Yes! Now we just need Jim to follow his own advice and do the same thing and share what he knows too... But I wish need everyone to put some respect on Jim's name and start talking about the voice on the radio 😅
@@ashleywalker-koonce3923 Kudos to MGM+ for bringing us From, but I feel if it were on larger network it definitely would’ve been nominated for awards. I think more people are tuning in every year, so maybe we’ll see some nominations this year.
I thought they were gonna find something that belonged to the Asian ghost that Elgin keeps seeing. Then I thought the Polaroids would print out ghosts, clues anything showing in the background🥴 but none of that happened.
DAMMMNNNN DALE!!! ...... he hit a dead end on his travels...2 best moments in this episode Henry "i see a sign for a Motel and a pool but where is the Motel??" Yes Henry finally someone asked the question!!!! Scott McCord(Victor) should be at least nominated for an award for his performance in this show the scene where Henry and Victor meet was the best scene in the entire series....mainly down to Scott's performance. Brilliant
I wanted to like the father and son reunion scene, but it felt too syrupy and anticlimactic. Now that they best buds again, let's see them put their brains together and figure some stuff out.
Good Job Dana...why did now one listen to part about Victor knew the tree goes to a Lighthouse and ask him if bottled should be left alone or you need something with address to where you go want to go!!!
@itowilltube This episode was amazing, and I agree. I think Dale was not taken to the lighthouse because he did not have what was needed to get there, and he was punished for it.
Thank you so much @joneskat4! I'm so glad you found this channel too!! We still have so much more left to discuss this season so you found us at the RIGHT TIME! Are you able to join us for the live deep dive tomorrow at 5pm eastern? ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI?si=EDOo4f-Zr7Yf3s5i
I think it’s crazy that they don’t listen to Ethan. He’s the one who’s spend the literal longest time with Victor and therefore knows more than most people.
I love Jim trying to lecture Tabitha about leaving their kids. AUDACITY MUST HAVE BEEN ON CLEARANCE because he was helping himself to double portions 😂😂😂😂
In the town meeting and Tabitha did her recap from the finale last season to episode 4. They were not interested😭😭😂🤣🤣 I laughed so loud and lost it. Lol
Loving it!!! Randall alive and blaming Boyd for leaving him with the monsters Victor & Henry Reunion...I said I wasn't gonna cry. Jade and Tabitha sharing notes ***Dale goes through faraway tree, after being warned against it...OMG!!! 😱😳🥺Twilight Zone Moment!!
I really hate that she feels like she came back without answers but I don’t understand why her character don’t give up information. Why she didn’t say anything about victors mom and how she did the drugs and started talking about the kids and the town.! I feel like that would have been important information for everyone to kno. Everytime she comes on the screen I’m yelling at her 😂😂😂😂😂
I agree. A lot of them don't share information and it's annoying. The towns people are a bunch of selfish assholes 😂 she doesn't owe them shit! What exactly did they expect? Nobody would believe her story, just like none of them believed it when they ended up there! U see how people react when they're told they're now stuck there and can't leave and that they need to get inside before the monsters come out at night. Also, let's say someone did believe Tabitha. How could anyone help?? Nobody knows where tf the town is! Even if they believed her and they knew where the town is, they STILL couldn't help! If u go into town you're stuck there! So how tf can anyone help them?? Those people were all ridiculous and Tabitha should have cursed them out.
I loved the interview! The lore question was pretty cool but I was really intrigued by how the actor actually gets the job done. The father son reunion was so intense, like I was able to see it in his eyes. It's almost like magic. Well done!
@@Themovieblog Oh because of the comicon thing? I think most of us understand the wifi was not great there and you're trying your best to get a strong signal and maintain the actor's schedule. I thought the questions you asked were on point. That's what I wanted to know from him at least. If you have another interview with him later, I would be interested to know a bit more about Victor. The actor that plays him is brilliant in real life but it's hard to understand if Victor is mentally challenged or just emotionally stunted/damaged. It would be awesome to understand how the writer/director teams up with the actor to create that person. From what I understand those types of roles are amongst the toughest to pull off in Hollywood.
I was telling someone on another channel that the trees don't always take you to the same places, Victor stated this on the first season. They swore up and down the bottle tree always takes you to the lighthouse. This episodes shows that's not true.
I was telling some folks during a live stream something similar when I said the trees have a temperament and take you wherever they WANT to take you. I look at them more like ENTs from LOTR than just trees 🧐
@TheMovieBlog I think you might missed what Julie said about Tabitha was return to give the town hope of getting out. But holding on to Hope makes the people juicy for monsters and forest feeds on their hope..but they suffer because they hope still allows you to be disappointed 😊
I caught it but your right in that I should have addressed it. I think Julie is being mentally tortured by the dark entity that possessed her last season. I think she's, by consequence, spreading hopelessness due to her own struggles. This isn't the first time we've heard something like this from the dark entity. The ghost of Abby and the ghost of Father Khatri have both tried to spread hopelessness by saying the forest feeds on fear... But I don't think the dark entity should be taken by its word 🧐
Maybe the hotel used to be the way home but somehow they have either forgotten or need to figure out how to get back there. There's SOMETHING significant about the hotel not being there
Exactly. Notice he didn't land in the depth of the pool. He landed where a motel room used to be. If the trees are moving, the addresses/coordinates are changing. I hope they find a picture of the hotel in the basement proving that it did exist.
I think the numbers in the bottles are coordinates and taking down a bunch messed up where the tree would send someone - sending Dale into the pool wall instead of the lighthouse. They deprogrammed the tree.
Cant be because episodes before boyd already took some bottles down when he traveled out in the woods with sara and was the first one to find the tree besides victor and his mother so that wouldn’t make sense
My top 2 favorite channels to watch after each episode of From. These 2 guys are like companions to the series! They're retelling, humor and keen observations are 🔥🔥🔥
If people had remained calm, they could have accomplished a lot at the meeting. Jade going to the Bottle Faraway tree didn't accomplish anything either. Both of them (Tabitha and Jade) barely moved an inch when Dale hopped into the tree. Made no effort to stop him.
@@blvcksabath2529 I know - he does suck. But I guess that's the definition of what true humanity is. It's easy to help someone who "deserves" it. Much harder to help someone who doesn't "deserve" it. And even for someone who "sucks", Dale did say that when he got back home, he would go find help for everyone else.
