the fact that it ends with the horrifying reality that the trio are stuck in this actual nightmare and they are blissfully unaware of the horrify nature of their world as the chances of us getting answers to the secrets of this show gets ripped away from us as the camera zooms to show an endless room that is never escapable then it just goes and plays that goofy ass song as the credits roll now that is how you end the first season of a series

That room with the Woman in the Attic was clearly another test the Trio needed to pass, but Yellow Guy failed because he was alone in that scene. He needs both Duck and Red Guy to move forward and finally figure out what's really going on.
She gave yellow guy the one way to escape, but the duck replaced his batteries with the old ones, making him dumb. So Leslie is basically giving him the way to escape but he shreds it.
I was thinking along the lines that yellow guy was in the first room which was supposed to represent ‘gifted’ courses & often misunderstood pedagogical styles that ensue (the same material but more of it) so then he climbed up & got to a room of people using the scientific method presumably using STEM/STEAM (though that might be a stretch) which was equally as tied to the human experience & pitfalls of the education system so he continued up & got to religion which was overt with the church windows & piano also condescending vague tone, slightly malicious intent & using prophesy/predeterminism as a shield because yellow guy was confused he mistook the room as mentally stimulating and this showcases no one is above falling into religion/cult especially when yellow guy was looking for something that stimulated him beyond material reality. The next stairway he didnt go to because he presumably couldn’t go up it as it didnt exist in the room while he was there (it opened when he left). Maybe he was supposed to come back?
When Yellow guy came back, his friends took his ENERGY to power the house for their entertainment, out of pure selfish reason. And Yellow guy simply agrees on that while he shreds the book. HERE IS THE THING: IF Yellow guy would LEAVE, he would read the book and then he would have power. But he is instead drained by his friends. In order to keep up this symbiotic friendship he chooses joy over power. ( If you say there is no way out then look closely at 20:49 ) In the very last scene you can clearly see how everyone just lets go of everything in life and just lives day by day without even the slightest attempt of thought. Right in the scene before Yellow guy questioned reality itself and all existence. But as Yellow guy shreds his will to learn ... they go back to normal again. They just wait until they're dead and have fun at it. But the book ... Yes ... I wonder what's inside there. Sadly I as well will never know as I shred it in hysteric laughter. In my beloved shredder. Shreeeeeedeeeeeraaah *sing*
One last thing: The teachers are far more sentient. In the old show they just show up and get angry, but the teachers in this episode seem to be capable of not needing to teach, mainly the Insurance safe.
I do think it was a part of their comedy that they were just there like there was no reason they just kept showing up cause they were all annoying. And while I love the way they do things now I think it would be funny if they made some random teachers.
20:49 Even the creators chamber has stairs which lead up further. Great show. Against all reason, in the attic, there suddenly are stairs which defy reality as we know it.
@layla.williams__ I think it would be a fourth wall break of a different sort. Leslie is responsible for the things that happen in universe and is the in universe explanation. However, Yellow briefly pierces the veil and sees puppeteers, much like Red in webisode 4. Yellow, given a somewhat satisfying answer of Leslie being the orchestrator of events, ignores this information and takes her presence at face value. What that staircase would have led to is beyond the IN UNIVERSE creator, the ACTUAL Creators of the show.
I love how when yellow guy goes ‘wrong’ red guy is comforting duck, like he did for yellow guy when duck died. I love it when we see that they care for each other. ❤
THEORY TIME! i think each layer of the house above the main floor is a trap designed for each of the characters specifically. the second floor is a trap for the duck. during the entire show, the duck doesn’t appear have any motive other than recognition essentially. he wants to be praised and he wants to feel smart and important, but it doesn’t really matter HOW. that’s why he was so excited about being dead- everyone would be talking about him. which is why the second floor is designed for the “smart big boys”. the third floor is designed for the red guy. the red guys motive is control. sure, he wants to escape the house, but that’s only because the house eliminates all of his free will. he seemed perfectly happy as the boss in the jobs episode, having control over the work place. on the third floor, there are no teachers. nobody telling them what to do. they teach the lessons to themselves. they’re in control. the fourth floor is yellow guy’s trap. and we know the trap was successful, cuz he never made it to the fifth floor. (note the staircase at 20:56 that confirms there IS a fifth floor) i think yellow guy is the only character without a clear motive, simply because he’s too stupid to think freely. but the moment he gets his batteries replaced, all he wants to do is get answers. leslie lured him in with the promise of answers in the form of the book, but he never gets the answers he’s looking for. he just goes back downstairs and never even sees the fifth floor. maybe the book never had the answers. maybe it was just a red herring. a yellow herring.
