    *THIS VIDEO IS A REUPLOAD* The old one got restricted it so I had to cut it up to be more ad friendly. Thanks for watching and hopefully this whole kerfuffle doesn't completely kill the hype of the video.
    And also want to give a big shoutout to Mannco.store for sponsoring. Their help has made all the work that got put into this video worth it. Turns out spending lots of money on tf2 items has it's perks sometimes lol. Check 'em out!

    This video has been in the works for months thank you so much to everyone who watched it! Before I was able to upload my video, someone else also made a breakdown of emesis blue, but I haven't watched it yet cause I didn't wanna accidentally copy their work.
    Here's the video and I'm gonna watch it later to see how our theories stack up against each other and if you want more Emesis Blue content I recommended giving it a shot as well

    A theory I have on why Scout seems more messed up by the respawn machine than everyone else comes from a Reddit thread, someone on Reddit asked which class dies the most often and I saw a lot of people say the Scout due to his low health, fast paced and rush down style of gameplay. So if Scout is the one dying the most then he is also the one respawning the most which could explain why the Respawn machine has messed him up more than the others.

      If you pay attention to Scout's medical report you will notice that it's written as patient SC-10498 as a way to refer to Scout. we can guess that SC is short for Scout Class while the number is probably how many times scout respawned AFTER the trials for the respawn machine were completed so Scout probably died and respawned way more times

    One thought I had...
    In the Emesis Diazepam teaser, it's listed that the medication is compounded specifically for each perscribed patient. Perscription medication, such as Ritalin and Dexamphetamine, do have unintended effects on those not perscribed for it. My thought is that, given how many bottles can be seen in multiple scenes, that both RED and BLU purchased bulk loads of expired Emesis Diazepam that are perscribed to someone else to give to the mercs. The tablets were never going to work on the mercenaries.

    I think the plague doctor is Death itself. His ultimate goal is to destroy the respawn machine, the only thing that can counteract him. It also explains why he's in Medic's nightmares and why they play chess, as that is what doctors do: fight back death. The only people who can see or interact with him are those who went through the respawn machine as they've died before. If the briefcase _does_ contain souls or the like, he's trying to collect what he's owed. When ordered to open it, Medic says "I can't, it's not mine." What does open it? _The crash that kills him._
    He also drives a hearse, which is a bit on the nose but still fits.

      I'm kinda torn about all the references. While some like Demo in Dell's bar fit really well, others feel on the nose and almost out of place, especially shawshank redemption one and the "ol' regular zombies" sequence also feels out of place. Overall I feel like the amount of them hurts the movie a bit, doesn't let it fully stand on its own. At some points you start to think "how many of the scenes are references then?" and it detracts from the experience.

    Theres a glimpse where spy also has red and blue eyes before switching to soldier's panel but red was surrounding the blue. Signifying hes totally given up that side of him.
    And During Medic's miraculous revival his face was emotionaless because for some reason whatever is bringing him back has not fully revived him and is still doing so, later his face becomes clearer. He doesnt speak or make any emotions during that time because dead corpses stiffen, we even see that he isnt even fully in control of body yet as he falls down the coffin. As the story nears its end we can see medic slowly regaining the color of his skin too.
    Another interesting thing you probably missed is that as Medic spared the ambulance driver the lights are blue. And abulances have both red and blue lights, yet here the light red doesnt touch him and red lights are off. Theres a possibility the one in control isnt the insane version of him. Its just him. A
    He experienced different type of respawn, a better way of getting revived, relying not on the respawn chamber. His true "rebirth" in the movie since he also has that ability. The moment he accepted the dark parts of him but still his sanity was in control.
    But I also believe that since this story is also based on Psyche, also mean he adopted/accepted his dark side but the one in control in the true him. The him that posses both law and order, light and the dark. Making him at hus full potential.
    As the old saying goes.
    "To conquer your demons you have to accept them." So medic here has conquered his underworld but not fully since all individuals who have conquered thier hell must face it one more time to test if they have truly conquered it. And thats where the movie in the end happened. His relapse using the drugs. The one causing his hell. His dark side coming out when it was revealed what this pills actually were.
    His coming out the coffin was a metaphore about being "born again." In a new light. Basically the heroes journey if this was Psychology.
    But sadly that "rebirth" ends short causr he actually dies.
    But who knows? Doc does have this certain power. Itll probably be used in the next film
    Would also like to note that soldier here isnt that dumb. Hes aware. So hes just old here and slightly brain damaged but he isnt like the soldier in the TF2 we know who can be shocked with a bucket and something more inside it. Maybe this clone is a lot closer to the original soldier where hes actually more veteran like. The fauled clones are the ones with probably unrecognizable goofy personality with pbviously lower I.Q. this one however somehow got the right personality. This is the soldier who served the war

      To add to what Valium is used for irl and what TWS says about sniper, it might be that sniper HAS taken the pills like the other mercs have, and (at least for scout) it can be inferred that Scout and Sniper have died a similar amount of times before, but we see sniper die at least once in the film while in the slaughter house without the pills. Another thing for sniper to be SO mentally broken is that his body might be drug resistant (like mine is.) He may have taken these pills so much that not only is his body growing a tolerance to it so it feels like an eternity regardless of whether he takes them or not, his body might also relapse when he doesn't, making it worse. It would explain better why sniper laughs so manically when he first bleeds out, cause he already knows what's coming and is having a mental breakdown just thinking about it as we KINDA see with soldier, realizing what's happening at the funeral and breaks down mentally.