@@tsm784 I love meetings - doesn't matter the size of the meeting. I love sitting back and watching the politics and power dynamics at play. Who's kissing up to who. Who shoots downs other's ideas, but then agrees when a bigshot says the same thing thar was dismissed when someone lower on the corporate ladder said the same thing. I love studying human nature; and meetings (especially at work,) often provide me with a glimpse into the real world/thoughts/character of my coworkers and managers.
@@ashley.taylor174 She told Henry that BIW pushed her. She didn't really get to say exactly . Tabitha should have asked get help and tell them to go where?
Dale did what he said he was going to do. He said he was going home to get help. He went home (Fromland), and he got help (Boyd). They are all from Fromland.
13:23 maybe Sarah still has messages from voices. We never did find out whether or not the voices went away, as the writers never addressed that. Maybe she still has them.
Victor told Sara to wait for him outside the colony house before he was told about his dad being in Fromville by Donna. So Sara naturally followed him storming out from the colony house, nothing fishy there imo
Great damn episode. This whole season has been amazing. Many things coming together and everyone talking to each other. Jim DID look for Tabitha at the Bottle Tree! The numbers in the Bottles are NOT years. (Or probably not, anyway) Poor Randall! They must have stitched his face closer with no painkillers! WOW. That's brutal. I sure hope they doped him hard when they got him to the medical building/former school. Dale is a moron but shouldn't have have to die that hard. Boyd was going to put him out of his misery too... Damn near cried from the amazing performance of Victor and his dad meeting.
What I fear is the writers won't be able to tie the loose ends. Now there's too much mystery and they have not shown once the answers to any of it. It's always mystery in each epsiode. this series will probably be 10 seasons long, with a bad ending, GOT S8 happening all over again
The clothes in the basement of Colony House were from the mid 80's, not the 70's. They even joked about it. Sooooo....that means people were back in Fromville by the mid-80's. That means Victor was only alone for five years maximum. Ethan was left alone for a few minutes while Jim and Tabby went to the meeting. Ethan has to be big enough to sit alone in a house for fifteen minutes.
Depends when in the 1980s. If the clothes are from 1989, then he was there alone for12 years. Also, the date of the clothes being manufactured/made doesn't always equate with the year the clothes are being worn. Lots of people where old clothes. I dont know any who buys a completely new wardrobe every year, and dumps (or gives away) every piece of clothing from the previous year .
He told her to wait for him outside the colony house, so she was right behind him the entire way for sure. So no need to track footsteps even, they were they together from the start of the scene
thank you for posting even tho you're at comicon!! Hope you're having a great weekend. Idk if Dale and Donna are secret lovers but the two have actually been married irl for 30 years!! That might be why it seems like they're in love. Scott McCord does an unbelievable job bringing Victor to life and it was so rewarding to see Victor and Henry reunite this episode 🥹
Thank YOU and You're VERY welcome! This week's video took a LOT to have ready in time but it all worked out. I have some clips from comic con coming soon 😏
Also they alreaaadddyy think she's craaazzyy 😅 that's why she got handcuffed... tabby was trying to be careful not to really freak them out bc remember when anyone tells anyone about fromville??! They freak out, they don't believe it and it's never ok well do w.e you say sir or madam
Great videos, new sub for you! A couple things: Jim is useless!! Father of the year all the sudden, gimme a break! Put Ellis in the useless category as well, what's he really done besides make a demon baby 😂 i really like that people are communicating finally. Not the town meeting but Randall kinda telling Boyd about when the cicada monster had him, Julie tells Elgion her cicada dream, he tells her about Kimono Lady, Jade and Tabitha talking at the bottle tree. And i thought itbwas funny that Boyd said the monsters want the town to see Randall during the day all scarred up to remember they aren't ever safe, and now every time people walk past the pool they'll see Dale, reminding them there's more out there than the monsters trying to mess with them. Also, the basement in colony house had an archway that looked a lot like the one Miranda painted. Love the channel!
Thank you @nmason, I truly appreciate the sub 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Ellis is a lost young dad. I remember that feeling of aimlessness when I was a young dad and figuring it out as I went along. I also love that the folks are communicating and it's starting to FEEL like things will come to a head sooner rather than later. ALWAYS pay attention when we enter a basement in this show. There's always SOMETHING important that's going to occur when a character goes into a basement 😏
They did listen to Ethan a little, but Jade is also there for exposition and information and he was the explainer in chief this episode. Or at least the confirm-er in chief. He confirmed that the numbers are important and then he said dates written on the paper, probably. Unless he's wrong and that was a red herring. His last name is Herrera. He confirmed that he saw the tree roots. Some people were convinced they were not roots. Not me, but some. We won't have to hear that weirdness anymore.
10:56 in this episode, we learned that Julie is seeing or rather hearing screaming in her head, Randall might be seeing skulls because that certainly looks like that’s what he was carving… therefore is Marielle seeing?
I dont know about skulls but Randall is def still seeing the cicadas. I think there's something in the fact that Marielle is the only one of the 3 that doesn't seem to be suffering any long term effects from being stuck in the nightmare state. She is very sus to me now. Could she have struck a deal with whoever is controlling this place? Could that mysterious medicine that she gave Fatima in an earlier episode be linked with whatever poisoned the crops and that's why she is now able to eat rotten food (and blood)?
@@angelae5748 A perfectly valid question. My only response to that is that Marielle was certainly screaming like Julie and Randall when she was in the dream, so being high (if she was) definitely didn't stop that part of it.
What if it’s one big PTSD trip from Boyd being at war and none of this is even real, in the end they’re gonna medivac Boyd out of Afghan and he’ll wake up and they ask him where he’s from, I JOKE but this is legit the best series ever, starting to think reincarnation or Fae
My theory for the far away trees goes like this. A far away tree will get you anywhere within Fromville randomly, but if you hang specific numbers in bottles (just like coding) you will pick a specific place every time you use the far away tree, that’s why the bottle tree always got people to the lighthouse, but when Tabitha & Jade took some numbers off of the tree, Dale got sent of to somewhere else. Because they altered the outcome of the destination. Either that or the Entity will send you anywhere they want.
i knew you were one of the ones who got to see the first five episodes, which is why I asked you if you had seen this one and you answered cryptically and that made me wonder how you kept from spoilers during the group[ chat in Jeremy's room last nigh? That must be torture. Great interview with Scott McCord..