That is true talent in bringing the character to life. I'd love to see the pedigree of some of the puppeteers in this and if they came from Henson studios or something.
The fact that this ending is so much more disturbing than anything else in the show, even without gore, just goes to show what fantastic writing this is. Bravo.
My interpretation: Yellow guy grew up and was too mature for the show. Sure, the show helped him grow, but now he has no need for it and needs to be entertained by other things. But without the child audience, the show fails. The ending reveals that the show's first priority is keeping the show running and second priority is the children's growth. As long as they produce thoughtless stimulating content that children will want to watch forever, then the show can stay on, and they win. Very sad, very powerful ending. And to really punch your gut, they play the goofy end music right after.
I think this is a kind of "endless journey" scenario. There's not supposed to be a destination or any answers, just a Kafkaesque sense of recursive wrongness. The characters are trapped in a hell like a dream within a dream; they are always on the verge of finding out something profound about their situation but there isn't any cohesive logic underpinning any of it. It's a torture show and it's hilarious.
4:00 duck guy: What about my shreddeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer 10x my personal shreddeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer 10x What about my shreeeeeeeeeeeder 9x Elec-tracy: yes yes! and the shredder yep.
We were so close to having the lore of this world unraveled in this episode! Why did Duck have to take out Yellow Guy’s batteries and then allow the book to be shredded? 😖😫
Because it's funny. The difference between humor and horror is context. In essence, it's one and the same arguably. I think that's the true overall message of this series. What's scary and what's funny entirely depends on the context. In this case, It's not funny to us because of how it's presented, but to a child who misses the context, it'd be funny.
This episode feels like a literal psychedelic trip. You slowly break away from the normal things that you are concerned with day to day, feel like you start ascending to new levels of consciousness, speaking with gods/universal consciousness, and eventually return with the feeling of having gained previously unknown knowledge. Then you come back down, return to reality, and realize you're just a babbling moron like everyone else... and you discard that knowledge. But the feeling of having attained it never *quite* leaves you.
You don’t suppose the “Your not my real son” because yellow guy represents Leslies dead son, back in the death episode, the tombstone reads David while Yellow guys overall has a “D” on it In the family episode, duck has a picture of a woman and her child In the transport, the neighbor scene has yellow guy getting run over by a car and the Old man car has the license plate has Leslies name on it My theory is the Leslie is the true creator of the show and she makes yellow guy represent her son and maybe Roy can represent a abusive father or something
@@AnkaChannel8395 Remember the transport episode? Red guy could be a very close neighbor or friend that was important to yellow guy and duck guy is yellow guy's pet,or maybe I'm over thinking this
22:32 This ending reminds me of the last episode of Gumball where Rob was about to tell everyone what’s happening in Elmore, but they chose to ignore it and then the world started to fall apart.
@@kade-qt1zuthere is an episode of gumball that the Dhmis crew did work on but if they made that episode like a lore thing it would’ve been so much cooler
You realize at the end that as it zooms out not only have the characters lost sight of the stairs leading back up but we the audience cant see them anymore either. Yellow Guy's lost knowledge doesnt just affect his friends but it affects the viewer as well
I love how this show doesn't have the same lore as the web series, but yellow guy is still always getting screwed over. Electric chair, he has a cardboard guitar, and he's still mostly the more important character.
I don’t know why… but I’m madly in love with this show. I started today and I’m here almost on 13. I love it but freaked out aswell.. on the weekend I’m gonna just watch this until I can’t stop! Ice cream and all! I’m really filled with sympathy for these characters. I can’t stop talking about this show!
Why did the creators of this show end the series like this?!?! IT LEFT US ON A CLIFFHANGER! With an ending like this, we better get a season 2 with a lot more answers or at least a way of escaping😦
This is season 2, remember? And istg if it takes another 11 years to get season 3 I will hunt down Becky Sloan and whatever his name was lol and MAKE IT MYSELF
I love that they stay with the concept that was displayed from the beginning, no matter what happens, they always end up back home like nothing happened.
