactly which to me is someone trapped inside multiple spring locks inside the suit cuz they're it is not a it is a spring lock suit but the spring lock suit is made up of multiple spring locks inside they all to snap all around your body multiple simultaneous spring locks fail and then you die inside right so I think that's the way it's always been intended to be which means that you only really need one failure to have happened which seems to also imply that that was maybe afton's death or afon getting trapped inside multiple instances in a short period of time would or not not AF trapped inside because that happens later because they're decommission by that point but someone else potentially dying inside hting enough to shut down the suits entirely speaking of of 83 we should probably get to that still terrified of the animatronics and potentially having nightmares of them coming to kill him we'll get to that CCE now hates going to Fred bears and seeing the robots preferring to cry under the table rather than face them this is unfortunate for him as it's a family business and he's there a lot in the oh I guess I should talk about the the the the thing about the hair and the and the back room yeah that's another one where again it's like are we led to believe like that's a bit of a logical leap there um um because again the person who would be dying inside of that spring lock right is not an adult and so the so the the what they're saying is like hey there's hair coming out of the top of that body maybe the crying child is seeing someone dying in the safe room and I think that that's an interesting interpretation I struggle to say that that's what it is here though because the person who is in that if that is indeed a person in that suit and that's that their hair is popping out of the top of that suit that is a person who is clearly not an adult that is not someone who would have been hired to wear that suit right because their head is not big enough to be popping out of the suit for where you know the the mascot head would fit right it it and and in addition right you would assume that you would see like blood or some sort of splatter in there that's artistic license it could be up to interpretation whatever it feels like it has to be a kid because anytime a a child being stuffed into a suit is described in the books and this is just supporting evidence but it's one of those things where anytime it's described you that is when they have their heads kind of hair peeking out of the top or their head is much smaller in the body and they're kind of crammed in there and the the hair is kind of buried in the body as opposed to you know popping out the top that's the problem I think with that one if that is an employee who's locked in you would presumably see them actually fitting the suit properly right with a head peeking out I think it's an interesting interpretation I would challenge that conclusion but again I think you can just leave it if if this is your theory I think you can just leave it as like yeah his brother keeps traumatizing him by sticking him in the parts and services room where there are creepy skulls and stuff and so that's why he's scared of the robots the empty endoskeletons these skeletons as opposed to the just the characters themselves week leading up to his birthday party said at fredbears he's barely able to function shown in at least one in acent collapsing on the ground and having a breakdown when faced with an animatronic suit it should also be noted that during this time neither CeCe nor any of the other children appear to be going to school this could C's birthday on the bite at some time in the summer or during an Autumn or spring break as we'll discuss later the missing child incident or at least the end of it is stated to happened on June 26 although the year is unspecified this is something we should keep in mind when we get there Michael as a tween age older brother going through his angsty phase is not at all sympathetic to his brother's plights instead he prefers to aggressively bully him mainly via jump scares while wearing a foxy mask and presumably locking him into room so he doesn't have to deal with him we also know that at one point he literally goes home without the crying child leaving him at the place he hates the most this is one of those things that is supported in the books as well where there are multiple stories in I believe it's Fazbear frights that tell the story of a brother being annoyed by his crying BR by his crying brother like like an older brother that is charged with taking care of a younger brother and is annoyed by the younger brother being like just a drag on life and so leaves him behind in multiple cases or tries to do things to prank him to scare him uh I believe it's the one with foxy on the cover I forget the name of it um but it's Fazbear frights that's about Foxy and yeah that and then the brother under goes this like horrific death at the end uh but you know so karma karma comes back and pays him off but it's one of those things that it does seem to support this idea of yeah the the brother just kind of keeps locking in places CC doesn't seem very popular out side of his family either while we see a few kids neutral towards him asking him to play or simply talking to him others are