In previous episodes, everyone wanted to be mad at Jim for trying to solve things and ending up leaving his family. Now that he has switched to the other foot and is trying to keep his broken family together people are still mad at him for the exact opposite reason, honestly, none of you would be able to handle the dichotomy of the situation that Jim is in. He literally can’t win, but fathers are so often put into that unwinnable Catch-22
Sounds like the definition of "father" to me 🤣 But all jokes aside @TheMikeFloyd, the problem is Jim isn't balancing things out. He's either 100% trying to share information and solve the problem or 100% keeping information to himself and keeping his family together. I, personally, want to see more balance from Jim where he's trying to solve the mystery of how to get home but also doing this while making sure his family is safe. He may need help with communicating when/where he needs help too 🤷🏾♂️
Aww, thank you for that @Aim-marMr! I truly truly appreciate that. Is there any chance that you can catch the live stream tomorrow at 5PM Eastern? I'm going to go IN on this weeks episode with all of you here: ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI
eveeybody got his inner demon in that town! jim with the phone, elgin with the lady, julie with the voice, jade with the visions, its a suffering cycle!! it can just be a purgatory theres no other anwser
If it's purgatory, why are they bleeding? Not to debunk your theory, but a sincere question. You have to be dead to be in purgatory, but we've seen scenes of people bleeding (Tabby, Kristi, Boyd, erc.) So, are they in purgatory, if they're still alive?
9:17 regarding Dale, there were more cracks in the cement in the swimming pool… Could those be holes where other people appeared that tried to go through a far away tree selfishly? Maybe that’s the way they work. If you want to use them for a selfish reason, like Dale… You end up someplace bad, but if you go for an altruistic reason you end up where you’re supposed to be?
@@tmack2135 I think them bothering the bottles before going through the tree. i think the main reason Victor was able to take Tabitha was bc she had lunch box with address . They had open several bottles and then let Dale just walk in to tree no stopped him or mention the light house is where
Sarah didn't necessarily know where the car graveyard is. She followed Victor there. Also Julie didn't necessarily invade Fatima and Ellis privacy by taking some weed. Remember, it's colony house! They operate like a commune! Everything is for everyone. They share everything.
That might be true admit Sarah following Victor but I've got my eyes on her. We've never seen anyone just go to the car graveyard except Victor 😒 And as far as the weed being communal... Idk, that weed looked like it was being stashed away to me 🧐😅🤣
I think the numbers in the bottles are coordinates that Miranda finally figured out because the show tells us multiple times that some bottles have been removed since Tabitha has went thru the tree and when dale went thru they removed some more prior that’s why he landed in a random spot and not the light house
That's a dang good theory @diddytytyy3796! My only question would be annoy Miranda and if she was the kind of person to track coordinates. I have a feeling that Tabitha might still be recording dates, even if they don't seem like dates 🧐🤔
11:40 They live in colony house which means they share everything, so even if that wasn't her stuff she would still be welcome to it. However, how do we know that it wasn't hers? She shared that room with them. They set her up a make shift canopy bed when she was feeling home sick.
I got a interesting theory,victor says that he only draws what he sees/experienced, he never draws something in the past ,what if along with what he sees, he can see what other townsfolk dream/see and thus he draws them.
i think them taking down bottle 🍾 down and opening the slips which are prob years you can stamp yourself with i feel like bc Tabitha had Victor blessing and his Lunch box with an address so when BIW pushed her she had a location
Thank you SO VERY MUCH @AlishaOutridge I truly appreciate that support 🙏🏾 any chance that you can join in on the Livestream tomorrow at 5pm eastern? ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI
I still think monsters were unable to kill Boyd, probably got some sort of allergic reaction to his blood. He’s been touched by cicadas monsters and probably has blood like Martin/Boyd. This is the second time he survived without getting killed by night monsters
I'm absolutely going to address this during the livestream later today, any chance that you can join today at 5PM eastern? ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI
Watch Donna and Henry's scenes again, but play some Boyz II Men or D'Angelo in the background. Victor's definitely getting a new mum. I think she'll cope just fine with Dale winding up Fromville's version of Han Solo trapped in Carbonite because there was definitely a vibe happening.
Yes! Yes I caught that too! I'm going to go into it a bit during the next live stream. Is there any chance you can join and help corroborate this theory? It's tomorrow at 5pm eastern ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI?si=puL7MBnb4oB6tP5v
@Themovieblog definitely 😊 here's my thoughts in advance, just in case I forget anything/fall asleep (it'll be late evening here): I've got a Cabin in the Woods style theory, where Fromville is an evil game that's repeated every generation with new game pieces (humans), but representing the same specific roles, kinda like CITW's athlete, fool, scholar, etc. Victor is/was the equivalent of that movie's final girl, where it's inconsequential if he lives or dies, just so long as all the other roles meet their pre-ordained fate. That's why he was allowed to chill alone for years after the massacre. Where Donna and Henry are concerned (we need a cute Bennifer style name for them, lol), I think them becoming a couple might be a big deal in how things pan out. With the specific roles theory, I think part of that is there's always a nuclear family consisting of a psychic mum who feels compelled to save the kids in the tower, a logical dad who's a problem solver, and a child (age doesnt matter) who's inquisitive, innocent and pure. The presence of a second child in that family is irrelevant. The Matthews currently have that nuclear family gig, but they're not satisfying the roles these days. Jim's not the problem solver anymore. He's gone from 'let's build a radio tower' to 'I'm actually cool with being trapped here, as at least my marriage is working out'. Tabitha was the psychic mum compelled to save the kids, but she went off-script when she escaped. Any interest in saving the kids will be replaced with 'if you're having anghkooey problems, I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems, but the predicament of random, fictional, obvious manipulation-tactic kids ain't one'. She got out, so anything she does from here on out will be motivated by self-interest, not some weird, selfless quest to save avatar kids that have always been and always will be. Ethan is no longer inquisitive, innocent and pure, as he's gone from a precocious little moppet full of hope to a cynical, emo Buzz Killington. Not his fault, but his ability to generate huge amounts of hope and inspiration (which the evil puppet masters weaponise against the townsfolk) has definitely gone. So, in comes Henry, fresh from the real world, full of 40yrs of data gathering via his wife's clues in the basement, primed to solve some problems. He's New Jim. Victor is definitely traumatised, but he's never gone full emo like Ethan, as he's always on inquisitive little missions and he's retained his childlike innocence. He's just reunited with his dad, so his hope and inspiration tank has been completely refuelled. He's New Ethan. So, in order to become New Tabitha, Donna would likely start getting visits from the anghkooey kids and sudden motivation to go galloping through the woods in search of a lighthouse. Given the puppet masters like crushing dreams and generally harshing anything nice, this arrangement won't last long, though. I can see an attempt to mind-eff Donna via Dale, given he's permanently Han Solo'ed in that wall, so there's bound to be manipulative Ghost Dale shenanigans on the Horizon. I can also see an attempt to corrupt Victor, likely through Sarah, given she's already been a tool for evil. Not sure if you're familiar with the plot of The Stand, but there's a virginal, innocent, nice dude character called Harold who the Big Bad deliberately corrupts. There's a girl called Nadine who's already been mind-effed by the Big Bad, so she's tasked with introducing Harold to adult activities, therefore 'corrupting' him, which she does. She also gaslights him and warps his mind, so he winds up wiping out a big chunk of his community. I think that's what's planned for Victor, potentially turning him from New Ethan to New Christopher. Actually, it's all about 'who will be New Christopher' for me, as there seems to be quite a few contenders for the role of 'dude who used to be super nice and kept everyone's spirits up, who's now turning into The Unabomber'. It's a bit of a race to that role, as I think every game needs a board-clearing event, so Boyd instantly being completely fine with the concept of taking out Dale was an eyebrow-raiser for me. Like, putting everyone out of their misery wouldn't be too big a leap for him after that. He just needs the last bits of his humanity manipulated out of him.