Oh! One of my teachers read to us a little bit of that story, hasnt gotten around to reading the rest of it yet though. Yes, I do see the similarities!
I think the 3 things on the wall in the final room are telling. The snack that only family's can have of course represent family, the shovel (and blood under it) show the death of her son (presumably by car), and the batteries in the yellow shape represent something that can be replaced, but eventually dies over time. I think this goes along with the Leslie's son's death theory. My thoughts at least
"Hang on, hang on, that's wildly misleading" hahaha omfg IDK why but hearing that from Yellow Guy had me laughing way harder than it should have ! I love this episode
11:33 bruh I just cannot get over the way that the duck says "big bois😎" with such confidence💀💀💀 Edit: I just finished the rest of the episode and that's honestly really sad I hate that the closer that they get to the truth it just brings them right back to where they started...
This was such a stunning finale! I don't think I've ever been this pleased about a finale in my life - whoever the team is behind this show, they are KILLING it!! Coz how tf am I more scared of some puppets than Hereditary lol
Arguable that Sketchbook was the most forgiving - she seems to be the only teacher to have any kind of development, with her swearing to “never get creative again” at the end of her song
4:00 can we talk about how unironically hard this goes? Like most of the songs in the show are intentionally bad unlike the RUclips videos but duck is just singing his heart out here
I think DHMIS is a virtual reality teaching experience for kids and Lesley is someone who trains the AI teachers. The virtual kids' avatars aren't allowed to ever leave the time loops (or the physical perimeter of the house) until they are old and mature enough. The creepy misbehaviors of the teachers are bugs that keep resurfacing because the corporate structure Lesley operates in doesn't give her enough time for proper quality control. The book yellow guy gets is the API documentation of the system all this is organized in. The symbols on the cover specify the various loops the characters can get trapped in.
This show is soooo frickin weird crazy and funny at the same time a masterpiece even though it only has one season and twelve episodes it is a blast to watch and be confused about
Something I noticed about this episode was when Red Guy perfectly explained their situation in this part 18:34 " They start the next episode back at home. "
22:47 this ending made me think that everything is a simulation that the woman created because we can see that the room where the three are is endless with no escape
This episode feels like it means so much and yet I can't parse any of it. When Yellow Guy gets his batteries changed he slowly starts getting smarter, and this is symbolically represented by him moving up the stairs. The big boys / bigger boy seem smart but clearly don't have the answers he's looking for. They just waste their time gaining useless knowledge and doing useless experiments that ultimately don't lead them any closer to the truth. It feels like this is representing the search for answers through study and research, which still leaves one without the answers to the biggest mysteries about the meaning of life or whatever. So the last room with Lesley is representing a religious angle to the question he's looking to answer; with the stained glass window, piano, the sense of everything being predetermined, and her having all the power and answers like some kind of higher being. She even gives him a book, like God giving humanity the Bible. But it's unclear to me what the ending means. Did the yellow guy really forget what the book was for, or did he decide he didn't actually want answers afterall? It would sort of seem to be the latter. Like, Red Guy at first says he likes being in the dark taking a break from the "garish colors", but then he decides he wants to go back. Also, assuming this takes place after episode 5 chronologically, he spent an entire episode trying to escape the house, only to be horrified of the reality of the real world, leading to him in this episode to be upset by the idea of anything changing and desperately trying to maintain the status quo. So maybe that's what's happening with Yellow Guy here? He found the answers, but is afraid of things changing so he shreds it instead? But he was going to show them before his batteries got taken out again- so is that symbolic of this being a stupid choice? And what is the meaning of the other staircase? That there's another higher truth above the one he found? What does that mean for Lesley? And WHAT ABOUT DUCK'S SHREDDER?!
i am also uncertain of the meaning, despite there definitely seeming to be one. i think you're onto something about yellow guy deciding to keep things the same, but i'm really not sure lol. many comments are interpreting it in different differing ways?