antagonistic immediately it's at this point I want to talk about Williams actions quick trigger warning for discussion of child abuse for the next 2 minutes but right now we've got William supposedly communicating through the fredbear plush rather than actually you know parenting his kids while I can't speak on whether this was intentional at this point in the timeline William is at least through an action encouraging and fighting among his sons he doesn't seem to punish Michael for abandoning his brother locking him in rooms and scaring him to tears words aren't even comforting it's just oh your brother's coming did your brother do something again get jump scared to build's character the reason I bring this up is that now we're going to talk about common abuse tactics funer has multiple victims it's a very common tactic to turn them against each other because simply if the victims are fighting against each other they don't have the time or energy to fight the actual problem which is of course the abuser themselves this can be seen in either forcing the victims to compete for affection and good treatment convincing each party that the others are the enemy All That Jazz and once again it may not be intentional not every abuser goes around saying I think today I'm going to guess like my wife but when an abuser has control and they want to keep it they will do whatever it takes whether or not William was an abusive father prior to the bite of 83 is unknown but it is something we should consider I mean I I think the answer is yeah you know I like whether or not intentional or or the level of severity of it is part of it but like one thing that is very clear in the books and I you know we're using the books as supporting evidence but I think it's it's very clear in the way that this story is told and I think it's very clear that the books have really reinforced is that both William and Henry are actually pretty terrible to um they both prioritize their work they both are pretty unfeeling and and fairly robotic uh SL business oriented people in the first place they tend to push their family to the outskirts because they are creative Geniuses who only care about the one thing that they're fixated on right uh Henry abandons his kid so that way he can really focus on his work like the the tales from the not Tales from the pizza the silver eyes really reinforces that where Charlotte is constantly thinking about this idealized version of her father but comes to realize over the course of the three novels that he was he was kind of just neglectful of her that she was left alone and he was in his Workshop all the time and yes he loved her uh from but he loved her from a distance he loved her intellectually but maybe not physically in a lot of ways um William same thing where it seems like he was this kind of neglectful father or you know was using a bunker to parent his kids you know parenting his kids from a bunker or through the lens of this plushy right so even even before the murders regardless it seems like he was just like an both of them were kind of absentee parents leaving the kids to kind of fend for themselves presuming he is the driver and midnight motorist we know he later falls into abusive tactics implying physical abuse at the very least verbal he does nothing to comfort CCE and does nothing to solve the root of the issue which is Michael's Behavior which could also easily be read as a cry for help many amused children not understanding why they feel the way they do take out their anger and frustration on others because they can't or won't do so to their abusers Michael's actions could be a dumb teenager phase or mirroring actions that have been done to him it should also be noted that if William was abusive prior to the bite of 83 this does not exclude him from loving his children or at least thinking he does as hard as it is to understand many abusers do believe that they love their victims believe they do not or cannot process the fact that their actions are causing their victim's pain and that their Love Is A desperate desire for control that see their victims as possessions rather than people well it's it's I mean it's the it's a sociopathic it's it's a bit narcissistic too like which I think again these characters are pretty there's a lot of evidence to suggest that you could kind of diagnose them as as one or both of those uh sociopathic or narcissistic where William Aton and and serial killers in general right like anyone who does end up taking human lives and and thinking about how much of a genius they are how smart they are you know they are creators are the ones who built these animatronics up from nothing like look at the success of this business that I've built there is a egotism and narcissism to both William and Henry you know I think Henry skates by a little bit because he is not the one who went off and killed a bunch of kids like you know so he's a very different level of guilty in a lot of this but you know there is this this hubris that comes with creating life out of nothing and creating these animatronics and creating this successful business uh that you see present throughout everything and with William's major control freak issues this would be an easy trap for him to fall into even without trying and Trigger warning whatever