Believe it or not guys, the bear trap thing was actually very realistic! We've just been conditioned by hollywood to believe they are much more powerful than in real life. They are designed to just hold the animal and injury usually happens when the animal tries chewing their own leg to get out. On a person it would definitely sink in deep, but not to the bone and permanent injury would be rare, especially since she didn't panic or thrash.
You might be right @Calinotch! But I feel like the Boy in White might be what led Tabitha to the real world and maybe the dark entity is just taking advantage of the opportunity.
Poor smart Dale 😂😂... but I thought that tree always lead to the lighthouse. Victor told Tabitha that it was "different" from other farway trees(according to Miranda) as it always led to the lighthouses. So what went wrong? Dale's been a jerk, didn't deserve it but someone actually needed to go through. Guess he was the disobedient sacrificial lamb( "I've been here longer than him"😂😂- Dale to Ellis)
I honestly think the trees have a personality all their own and MAYBE the bottle tree one was nice to Miranda and Tabitha but saw something in Dale that it didnt like

@@ashleywalker-koonce3923 Kudos to MGM+ for bringing us From, but I feel if it were on larger network it definitely would’ve been nominated for awards. I think more people are tuning in every year, so maybe we’ll see some nominations this year.
18:10 I was expecting Jasper to show up in the basement. Specifically in that chest that Elgin opened up.
Me too, I bet that Polaroid of Julie has something evil in it
I thought they were gonna find something that belonged to the Asian ghost that Elgin keeps seeing. Then I thought the Polaroids would print out ghosts, clues anything showing in the background🥴 but none of that happened.
One of the two cases, either the case with the camera in it, or the case with the clothes in it, is probably Jasper's carrying case
We saw Jasper in the cave…… or maybe in the lake camp😮 who’s knock knock knocking at my back door?!
me too
DAMMMNNNN DALE!!! ...... he hit a dead end on his travels...2 best moments in this episode Henry "i see a sign for a Motel and a pool but where is the Motel??" Yes Henry finally someone asked the question!!!! Scott McCord(Victor) should be at least nominated for an award for his performance in this show the scene where Henry and Victor meet was the best scene in the entire series....mainly down to Scott's performance.

That moment was EVERYTHING 🥹
@@michaellamont250 the motel has at least one resident who is currently in the pool area 😂😂😂

I wanted to like the father and son reunion scene, but it felt too syrupy and anticlimactic. Now that they best buds again, let's see them put their brains together and figure some stuff out.
“Fromland’s” town hall meeting reminds me of my company’s town hall meetings. Never invite everyone to share their opinions on anything. 😂😂😂
I know exactly what you mean @phillylady! I also think Jade was right, any meeting with more than 3 people can be a problem 😅
It reminds me of the public forums on the show Parks and Rec😂😂😂
This episode was crazy and this show just gets better and better. I feel like we got done good clues in this episode.
Not really. Just another filler episode. Hope nextweek is better
The pool scene was nuts I called it lol and thanks I friggen needed my tissues with the reunion. This was a good episode!❤❤❤
Good Job Dana...why did now one listen to part about Victor knew the tree goes to a Lighthouse and ask him if bottled should be left alone or you need something with address to where you go want to go!!!
@itowilltube This episode was amazing, and I agree. I think Dale was not taken to the lighthouse because he did not have what was needed to get there, and he was punished for it.
Yeah we did also lol. Said he's gonna end up in a wall for sure.

I love Jim trying to lecture Tabitha about leaving their kids. AUDACITY MUST HAVE BEEN ON CLEARANCE because he was helping himself to double portions 😂😂😂😂
My fav comment 😂❤
I'm seriously considering to pin this one
In the town meeting and Tabitha did her recap from the finale last season to episode 4. They were not interested😭😭😂🤣🤣 I laughed so loud and lost it. Lol
With Kenny Mom's funeral and the father and son reunion they are bringing raw emotion into the horror matrix and by God it's working.
I was hoping that when Elgin saw the picture he took of Julie that he would see an entity behind her or something controlling her.