The other staircase is a mystery. It’s probably the real truth behind everything. Lesley controls the show, all the pieces she moves around makes things happen in their world. (Guess you can think about it like God if you’re religious.) it’s predetermined. He was going to show them what was in the book while he had new batteries, (probably tells them about everything including the other staircase) but after duck switched his batteries back to the old eroded ones he became his normal stupid self again, he didn’t have the “energy” ( it went to the house) to maintain the smart yellow guy and spread his knowledge to his friends. I seen another comment on here that makes sense, She says something like “you’re not my real son…just kidding” pretty much leading to saying that Lesley had a son named David, when duck was in the grave he said his name wasn’t David, yellow guy has a “D” on his trousers so connecting things and how DHMIS throws you for a loop, it’s possible. But yeah I wanna know more!
this isnt the first time that he learned about and forgot about the truth. he mentioned it when trying to think of the word "up" and he also mentioned it in the previous episode during the theme song
I knew that freaking shredder was going to be a problem... XD And oh my GOD, that ending!! I CAN'T WAIT FOR A SEASON 3!! I'm VERY much concerned by that Lesley woman. Is she that universe's god? I felt kind of soothed by her, but also terrified. Also, what happened with those dead teachers on the ground? I really felt bad for them, especially Tony and the Briefcase! The moment that Red Guy and Duck had in the dark kitchen made me tear up. I'm not sure if I ship them, but it was sweet~
Idk if this was what they intended with the batteries analogy but that is exactly how I felt after I was finally diagnosed with ADHD and Depersonalization-derealization Disorder and given the proper medication for it.
“No stop it! That’s not what you say! It’s you who’s gone wrong!” Dang that kinda hurts. It shows how some people change and others don’t like them anymore because they changed..
I feel like Lesley's "YOU'RE NOT NY REAL SON" statement really is a joke. It's a play on the actual show itself. We know Yellow guy is the son, that he has a father, she's playing on the mystery that old show created and making fun of it and it's story.
every second they get close to finding what’s really going on, they start back at square one, I feel bad for the kid
Agreed! It shows just how powerless they really are. I hope in the (true) finale, all three of them will see what's above the stairs of the Woman in the Attic.
@@Tygermite shes at the top of house, isn't she
I’m scared of Leslie
Yellow guy is 38 btw if your calling him a kid
He represents a kid
0:49 foreshadowing (and more proof that yellow has figured this out and forgotten more than once)
Oh my GOD, that’s exactly what that was Lol
It seems so painfully obvious that that’s what it is when you go back
Oh shnap! You're right!!!
He also has the bit in one of the intro songs where he talks about "things that I knew but I don't know now"

"No... Yeah"

I love how when yellow guy goes ‘wrong’ red guy is comforting duck, like he did for yellow guy when duck died. I love it when we see that they care for each other. ❤
I didn't see that as him "caring" for them. Red guy just has a tendency to avoid issues rather than confronting them and handling his emotions.
1:01
"What?"
"Huh?"
"That's not gonna fit, what's wrong with you??"
*"Huh?"*
I love them all sm 💀
Lol I thought one more "huh?" would have been the best

THEORY TIME!
i think each layer of the house above the main floor is a trap designed for each of the characters specifically.
the second floor is a trap for the duck. during the entire show, the duck doesn’t appear have any motive other than recognition essentially. he wants to be praised and he wants to feel smart and important, but it doesn’t really matter HOW. that’s why he was so excited about being dead- everyone would be talking about him. which is why the second floor is designed for the “smart big boys”.
the third floor is designed for the red guy. the red guys motive is control. sure, he wants to escape the house, but that’s only because the house eliminates all of his free will. he seemed perfectly happy as the boss in the jobs episode, having control over the work place. on the third floor, there are no teachers. nobody telling them what to do. they teach the lessons to themselves. they’re in control.
the fourth floor is yellow guy’s trap. and we know the trap was successful, cuz he never made it to the fifth floor. (note the staircase at 20:56 that confirms there IS a fifth floor) i think yellow guy is the only character without a clear motive, simply because he’s too stupid to think freely. but the moment he gets his batteries replaced, all he wants to do is get answers. leslie lured him in with the promise of answers in the form of the book, but he never gets the answers he’s looking for. he just goes back downstairs and never even sees the fifth floor. maybe the book never had the answers. maybe it was just a red herring. a yellow herring.
nah this so smart like she throwing him off from finding out n knew he was going to eventually destroy it
the fact that this show is already scary enough, adding real humans makes it so freaky
19:54, best scene, his little head shake is so cute 😭
FR
That is true talent in bringing the character to life. I'd love to see the pedigree of some of the puppeteers in this and if they came from Henson studios or something.