the reason Michael's bullying escalates until cce's actual birthday party with several of his other friends all in Freddy's themed masks the tween surround the crying Boy Inside to prank him by pushing him to give fredbear a kiss cc is screaming and begging for them not to but we see them cross the entire restaurant carrying him over to the stage and then shoving him in the mouth and then the mouth bites down classic right like that I I don't if that's a spring lock failure right like I think the you see the animatronic just kind of like going up and down a bunch that's just it you know you put a guy in his mouth right we see the bully stop staring in shock and horror and the crying child stops moving this is the infamous bite of 83 the date known due to an advertisement for Freddy and friends on CC's television and the code to see the FNAF for cameras in Sister location and it is what kills the crying child but not immediately we know from the final cut scene that CC does not die right away he slips into a coma where we hear Michael tearfully apologizing just out of his field of vision while fredbear William promises to put him back together before we hear a flatline so at some point CeCe was in a coma at a hospital hence the Flatline man do you remember when everyone was going crazy over the fact that it was like all these yellow colors and that there's a slightly different yellow for the final line of I will put you back together and we thought it was the puppet at one point we thought it was golden Freddy at one point we thought it was the spirit like we went through everything think thinking like what could that possibly be um you know and it turns out that that change in yellow may have been a clue may not have been a clue but it was like I I think at this point we all know like oh was William I think we all generally agree it was William saying I will put you back together and that he was the voice of psychic friend fredbear the entire time which is weird but that little change in color it's like was that an intentional clue was that just a mistake that Scott made and he wanted to recolor the lines at the end unclear um but it's funny to look back on some of these clues that again felt so important back in the day like oh the shade of yellow is slightly different for this final line what could it possibly mean and be like well it was probably blame the whole time you know he said basically all those lines and we generally agree on that you know mustard man in Midnight motorist he's mustard what does that mean well maybe it's a reference to William Aton being yellow in that final line and mustard is it's not purple yellow you know maybe there's some not maybe there's some connective tissue through all that this can also be seen in Easter eggs during the f for gameplay on occasion the bedside table will have a pill bottle flowers or just be replaced with an ID drip implying that the gameplay is the nightmares that the child is having in his coma before he succumbs to his wounds possible there are other interpretations we will get to later the real question is how long did this take and more importantly what happened between the bite and the death okay well the missing children incident 23 minutes in yeah Ash so so we are 23 minutes into this video yes we are about an hour and 14ish into the recording wow okay and I have not gotten to Major point1 which happens at the 40 minute Mark yes oh no yeah so part of me is like well option one yes we can go through a little bit more or we can hop to Major plot point one and you can get a taste of what's to come then we go back in another part see the buildup and then keep going is the buildup ex like do I need to see the build is the buildup important I think the buildup has some really big uh like logical points to get to where we are okay but I also kind of want to see the shock on your face when you go to the top of this chapter the top really the top of this chapter okay yeah there's a lot of things that without seeing what comes before it's like oh wow okay really okay yes everything is the log book telling us that Cassidy is communica with the one thaty and that's where we get get important so important that she's the one stopping gold important that she gets to haunt alongside Cece and communicate with him in the log book and that's where we get to the big question the one that Cory asked me the night I did my own readr of the security log book one that changed everything oh the one that changed everything this is the log book telling us that Cassidy is communicating with the crying child or that Cassidy is the crying Prime child [Laughter] ohash I've been C the entire goddamn time all right time to get mauled by the entire Fane awesome low is yours oh man thank you stick with us this is groundbreaking oh man yes please the Cassidy we just discussed for minutes show on screen is not canon I think a lot of us have forgotten this but all of the above is speculation Cassidy is faded Text Okay C is golden Freddy C is eventful Spirit Okay C is okay she may be the spirit talking to crying child she may be a parallel to Andrew she may be the golden Freddy kid she may be the vengeful Spirit none of that is ever spelled out in Canon to be fair very little is for instance we don't actually have textual