    A theory I also like is that the Plague Doctor is a representation of Death, wanting the respawn machines gone so it can claim the souls of the always respawning mercenaries. "It's an eternity in there" because Death tries to hold onto them, tries to keep them dead, yet even so they always come back to life. The Plague Doctor distroting reality with it's very being as it is an entity beyond anything we could understand.
    Edit: Some things that I found on a rewatch of the original that IMO play into this theory are:
    1. Soldier immediately asks if the Plague Doctor is an undertaker, and Spy says "almost" as response, alluding that their job isn't that to an undertaker, but closely related.
    2. The Plague Doctor gets stopped by police in "Purgatory Avenue" and after doing something to the police officer, soldier calls it "Purgatory".
    3. In the short scene where Medic is trapped in the coffin, the Plague Doctor is the only other character there, calmly watching as someone already inside a casket, comes back to life.

    Something I realised while watching the analysis: during Soldier WW2 hallucination, Medic is seen playing chess with the Plague Doctor, the latter whom moves a blue pawn as an opening. Remember at the beginning of the movie when Scout's face is seen above a chess board? Said board has one blue pawn in the middle of it, surrounded by red pieces, representing scout's being trapped in the scene. Blue pawn is the Scout. That opening move is sending the Scout (blue pawn) towards the medic. Meaning the Plague Doctor intended for Scout to somewhat notice his presence and go see the Medic for it, kicking in the events of the movie.

    Btw, isn't Emesis a medical word for vomit? Then Emesis Blue might just mean "regurgitating the BLU mercenaries back". The respawn machine is meant to bring them back to life intact, but is actually just regurgitating them from death. Their original selfs (soul + mind + body), (I imagine, awaiting to go to eternal rest), are forcefully brought back, as whatever it happened to them in the other side is not reversed. I imagine, it can reverse the physical part, which stays on this world. But the spiritual part is regurgitated. Destroyed, mashed together, and put back in place.

    I actually think that Demoman's death is actually not only poetic, but a perfect end to his character. I mean, think about it. This poor bastard has been dismembered and resuscitated for god knows how long for someone else's sick amusement, yet only in the comforting embrace of the cold can he finally properly rest. Sure, freezing to death is an unpleasant way to go, but it's clear that not only did he not actually suffer, since he managed to see Conagher one last time before passing on, but the way he died was perfectly crafted by fate itself to make sure he suffers no longer, even in death. His body is perfectly perserved in ice, with no deformations present aside from the one he already had. If anyone ever tried to deform him further, he would just crumble. No longer will he have his body mutilated beyond recognition, for the cold embrace of death itself has made sure that no-one will ever be able to touch him with the intent to harm ever again.

    I wonder if the plague doctor might be the medic from the end, now knowing about the respawn machine and ready to take it out, unintentionally acting as the main catalyst for all of the events, as they keep restarting the timeloop.
    I think it explains how they are able to drive the car when the present-day medic is driving the ambulance and also why their playing chess in the PTSD Flashback - It is quite literally mind bending game they are playing, with the plague doctor winning every time as the same ending is achieved every single time.
    It is very interesting though, but I don't know, maybe the plague doctor is more a representation of the 'red side' within medic, the psychopathic-murderous side of him. It would kind of make sense that side would be fully in control, as you say, since the medic has most likely gone fully insane after the effects of living infinite times and dying infinitely in the same ways, with him fully embracing the chaos and destruction.
    Anyways, sorry for the rant, just thought it was cool. I always thought that the story of Emesis Blue was complicated but with good reason, but now I see it just takes a little digging and a reading/watching of the shining!

Also, he is marked with "M", supposed stating that he is the killer of scout's mom, but he didn't. But, if he had come back as the plague doctor, then technically he WAS the killer. Plus, the medic drives exclusively an ambulance, a symbol for life, and the plague doctor drives exclusively a hearse, a symbol for death.