Duck was really SHREDDING the guitar.
... I'll let myself out.
Geet oout
yeah.. that- that would be most appreciated. thank you.
That’s some funny stuff
BEGONE FOWL PEASANT also funne
16:03 I love how big boi red guy is like “you’re not to touch me.”
He was so sassy and I love that😭
😭💀
I constantly use this line
The fact that this ending is so much more disturbing than anything else in the show, even without gore, just goes to show what fantastic writing this is. Bravo.
My interpretation: Yellow guy grew up and was too mature for the show. Sure, the show helped him grow, but now he has no need for it and needs to be entertained by other things. But without the child audience, the show fails. The ending reveals that the show's first priority is keeping the show running and second priority is the children's growth. As long as they produce thoughtless stimulating content that children will want to watch forever, then the show can stay on, and they win. Very sad, very powerful ending. And to really punch your gut, they play the goofy end music right after.
no
That's a great interpratation
3:54 The green duck must really love his shredder.
It's also kinda foreshadowing how the shredder will be important since it shreds the book
MY SHREEEEEDEEDDDDDEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRR-
Use your shredder
Kinda reminds me of the bowling ball in the pilot but less weird
What about my SSSSSHHHHHRRRREEDDDERRR
The fact that there’s another door in Lesley’s room implies that there is something or someone with greater power than her
It's us, the audience. We're the ones really in power.

I KNOW UGHHHHH
I like the small detail that they brought back Duck’s original autotune voice after he loves electricity
I screamed into my pillow at the finale scene. OMG….SO INFURIATINGLY GOOD. I’m low key mad. They are so lucky I love this series so much. 😂
I think this is a kind of "endless journey" scenario. There's not supposed to be a destination or any answers, just a Kafkaesque sense of recursive wrongness. The characters are trapped in a hell like a dream within a dream; they are always on the verge of finding out something profound about their situation but there isn't any cohesive logic underpinning any of it. It's a torture show and it's hilarious.
Well, they do live in an actual NIGHTMAAAAARE
@@michaeldebidart so i guess that Red guy's line is foreshadowing

We were so close to having the lore of this world unraveled in this episode! Why did Duck have to take out Yellow Guy’s batteries and then allow the book to be shredded? 😖😫
Because it's funny. The difference between humor and horror is context. In essence, it's one and the same arguably. I think that's the true overall message of this series. What's scary and what's funny entirely depends on the context. In this case, It's not funny to us because of how it's presented, but to a child who misses the context, it'd be funny.
It's for the sake of the electricity to be back on again
@@roetemeteor Damn it, I hate how complex and right that is Lol
Bcs that woman controlled it
I think it's because that means there will be more episodes😮
Duck and Red Guy's massive unjustifiable egos are comedy gold
This episode feels like a literal psychedelic trip. You slowly break away from the normal things that you are concerned with day to day, feel like you start ascending to new levels of consciousness, speaking with gods/universal consciousness, and eventually return with the feeling of having gained previously unknown knowledge.
Then you come back down, return to reality, and realize you're just a babbling moron like everyone else... and you discard that knowledge. But the feeling of having attained it never *quite* leaves you.

I thought this all seemed eerily familiar 😂
isnt that how they describe the insanity you feel after seeing an eldritch horror?
The guitar scene was awesome
You don’t suppose the “Your not my real son” because yellow guy represents Leslies dead son,
back in the death episode, the tombstone reads David while Yellow guys overall has a “D” on it
In the family episode, duck has a picture of a woman and her child
In the transport, the neighbor scene has yellow guy getting run over by a car and the Old man car has the license plate has Leslies name on it
My theory is the Leslie is the true creator of the show and she makes yellow guy represent her son and maybe Roy can represent a abusive father or something
Okay, but what about Red Guy and Duck? What or who they represent?