I was hoping that pic was going to show that scary woman Elgin is seeing lol
Me too
we didn't see it develop did we. I had idea he was going see just him and
Exactly what I thought was going to happen. And I thought Elgin was going to find something that belonged to his ghost lady or any clue/s

Everytime she comes on the screen I’m yelling at her 😂😂😂😂😂
I agree. A lot of them don't share information and it's annoying. The towns people are a bunch of selfish assholes 😂 she doesn't owe them shit! What exactly did they expect? Nobody would believe her story, just like none of them believed it when they ended up there! U see how people react when they're told they're now stuck there and can't leave and that they need to get inside before the monsters come out at night. Also, let's say someone did believe Tabitha. How could anyone help?? Nobody knows where tf the town is! Even if they believed her and they knew where the town is, they STILL couldn't help! If u go into town you're stuck there! So how tf can anyone help them?? Those people were all ridiculous and Tabitha should have cursed them out.
Soooo do we leave Dale in the pool or dig him out and bury him? 🤣🤣🤣 They got Dale on that Teacup episode 1 type posing 🤣🤣🤣
I'm mad nobody put water in the pool. We could've been having pool kickbacks and stuff now we will never get a pool party!!
He's just a pool decoration now😂
Just put a curtain there and leave him as a reminder 😂 F around and find out
I said same thing that Teacup pose😂😂

You're on every reaction video...give it a break dude
@@nkosikwesi8477Which kinda means you're on every reaction video, too, if you recognize him/her.
I loved the interview! The lore question was pretty cool but I was really intrigued by how the actor actually gets the job done. The father son reunion was so intense, like I was able to see it in his eyes. It's almost like magic. Well done!
Thank you so much! I was so nervous that it might not be as well liked as the other interviews. Thank YOU, I truly appreciate the kind words 🙏🏾
@@Themovieblog Oh because of the comicon thing? I think most of us understand the wifi was not great there and you're trying your best to get a strong signal and maintain the actor's schedule.
I thought the questions you asked were on point. That's what I wanted to know from him at least.
If you have another interview with him later, I would be interested to know a bit more about Victor. The actor that plays him is brilliant in real life but it's hard to understand if Victor is mentally challenged or just emotionally stunted/damaged. It would be awesome to understand how the writer/director teams up with the actor to create that person. From what I understand those types of roles are amongst the toughest to pull off in Hollywood.
I was telling someone on another channel that the trees don't always take you to the same places, Victor stated this on the first season. They swore up and down the bottle tree always takes you to the lighthouse. This episodes shows that's not true.
I was telling some folks during a live stream something similar when I said the trees have a temperament and take you wherever they WANT to take you. I look at them more like ENTs from LOTR than just trees 🧐
@@Themovieblog yes and it seems like you don't go through a tree unless the boy in white tells you to do so.
Yes isn't that what Victor said, that your intentions matter when you go into the tree
@TheMovieBlog I think you might missed what Julie said about Tabitha was return to give the town hope of getting out. But holding on to Hope makes the people juicy for monsters and forest feeds on their hope..but they suffer because they hope still allows you to be disappointed 😊
I caught it but your right in that I should have addressed it. I think Julie is being mentally tortured by the dark entity that possessed her last season. I think she's, by consequence, spreading hopelessness due to her own struggles. This isn't the first time we've heard something like this from the dark entity. The ghost of Abby and the ghost of Father Khatri have both tried to spread hopelessness by saying the forest feeds on fear... But I don't think the dark entity should be taken by its word 🧐
Dale got sent back to the motel address, but since the motel doesn’t exist anymore, he ended up in the motel pool
😳😂🤣😩
@@Themovieblog The actors that play Dona and Dale are married in real life.
Maybe the hotel used to be the way home but somehow they have either forgotten or need to figure out how to get back there. There's SOMETHING significant about the hotel not being there
Exactly. Notice he didn't land in the depth of the pool. He landed where a motel room used to be. If the trees are moving, the addresses/coordinates are changing. I hope they find a picture of the hotel in the basement proving that it did exist.
Dale has had it coming FOR A WHILE.. now if only Jim had gone into the tree with him. 😂😂😂
Damn, Jim too!?! 😂🤣
26:15 Scott McCord !!!!😃❤
Love your recaps and interviews TMB. Great to see you repping at nycc. Thanks for sharing! 🌟
I think the numbers in the bottles are coordinates and taking down a bunch messed up where the tree would send someone - sending Dale into the pool wall instead of the lighthouse.
They deprogrammed the tree.
You might be right.
Cant be because episodes before boyd already took some bottles down when he traveled out in the woods with sara and was the first one to find the tree besides victor and his mother so that wouldn’t make sense
Only the chosen ones will be taken to the lighthouse

BTW, your Boyd costume and talisman was the highlight of this episode review!
Thank you! I had so much fun dressing up as Boyd and making people question why I had white hair spray in my beard 🤣
We finally have a town meeting and they don't say a damn thing, ahhhh
Jade cutting through peoples' bullshit gives me life tho
If people had remained calm, they could have accomplished a lot at the meeting. Jade going to the Bottle Faraway tree didn't accomplish anything either. Both of them (Tabitha and Jade) barely moved an inch when Dale hopped into the tree. Made no effort to stop him.
@@angelae5748yea but dale sucks so I wouldn’t move an inch either to stop him
@@blvcksabath2529 I know - he does suck. But I guess that's the definition of what true humanity is. It's easy to help someone who "deserves" it. Much harder to help someone who doesn't "deserve" it. And even for someone who "sucks", Dale did say that when he got back home, he would go find help for everyone else.
Jade was spot on: Any meeting with more than three people (personally I’d say four) is a waste of time.
@@tsm784 I love meetings - doesn't matter the size of the meeting. I love sitting back and watching the politics and power dynamics at play. Who's kissing up to who. Who shoots downs other's ideas, but then agrees when a bigshot says the same thing thar was dismissed when someone lower on the corporate ladder said the same thing. I love studying human nature; and meetings (especially at work,) often provide me with a glimpse into the real world/thoughts/character of my coworkers and managers.
Tabatha talked about the tree and about the lighthouse but she didn’t say that the boy in white pushed her! That’s why she managed to get out.
Did she forget that part because she had head trauma?
@@ashley.taylor174 She told Henry that BIW pushed her. She didn't really get to say exactly . Tabitha should have asked get help and tell them to go where?
I was wondering what Dale's plan was cause he didn't know all that
@ashley.taylor174 I'm guessing she forgot some things, and she will remember them in later episodes.
Dale did what he said he was going to do. He said he was going home to get help. He went home (Fromland), and he got help (Boyd). They are all from Fromland.