    So I have a mini theory about what is going on, especially with the emesis diazepam.
    Emesis means “the action or process of vomiting” aka a fancy term for throwing up what’s in your stomach, and as you mentioned, diazepam is for alcohol withdrawal and anxiety, and Valium being another name for the diazepam.
    Saying this, I believe that the hallucinations that all the mercs are seeing are their mental “emesis”, a throwing up of their own psychosis and the effects of the respawn machine.
    Medic having some sort of split personality, red light being the emesis of his own sins. The medical malpractice he has done in the past, seeing what happened to a previous version of the blue spy, his own personal mental health deteriorating over the course of this movie.
    Scout being mentally and physically disabled by the machine, and being the reason why medic is having his “emesis” response to everything.
    Soldier being brought back to the war via simple things being more akin to a ptsd driven flashback, having his emesis respond being less extreme than medics because he didn’t take the Valium. Maybe the reason why he managed to live is because of the fact that his “emesis” was not amplified by the medication, compared to everyone else’s.
    Again, the monster scout being the main reason why he had those flashbacks to the war, the reason for his “emesis” of his mental issues of possible ptsd from World War Two.
    The medication brings out the worst in the mercs, heavy’s job mentality and hunting down his past teammates, spy arrogance and smoking habits ending with him burned and shot to death, medic psychosis and split personality becoming worse after every death, scout being a both a metaphorical and physical monster to everyone in the slaughter house, engineer being the bartender, demo’s relapse in the bar and subsequent death, snipers being extremely aggressive post revival, pyro menacing aura being worse without their more childlike behavior, all becoming worse people after taking the medication… all accept soldier.
    Soldier was the only one who appeared to never take the pills, his “emesis” being tamer and much less frequent than the others thanks to it. His “emesis” being a result of ptsd than the medication, and it appears that he is respawned differently than the other mercenaries.
    I’m not going to theorize about soldier and the implications of him being frozen in test tubes in the lab, but I have ideas.
    Tdlr: the medicine the blue team takes is making them hallucinate and turning them into worse people than before, soldier is the only one not effective by it as he doesn’t take it. The medicine has an effect that can basically be said as a mental vomiting of one’s own issues, and it is amplified by the respawn machine thanks to it.

    There's one more tie-in to Spy's Disguise you missed. The scene at the end of the film where medic crashes the ambulance actually happens directly after Spy's Disguise. If you look closely, the scar on his cheek matches the one he has in that video, something he had nowhere else in Emesis Blue. So assuming Spy's Disguise took place before the events of Emesis Blue, that's actually the first time we see him die.

      The movie really isn't in chronological order goddamn. Perhaps when Medic dies in the ambulance, he wakes up in his office at the beginning of the movie, having imagined the events of Spy's Disguise as a dream or (due to the diazepam) a vague memory which he quickly forgets as Jeremy knocks on his door. As for the Plague Doctor, it could be death about to take Medic for good, only for the time loop to save him at the last second.

    A small but very visible detail in Scout's apartment when Medic checks in on him. When Medic sees the M and then the knocking, at the moment of him falling and hitting his head you can see the very same hallway with no M written on the wall. This further implies that Medic is losing his shit.

      The M symbol is actually a reference to the classic movie called 'M', made in 1931, by Fritz Lang, a German director. The movie is about a child killer.
      There are some things in that movie that are relevant to Emesis Blue. For example, in the film, the killer had a habit of whistling the song "In the Hall of the Mountain King." In Emesis Blue, when Scout turned to his right, he suddenly heard the same song being whistled by someone.

    This analysis really helped me contextualize some of the minor details I glossed over when I first saw emesis blue, but I do have one objection to make. Your thoughts on the non-linearity of time feel convoluted in a way they don't need to be, though having watched your video to the end I understand how that specific detail is crucial to your take away of the film.
    Rather than the whole situation being an endless loop repeating with each character only having vague memories. I believe, quite simply, that when they say "it's eternity in there" they mean it literally. They might not spend an actual eternity in what is for all intents and purposes purgatory but they do stay for "longer than you think" and during that time they can experience Any Moment in eternity and in a weird homage to the movie interstellar the mercs can not only witness moments from their pasts and futures but interact with them.
    Other than that it was a lovely video.

      I always thought like sniper, Pyro remembers his time in the respawn machine and was deeply traumatized by the events. So he attempted to kill himself via burning, but instead failed and not is a burnt disfigured man. Or while he was being respawned, the respawn machine malfunctioned and set Pyro's skin ablaze and turned him into the thing we see him as now.

    1:47:30 I don’t know if this is intentional but I small niche detail that I will say anyway, is the title of the newspaper ‘Mortem’ means death in Latin, while ‘Post’ means after, hence the saying ‘Post Mortem’ meaning after death. With Dell’s being a stasis between life and death, the phrasing could mean that it’s a place before dead but after life. If we translate the literal meaning of the tabloid title, it comes out to ‘The Death Post.’

    • @OneSingularStair
      @OneSingularStair 2 місяці тому +1

      This could reaffirm the stance of ‘What is Dell’s?’. But I also believe it could be a place of judgement, though I’m a bit less certain of that. If the drifter decided to relapse, meaning they give up on seeking help and betterment, they die. But if they choose to leave (or wake up), they are given a chance at redemption. Like a final decision to make to see if the person is worthy despite previous sins.

Even though we know the Demo man is reasonably dead, he’s able to move his body to help soldier (via holding up the grenade for soldier).