It’s really not that deep
@@AnkaChannel8395 Remember the transport episode? Red guy could be a very close neighbor or friend that was important to yellow guy and duck guy is yellow guy's pet,or maybe I'm over thinking this

@@GenLoss_Slimerred guy really wanted to be an uncle so maybe he could be David’s uncle
22:32 This ending reminds me of the last episode of Gumball where Rob was about to tell everyone what’s happening in Elmore, but they chose to ignore it and then the world started to fall apart.
We need a Gumball and DHMIS crossover, as in like an actual crossover.
@@kade-qt1zuthere is an episode of gumball that the Dhmis crew did work on but if they made that episode like a lore thing it would’ve been so much cooler
You realize at the end that as it zooms out not only have the characters lost sight of the stairs leading back up but we the audience cant see them anymore either. Yellow Guy's lost knowledge doesnt just affect his friends but it affects the viewer as well
“We’re big bois”
"BiG bOiS."
"Try'n keep up mate"
“No i think i get it”
I love how this show doesn't have the same lore as the web series, but yellow guy is still always getting screwed over. Electric chair, he has a cardboard guitar, and he's still mostly the more important character.
I can tell this ain't the end after the ending 👀
i personally believe ep 5 is the end
Nope
I feel like there’s gonna be 3 seasons or 6
@@Omar-tr4su nah 6 is too many at most 3
Lesley was on the license plate last episode
Lesley is yellow guy’s mom
I don’t know why… but I’m madly in love with this show. I started today and I’m here almost on 13. I love it but freaked out aswell.. on the weekend I’m gonna just watch this until I can’t stop! Ice cream and all! I’m really filled with sympathy for these characters. I can’t stop talking about this show!
i love how well this show represents derealization, disassociation, feeling trapped in an endless cycle feeling powerless
3:58 “WHAT ABOUT MY SHREDDER”🔥🔥🔥💯
Why did the creators of this show end the series like this?!?! IT LEFT US ON A CLIFFHANGER! With an ending like this, we better get a season 2 with a lot more answers or at least a way of escaping😦
This is season 2, remember? And istg if it takes another 11 years to get season 3 I will hunt down Becky Sloan and whatever his name was lol and MAKE IT MYSELF
But was shredding the book the way of escaping yeah it breaks the cycle
We’re on season 2
season 2 of the tv series they mean.
There will probably be a 3rd season, but we gotta be patient
I love that they stay with the concept that was displayed from the beginning, no matter what happens, they always end up back home like nothing happened.
Anyone remember flowers for Algernon? This reminded me of that story line :(
Oh! One of my teachers read to us a little bit of that story, hasnt gotten around to reading the rest of it yet though. Yes, I do see the similarities!
I was gonna comment this!! Good connection!
this kinda symbolizes kids growing up and learning actual facts rather than being misled by all cartoons
Idk about that one lol
I think the 3 things on the wall in the final room are telling. The snack that only family's can have of course represent family, the shovel (and blood under it) show the death of her son (presumably by car), and the batteries in the yellow shape represent something that can be replaced, but eventually dies over time.
I think this goes along with the Leslie's son's death theory. My thoughts at least
"Hang on, hang on, that's wildly misleading" hahaha omfg IDK why but hearing that from Yellow Guy had me laughing way harder than it should have ! I love this episode
11:33 bruh I just cannot get over the way that the duck says "big bois😎" with such confidence💀💀💀
Edit: I just finished the rest of the episode and that's honestly really sad I hate that the closer that they get to the truth it just brings them right back to where they started...
9:30 I noticed that there is a can of duck from the first season on the shelf
13:52 lmao I was paying attention to thr robot dog that I didn't even notice the dead cat 🤣
This was such a stunning finale! I don't think I've ever been this pleased about a finale in my life - whoever the team is behind this show, they are KILLING it!! Coz how tf am I more scared of some puppets than Hereditary lol
DMT is a hell of a drug. It's too bad you won't remember the "important thing" when you come back from the trip.
I also just realised that Duck is the only one in that drawer. There was a theory from the original series that Duck was created by the show machine.
It is without a doubt that she is the calmest,nicest,and forgiving teacher ever.