13:23 maybe Sarah still has messages from voices. We never did find out whether or not the voices went away, as the writers never addressed that. Maybe she still has them.
Right! And how did she know Julie and Ethan was running out the house?
Victor told Sara to wait for him outside the colony house before he was told about his dad being in Fromville by Donna. So Sara naturally followed him storming out from the colony house, nothing fishy there imo
Great damn episode. This whole season has been amazing. Many things coming together and everyone talking to each other.
Jim DID look for Tabitha at the Bottle Tree!
The numbers in the Bottles are NOT years.
(Or probably not, anyway)
Poor Randall! They must have stitched his face closer with no painkillers!
WOW. That's brutal. I sure hope they doped him hard when they got him to the medical building/former school.
Dale is a moron but shouldn't have have to die that hard. Boyd was going to put him out of his misery too...
Damn near cried from the amazing performance of Victor and his dad meeting.
Dale was a yapper! Kinda glad he's done
You captured exactly the thoughts I had about this episode. Down to the thought that it was dark and they couldn't get to the hospital for medication.
Great recap MB! Loving your breakdowns every week!
Thank YOU neecysmith! I appreciate that you're enjoying them and coming back every week! 🙏🏾♥️
What I fear is the writers won't be able to tie the loose ends. Now there's too much mystery and they have not shown once the answers to any of it. It's always mystery in each epsiode.
this series will probably be 10 seasons long, with a bad ending, GOT S8 happening all over again
Have hope
@@Humb3r89 funny thing to say on a FROM comment...iykyk
@@savemyeyebrows6613 wouldn’t be very interesting if we knew everything tbh I’m just trying to feed the forest need lots of hOPe 😆
The clothes in the basement of Colony House were from the mid 80's, not the 70's.
They even joked about it.
Sooooo....that means people were back in Fromville by the mid-80's.
That means Victor was only alone for five years maximum.
Ethan was left alone for a few minutes while Jim and Tabby went to the meeting.
Ethan has to be big enough to sit alone in a house for fifteen minutes.
damn imagine passing 5 years alone in that place while being a child must be crazy
Depends when in the 1980s. If the clothes are from 1989, then he was there alone for12 years. Also, the date of the clothes being manufactured/made doesn't always equate with the year the clothes are being worn. Lots of people where old clothes. I dont know any who buys a completely new wardrobe every year, and dumps (or gives away) every piece of clothing from the previous year .
Ethan was with jade at that time
One of the monsters is a milk man. Many of them are dressed in 50s, 60s apparel.
Sarah probably just followed Victor's footprints through the fresh snow.
It's nothing more than that.
Yes she did appear to be following him, like she wasn’t too far behind.
He told her to wait for him outside the colony house, so she was right behind him the entire way for sure. So no need to track footsteps even, they were they together from the start of the scene
thank you for posting even tho you're at comicon!! Hope you're having a great weekend. Idk if Dale and Donna are secret lovers but the two have actually been married irl for 30 years!! That might be why it seems like they're in love. Scott McCord does an unbelievable job bringing Victor to life and it was so rewarding to see Victor and Henry reunite this episode 🥹

18:15 I can’t wait to see what the pictures reveal. 😮
Did I thank you for rocking with me in the live stream earlier? THANK YOU! I really appreciated that 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Slow down the video and you can see the kimono woman in the picture behind him.
Also they alreaaadddyy think she's craaazzyy 😅 that's why she got handcuffed... tabby was trying to be careful not to really freak them out bc remember when anyone tells anyone about fromville??! They freak out, they don't believe it and it's never ok well do w.e you say sir or madam
Agreed, they think she’s crazy already and screaming bc of a tree in a road would make her look insane to them.,
Either way if she told them AND they believed her Tabitha didn't know how to get back to Fromville to save anyone.
Great videos, new sub for you!
A couple things: Jim is useless!! Father of the year all the sudden, gimme a break! Put Ellis in the useless category as well, what's he really done besides make a demon baby 😂 i really like that people are communicating finally. Not the town meeting but Randall kinda telling Boyd about when the cicada monster had him, Julie tells Elgion her cicada dream, he tells her about Kimono Lady, Jade and Tabitha talking at the bottle tree. And i thought itbwas funny that Boyd said the monsters want the town to see Randall during the day all scarred up to remember they aren't ever safe, and now every time people walk past the pool they'll see Dale, reminding them there's more out there than the monsters trying to mess with them. Also, the basement in colony house had an archway that looked a lot like the one Miranda painted. Love the channel!
Thank you @nmason, I truly appreciate the sub 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Ellis is a lost young dad. I remember that feeling of aimlessness when I was a young dad and figuring it out as I went along. I also love that the folks are communicating and it's starting to FEEL like things will come to a head sooner rather than later. ALWAYS pay attention when we enter a basement in this show. There's always SOMETHING important that's going to occur when a character goes into a basement 😏
What’re the odds that Kimono lady is Julie and that’s why she’s asking Elgin specifically for help - she remembers him telling her and they’re friends
Julie is not Asian
They did listen to Ethan a little, but Jade is also there for exposition and information and he was the explainer in chief this episode. Or at least the confirm-er in chief. He confirmed that the numbers are important and then he said dates written on the paper, probably. Unless he's wrong and that was a red herring. His last name is Herrera. He confirmed that he saw the tree roots. Some people were convinced they were not roots. Not me, but some. We won't have to hear that weirdness anymore.
10:56 in this episode, we learned that Julie is seeing or rather hearing screaming in her head, Randall might be seeing skulls because that certainly looks like that’s what he was carving… therefore is Marielle seeing?
it looked like randall was craving one of those scarecrow things by the huts with the food
I dont know about skulls but Randall is def still seeing the cicadas. I think there's something in the fact that Marielle is the only one of the 3 that doesn't seem to be suffering any long term effects from being stuck in the nightmare state. She is very sus to me now. Could she have struck a deal with whoever is controlling this place? Could that mysterious medicine that she gave Fatima in an earlier episode be linked with whatever poisoned the crops and that's why she is now able to eat rotten food (and blood)?
@@kevins.2217Was Marielle high when the cicadas attacked her? If she was, maybe that's why she is not having reactions like Juilie and Randall.