confirmation that the crying child is an Apon we just have to assume from his connections to Mich connection to the FNAF house and the security breach family of Staff Bots staff Bots but the thing with Cassidy this little girl is not the vengeful Spirit whoa that's huge okay she is not fredbear's possessor she's not even one of the missing children keep going keep going keep going the vengeful Spirit as will be discussed later is someone else and fredbear's possessor and the last missing child is the crying child Cassidy Afton and you might be wondering in but he didn't go missing he he died we'll get we'll get there let's look again at that log book code yes the hints on each page are from fed's writing of my name this L us all to believe that the name in the word search was well fed's name but faded didn't make that code alter did oh my God okay we're getting to that point where I have to like there you go think through oh man okay okay faded see welcome to the wonderful world where it's like seab bear is different than seiz which is different than you know sea child man there's so many Insider lingos for this stuff and it's like oh faded is the one thing but altered is the other thing and the the mic is the other oh my gosh oh boy oh yeah so Cassidy mhm is the crying child h I need to think through this I might need time to process I'm Cur I'm curious where they're going like and again I am open to all interpretations I'm not opposed to that at all that would imply that there's a fifth kid no they're saying that the fifth kid is okay I'm curious all right we we'll see yeah we'll see it was important to me that you saw this in a part one yes I agree this is very crucial I didn't want to break your flow cuz I think you were following the the general path of what they their assumptions were yes um part two kind of builds up the assumptions and establishes fan base assumptions which they then break down in this portion okay major Point number one Cassidy is crying okay I'm going to and is an afon and is an afon it's interesting I I am I am intrigued by where they're going with this and I am excited to see what happens next we'll continue what will undoubtedly be our nine-part Saga I was gonna say it's probably a four a four parter at this point I'm looking at it I'm like we should I don't want to be a four parter but I think it's probably going to be a four parter and it might Merit it okay I'm excited I'm excited about this uh I'm going to rethink my assumptions or I'm going to re maybe not my assumptions but my the evidence that I know one thing I do know that immediately comes to mind right is we know Cassidy bad news about the FNAF movie so this is from Scott right Adam dude bad news about it he sets up all the things that didn't work as a screenplay and there was the Cassidy screenplay diving deep this this is this is one of the few things this this was I believe if I remember right this is the moment that Cassidy was confirmed as a name of a character in the franchise like up to this point we had been like we found Cassidy it's in the survival log book it is a thing that exists this is clearly a character but it never actually been mentioned or confirmed 100% And I believe if I recall correctly Scott's post about the FNAF movie going forward and him being like here's all the failed scripts that I went through here's all the failed ideas him mentioning Cassidy as a screenplay diving deep the screenplay packed in a lot of lore following the story of Cassidy spanning multiple time periods following multiple characters and featuring lore from multiple games this was pretty saturated saturated to a fault may have been satisfying for the most hardcore fans but over left the majority of people confused and lost hey mate this this was the most accurate screenplay ultimately more of a visual encyclopedia than a movie it doesn't I guess say any I I was Wonder going back into this I'm like I wonder if this says anything about spaning multiple time periods which if city is crying child that would do following multiple characters if this is crying child it would make sense featuring lore from multiple games again it would make sense this is pretty saturated saturated to a fault so yeah there is a world what would it I guess it would span multiple games interesting I'm curious to see what they have in store but I guess for that we have to wait till next time so dual process theory is getting a multiple process GT live reaction there you go but overall cross the board very excited by what they've said so far I like the the style of this video I like the progression of comments that they're going on I think the logical flow makes a lot of sense um so it is it is giving this video is giving me gifts it is giving me life right now and I'm excited for it to continue giving all of those things in the next upload so until then my friends remember that wasn't a live stream but it was a video a video for you thanks for watching whoa that's not CA I know it's not CIA but I wanted to say thanks for watching I also wanted to say uh Lumen still available also if you have any other FNAF theories or other stuff that you want us to react to on the channel let us know in the comments or over on the game the subreddit always an opportunity there and now I can say see you nice [Music]