With choochoo in close second
Arguable that Sketchbook was the most forgiving - she seems to be the only teacher to have any kind of development, with her swearing to “never get creative again” at the end of her song
thank you for making these watchable on RUclips your the best now we finally saw what was in store for them this season
4:00 can we talk about how unironically hard this goes? Like most of the songs in the show are intentionally bad unlike the RUclips videos but duck is just singing his heart out here
The ending of this episode made me feel bad for yellow guy and the lady
Here's a take, the book is meaningless and is only a gift for his friends and him to enjoy in the only way they know how.
Leslie’s fit is fire
homeboy straight up just took her batteries
"You're not my real son!" So....is Roy an imitation of Lesley's son she made to cope with the loss?
I think you mean yellow guy, Roy is his dad
Unless u did mean Roy then lol
That's not Roy, Roy is Yellow Guys dad, this is just Yellow Guy
I think DHMIS is a virtual reality teaching experience for kids and Lesley is someone who trains the AI teachers. The virtual kids' avatars aren't allowed to ever leave the time loops (or the physical perimeter of the house) until they are old and mature enough. The creepy misbehaviors of the teachers are bugs that keep resurfacing because the corporate structure Lesley operates in doesn't give her enough time for proper quality control. The book yellow guy gets is the API documentation of the system all this is organized in. The symbols on the cover specify the various loops the characters can get trapped in.
This show is soooo frickin weird crazy and funny at the same time a masterpiece even though it only has one season and twelve episodes it is a blast to watch and be confused about
what about duck's personal home shredder?
I feel like they’re just in purgatory. Stuck and replaying the same things over and over because they’re in denial of the truth.
Matpat thought yellow guy with a banjo was part of his theory 💀💀
Something I noticed about this episode was when Red Guy perfectly explained their situation in this part 18:34
" They start the next episode back at home. "
22:47 this ending made me think that everything is a simulation that the woman created because we can see that the room where the three are is endless with no escape
7:49 Yellow guy once said, "Hm, maybe your blood sugar is low. Let me get you a snack."
21:16 awww this moment is just the best🥰
3:54 - my favorite part
"What about my shredder...?"
What about my shredder🎶🎶🎶🎶
"What about my shredder..... My personal shredder....."
duck: What about my shreddaaaaaa
That killed me 😂
19:07: I like how he's just like "ight I don't have all which one of you needs to take a shit?"
3:54 10 out of 10 best ship
3:58 the amazing song played by duck
This episode feels like it means so much and yet I can't parse any of it.
When Yellow Guy gets his batteries changed he slowly starts getting smarter, and this is symbolically represented by him moving up the stairs. The big boys / bigger boy seem smart but clearly don't have the answers he's looking for. They just waste their time gaining useless knowledge and doing useless experiments that ultimately don't lead them any closer to the truth. It feels like this is representing the search for answers through study and research, which still leaves one without the answers to the biggest mysteries about the meaning of life or whatever.
So the last room with Lesley is representing a religious angle to the question he's looking to answer; with the stained glass window, piano, the sense of everything being predetermined, and her having all the power and answers like some kind of higher being. She even gives him a book, like God giving humanity the Bible.
But it's unclear to me what the ending means. Did the yellow guy really forget what the book was for, or did he decide he didn't actually want answers afterall? It would sort of seem to be the latter. Like, Red Guy at first says he likes being in the dark taking a break from the "garish colors", but then he decides he wants to go back. Also, assuming this takes place after episode 5 chronologically, he spent an entire episode trying to escape the house, only to be horrified of the reality of the real world, leading to him in this episode to be upset by the idea of anything changing and desperately trying to maintain the status quo.
So maybe that's what's happening with Yellow Guy here? He found the answers, but is afraid of things changing so he shreds it instead? But he was going to show them before his batteries got taken out again- so is that symbolic of this being a stupid choice? And what is the meaning of the other staircase? That there's another higher truth above the one he found? What does that mean for Lesley? And WHAT ABOUT DUCK'S SHREDDER?!
i am also uncertain of the meaning, despite there definitely seeming to be one. i think you're onto something about yellow guy deciding to keep things the same, but i'm really not sure lol. many comments are interpreting it in different differing ways?