@@angelae5748 A perfectly valid question. My only response to that is that Marielle was certainly screaming like Julie and Randall when she was in the dream, so being high (if she was) definitely didn't stop that part of it.
Marielle is probably seeing Smiley. She was having visions or dreams of something when she was left alone in the clinic with his corpse
What if it’s one big PTSD trip from Boyd being at war and none of this is even real, in the end they’re gonna medivac Boyd out of Afghan and he’ll wake up and they ask him where he’s from, I JOKE but this is legit the best series ever, starting to think reincarnation or Fae
RIP pool party Dale😂. Great episode!
Bye Dale👴🏼! We'll miss you 👋🏾
My theory for the far away trees goes like this.
A far away tree will get you anywhere within Fromville randomly, but if you hang specific numbers in bottles (just like coding) you will pick a specific place every time you use the far away tree, that’s why the bottle tree always got people to the lighthouse, but when Tabitha & Jade took some numbers off of the tree, Dale got sent of to somewhere else. Because they altered the outcome of the destination.
Either that or the Entity will send you anywhere they want.
i knew you were one of the ones who got to see the first five episodes, which is why I asked you if you had seen this one and you answered cryptically and that made me wonder how you kept from spoilers during the group[ chat in Jeremy's room last nigh? That must be torture. Great interview with Scott McCord..
Some people only have access to the first 5? 🤔
I have more than 5 😏
I'm pretty sure Sarah knows certain things (Victor's hideout) because of her time spent with the voices in her head. The town probably just told her.
Thank YOU @SBzKillFrenzy!! THIS is what I'm getting at!
In previous episodes, everyone wanted to be mad at Jim for trying to solve things and ending up leaving his family. Now that he has switched to the other foot and is trying to keep his broken family together people are still mad at him for the exact opposite reason, honestly, none of you would be able to handle the dichotomy of the situation that Jim is in. He literally can’t win, but fathers are so often put into that unwinnable Catch-22
Sounds like the definition of "father" to me 🤣
But all jokes aside @TheMikeFloyd, the problem is Jim isn't balancing things out. He's either 100% trying to share information and solve the problem or 100% keeping information to himself and keeping his family together. I, personally, want to see more balance from Jim where he's trying to solve the mystery of how to get home but also doing this while making sure his family is safe. He may need help with communicating when/where he needs help too 🤷🏾♂️
Just started watching ur channel very Entertaining and keeping ur attention. u have a fan 4 life here, my guy keep it up u will reach ur goal

eveeybody got his inner demon in that town! jim with the phone, elgin with the lady, julie with the voice, jade with the visions, its a suffering cycle!! it can just be a purgatory theres no other anwser
If it's purgatory, why are they bleeding? Not to debunk your theory, but a sincere question. You have to be dead to be in purgatory, but we've seen scenes of people bleeding (Tabby, Kristi, Boyd, erc.) So, are they in purgatory, if they're still alive?
9:17 regarding Dale, there were more cracks in the cement in the swimming pool… Could those be holes where other people appeared that tried to go through a far away tree selfishly? Maybe that’s the way they work. If you want to use them for a selfish reason, like Dale… You end up someplace bad, but if you go for an altruistic reason you end up where you’re supposed to be?
Dale said he was going to go get help before going through the tree
@@tmack2135 I think them bothering the bottles before going through the tree. i think the main reason Victor was able to take Tabitha was bc she had lunch box with address . They had open several bottles and then let Dale just walk in to tree no stopped him or mention the light house is where
@@itowilltubeTabitha was chosen to go to the lighthouse and help the children anyways
Excellent review.
Thank you @AllthewaytoZ2! I can't tell you how much really appreciate that 🙏🏾👍🏾
Brilliant vid. Thank you and keep up the great work Hebrew! Liked and subscribed. Stay blessed. Shalom
21:32 great scene!
I really want to know where the motel is...
Me too!
I don't think it was ever built.
Sarah didn't necessarily know where the car graveyard is. She followed Victor there. Also Julie didn't necessarily invade Fatima and Ellis privacy by taking some weed. Remember, it's colony house! They operate like a commune! Everything is for everyone. They share everything.
That might be true admit Sarah following Victor but I've got my eyes on her. We've never seen anyone just go to the car graveyard except Victor 😒
And as far as the weed being communal... Idk, that weed looked like it was being stashed away to me 🧐😅🤣
Scott!!!! Bravo!!!🏆
His performance this episode was... 🥲
Lots of💓for Victor/Scott
I think the numbers in the bottles are coordinates that Miranda finally figured out because the show tells us multiple times that some bottles have been removed since Tabitha has went thru the tree and when dale went thru they removed some more prior that’s why he landed in a random spot and not the light house
That's a dang good theory @diddytytyy3796! My only question would be annoy Miranda and if she was the kind of person to track coordinates. I have a feeling that Tabitha might still be recording dates, even if they don't seem like dates 🧐🤔
dale and donna are married in real life lol that’s the reason why it showed her like that
It's funny you say that about Donna and Dale seeing as they're married to each other in real life.
So weird to see not being childish😂.
Scott played the role well.
This man is gunning for an award!
Fatima need to sit her gross ass down, and acted like Tabitha knew she was coming back to town that meeting really blew me
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sara followed Victor to the car graveyard. Even if she didn't keep up with him, the footprints are in the snow.
11:40 They live in colony house which means they share everything, so even if that wasn't her stuff she would still be welcome to it. However, how do we know that it wasn't hers? She shared that room with them. They set her up a make shift canopy bed when she was feeling home sick.
Julie doesn't live in Colony House anymore. She's been staying with her family since the house collapsed.
I got a interesting theory,victor says that he only draws what he sees/experienced, he never draws something in the past ,what if along with what he sees, he can see what other townsfolk dream/see and thus he draws them.
Didn't Victor say that unlike the other faraway trees, the bottle tree took you to the tower? What happened? Why did it take Dale to the pool?
Victor also said the trees can be temperamental.. maybe for some reason it didn't like Dale
i think them taking down bottle 🍾 down and opening the slips which are prob years you can stamp yourself with
i feel like bc Tabitha had Victor blessing and his Lunch box with an address so when BIW pushed her she had a location
I think it only takes chosen people straight to the lighthouse.