The other staircase is a mystery. It’s probably the real truth behind everything. Lesley controls the show, all the pieces she moves around makes things happen in their world. (Guess you can think about it like God if you’re religious.) it’s predetermined. He was going to show them what was in the book while he had new batteries, (probably tells them about everything including the other staircase) but after duck switched his batteries back to the old eroded ones he became his normal stupid self again, he didn’t have the “energy” ( it went to the house) to maintain the smart yellow guy and spread his knowledge to his friends. I seen another comment on here that makes sense, She says something like “you’re not my real son…just kidding” pretty much leading to saying that Lesley had a son named David, when duck was in the grave he said his name wasn’t David, yellow guy has a “D” on his trousers so connecting things and how DHMIS throws you for a loop, it’s possible. But yeah I wanna know more!
if the book is like the Bible, and yellow guy shredded it, then... 😳
this isnt the first time that he learned about and forgot about the truth. he mentioned it when trying to think of the word "up" and he also mentioned it in the previous episode during the theme song
Well, yellow guy is the son of a salesman/former tv producer. Makes sense he's smarter than what he looks like.
I really hope they do more of this show!
OMG DUCK CAN IN THE KITCHEN 9:30
Yeah. Has been present the entire series, including in FLY.
And he died on the 19th and it’s the 20th 🧐
This episode explains many things to me! And this episode also make me want to watch more even there are many scenes that have bloods😂
I knew that freaking shredder was going to be a problem... XD And oh my GOD, that ending!!
I CAN'T WAIT FOR A SEASON 3!!
I'm VERY much concerned by that Lesley woman. Is she that universe's god? I felt kind of soothed by her, but also terrified.
Also, what happened with those dead teachers on the ground? I really felt bad for them, especially Tony and the Briefcase!
The moment that Red Guy and Duck had in the dark kitchen made me tear up. I'm not sure if I ship them, but it was sweet~
It's so cute when yellow bonks his no es on the plate and just says a little ow and Red guy just laughs at them it's so cute 1:30
20:57 He was so focused on Leslie he didn’t even notice that there were more stairs leading higher then Leslie
Imagine it ending with “what’s your favourite idea” with a exact replica of the original episode 1 set and and used the old puppets
Yellow guy becomes woke
he became wakey wakey
8:25 Man, why can't Yellow Guy Rat-Eyes be our Don't Hug me I'm Scared teacher?
“What about this chair?” “Let’s turn it until an electict chair!”
the mind electric reference
Not me spelling every damn word wrong 😭
"What about this going chair?"
"That could be an electric chair!"
"GYUUUAAHH"
Now THIS is art… horrifying art…
I will never stop wondering what was beyond the door… or the book
Idk if this was what they intended with the batteries analogy but that is exactly how I felt after I was finally diagnosed with ADHD and Depersonalization-derealization Disorder and given the proper medication for it.
Yerppp, the batteries seemed to give off med vibes to me too
“We can still see you “ no you can’t” I literally started to laugh In front of my brother
A little detail I noticed, did anyone else see in 6:58 that the crossword puzzle spells 'Roy' down from bird ???🤔
ROY
The puzzle also spells aspic which they mention in episode 5 (season 1)
and gravel which is what they feed the love king, aswell as up which in this episode he was going up the stairs
“No stop it! That’s not what you say! It’s you who’s gone wrong!”
Dang that kinda hurts.
It shows how some people change and others don’t like them anymore because they changed..
What's the good part?
The Meat Guy thing is dead but he looks like he's concious 🤣
the best part is when duck is singing about his PERSENAL HOME SHEDER~~~~
I do hope that they continue this series, it would be a shame for this ending to be it. It is quite horrifying.
... Or you could be the guy who's stuck in a kids show!
Or you could be the guy who lives in an actual nightmare!
That rock was slappin'. Probably the best song. Can't keep it out of my head
I swear I was watching this episode and my power went out
Oh huh at 0:58 he refrences whats going to happen
I feel like Lesley's "YOU'RE NOT NY REAL SON" statement really is a joke. It's a play on the actual show itself. We know Yellow guy is the son, that he has a father, she's playing on the mystery that old show created and making fun of it and it's story.
maybe because lesley is the mom of david, and yellow guy was an attempt at remaking david