You missed the map behind the ghost in the pic of the trees😊
What map? What ghost??? 🤔🤔🤔

I was thinking that too @MrMoonKnight1 but I cant forget that Sarah hears voices in her head... 🫣

I agree. Thought it got torn down
You might be on to something @Earth-imsick, There may be a story to that like there was a story to the car in the pool

@@katenewell4786thank you, I’m east coast as well
I still think monsters were unable to kill Boyd, probably got some sort of allergic reaction to his blood. He’s been touched by cicadas monsters and probably has blood like Martin/Boyd. This is the second time he survived without getting killed by night monsters
I'm absolutely going to address this during the livestream later today, any chance that you can join today at 5PM eastern? ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI
27:19 such a good actor.
Watch Donna and Henry's scenes again, but play some Boyz II Men or D'Angelo in the background. Victor's definitely getting a new mum.
I think she'll cope just fine with Dale winding up Fromville's version of Han Solo trapped in Carbonite because there was definitely a vibe happening.
Yes! Yes I caught that too! I'm going to go into it a bit during the next live stream. Is there any chance you can join and help corroborate this theory? It's tomorrow at 5pm eastern ruclips.net/user/liveF5AZq_V6MpI?si=puL7MBnb4oB6tP5v
@Themovieblog definitely 😊 here's my thoughts in advance, just in case I forget anything/fall asleep (it'll be late evening here):
I've got a Cabin in the Woods style theory, where Fromville is an evil game that's repeated every generation with new game pieces (humans), but representing the same specific roles, kinda like CITW's athlete, fool, scholar, etc.
Victor is/was the equivalent of that movie's final girl, where it's inconsequential if he lives or dies, just so long as all the other roles meet their pre-ordained fate. That's why he was allowed to chill alone for years after the massacre.
Where Donna and Henry are concerned (we need a cute Bennifer style name for them, lol), I think them becoming a couple might be a big deal in how things pan out.
With the specific roles theory, I think part of that is there's always a nuclear family consisting of a psychic mum who feels compelled to save the kids in the tower, a logical dad who's a problem solver, and a child (age doesnt matter) who's inquisitive, innocent and pure. The presence of a second child in that family is irrelevant.
The Matthews currently have that nuclear family gig, but they're not satisfying the roles these days.
Jim's not the problem solver anymore. He's gone from 'let's build a radio tower' to 'I'm actually cool with being trapped here, as at least my marriage is working out'.
Tabitha was the psychic mum compelled to save the kids, but she went off-script when she escaped.
Any interest in saving the kids will be replaced with 'if you're having anghkooey problems, I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems, but the predicament of random, fictional, obvious manipulation-tactic kids ain't one'.
She got out, so anything she does from here on out will be motivated by self-interest, not some weird, selfless quest to save avatar kids that have always been and always will be.
Ethan is no longer inquisitive, innocent and pure, as he's gone from a precocious little moppet full of hope to a cynical, emo Buzz Killington. Not his fault, but his ability to generate huge amounts of hope and inspiration (which the evil puppet masters weaponise against the townsfolk) has definitely gone.
So, in comes Henry, fresh from the real world, full of 40yrs of data gathering via his wife's clues in the basement, primed to solve some problems. He's New Jim.
Victor is definitely traumatised, but he's never gone full emo like Ethan, as he's always on inquisitive little missions and he's retained his childlike innocence. He's just reunited with his dad, so his hope and inspiration tank has been completely refuelled. He's New Ethan.
So, in order to become New Tabitha, Donna would likely start getting visits from the anghkooey kids and sudden motivation to go galloping through the woods in search of a lighthouse.
Given the puppet masters like crushing dreams and generally harshing anything nice, this arrangement won't last long, though.
I can see an attempt to mind-eff Donna via Dale, given he's permanently Han Solo'ed in that wall, so there's bound to be manipulative Ghost Dale shenanigans on the Horizon.
I can also see an attempt to corrupt Victor, likely through Sarah, given she's already been a tool for evil.
Not sure if you're familiar with the plot of The Stand, but there's a virginal, innocent, nice dude character called Harold who the Big Bad deliberately corrupts.
There's a girl called Nadine who's already been mind-effed by the Big Bad, so she's tasked with introducing Harold to adult activities, therefore 'corrupting' him, which she does. She also gaslights him and warps his mind, so he winds up wiping out a big chunk of his community.
I think that's what's planned for Victor, potentially turning him from New Ethan to New Christopher.
Actually, it's all about 'who will be New Christopher' for me, as there seems to be quite a few contenders for the role of 'dude who used to be super nice and kept everyone's spirits up, who's now turning into The Unabomber'.
It's a bit of a race to that role, as I think every game needs a board-clearing event, so Boyd instantly being completely fine with the concept of taking out Dale was an eyebrow-raiser for me. Like, putting everyone out of their misery wouldn't be too big a leap for him after that. He just needs the last bits of his humanity manipulated out of him.

The discovery of the working Polaroid camera may also connect to the one Polaroid picture we've seen so far with Victor as a child.
The camera still working and the film still being good after so many decades can only happen in Fromland.
Hey From Family!!❤
Hey Hannah! 🤗
Believe it or not guys, the bear trap thing was actually very realistic! We've just been conditioned by hollywood to believe they are much more powerful than in real life. They are designed to just hold the animal and injury usually happens when the animal tries chewing their own leg to get out. On a person it would definitely sink in deep, but not to the bone and permanent injury would be rare, especially since she didn't panic or thrash.
So Julie was right, they let Tabitha out to give them hope, which leads Dale to go through the tree and die. Now they are all scared to leave again.
You might be right @Calinotch! But I feel like the Boy in White might be what led Tabitha to the real world and maybe the dark entity is just taking advantage of the opportunity.
Poor smart Dale 😂😂... but I thought that tree always lead to the lighthouse. Victor told Tabitha that it was "different" from other farway trees(according to Miranda) as it always led to the lighthouses. So what went wrong? Dale's been a jerk, didn't deserve it but someone actually needed to go through. Guess he was the disobedient sacrificial lamb( "I've been here longer than him"😂😂- Dale to Ellis)
I honestly think the trees have a personality all their own and MAYBE the bottle tree one was nice to Miranda and Tabitha but saw something in Dale that it didnt like
@@Themovieblog that's very logical, they were chosen... cos Victor could have done the same all those years
so good.
