      1. That baby is definitely is a changeling
      2. They are sacrificing the babies to another being
      3. Emma is trying to find the being to get the real Brian back

    My favorite episode, so far. I'm suspicious of Apollo's father AND mother. Maybe changelings make it to adulthood unaware of what they are, until something awakens it, like in the case of William seeing the photo of Emma. Great review. Thanks.

    I think Apollo is Mixed half Witch and half Fairy because of the lineage of her mother and father. And that is part of the reason he's special because Emma Hit him dead in the face with a Hammer that should of hurt him more. And when they had him under the water he just looked to calm as they was drowning him for a second.

    Side note I think the photo is absolutely striking. Emma is a good model lol

  •  Рік тому +2

    I frigging love this show. What stood out to me about the picture is that she's in a doorway. Doorways are portals. Also her hand posture I believe is masonic
    Also notice how they address the husbands - "I'm emmas" like they belong to them
    I believe all the fathers have demonic seed. That's what is causing the changeling to be born

  • @labelme7642
    @labelme7642 Рік тому +16

    Theory.
    Emma was already pregnant when the pic was taken. Kindergarten thought he'd taste delicious.
    The red string was for protection, blue eyes done already seen't it.
    Lillian swapped out baby Brian for the changeling, she gave it back to the water where trolls like Kinder Garten lives and feed, or, she made a pact to feed them if they released the real baby apolo to her after big brian west came to get him while Lillian was working all those Saturdays

      This could totally be real! Because Mom was at work when his father came to the apartment... I think Apollo is totally remembering wrong! I think he was taken. And your theory feels spot on. Mom knows more than she's saying and she definitely has something to do with all of this. I truly believe the witch by the waterfall was trying to protect her from an affliction that was or was about to be placed on her.

    Remember the first time when the witch was at the lagoon and Emma was walking away?. That Witch did a swan-like comeback gesture towards her. I think it kind of put some kind of mind control to make her want to come back because the just let the lady touch her. Like any normal person would flinch even if they didn't get that warning,if we are in a foreign land and some stranger reached out to touch you, you're going to flinch or pull back naturally. She didn't flinch or anything like she was under a spell. grown woman. That guy was dead azz serious telling her not to go there. What she did was beyond Adventurous.

    Someone on the subreddit claims to have translated what William says in Norwegian. They said it's perfectly understandable Norwegian with a heavy American accent and that he says:
    "How funny!"
    "How funny!"
    "Don't play!"
    "I'm going to watch you die!"
    "I'm going to watch you die!"
    "I'm going to watch you die!"

      And yeah, his actor is really good! If you ever look up live shows of his band Future Islands you'll see him occasionally slip into that monster voice when he's singing. (And look up his sick dance moves while you're at it!) He was the *perfect* choice to play a character who looks like a middle-aged IT guy that's secretly a terrifying fantastical being. From what I can see in the end of the episode they didn't give him a completely different face, they just did the opposite of the makeup effects that they did for William. I noticed from the first time we see Samuel T. Herring as William that they made him look a bit heavier and older than he is in real life. Then as Kinder Garten it just looks like they made him look younger and creepy.

    You asked how did William eat his child and no one knows... We don't know what happened to him... If he was activated as a fairy, he probably took his actual daughter and ate her, but replaced her with a changeling which forced Greta to kill the changeling Agnes. That would explain why she's familiar with Cal and the island. Remember, all of the women there, and assumingly those who have been to the island, had to kill their children in order to get there. But also, IDK... Cuz then wouldn't she be wanted by the police!!??? IDK anymore lol

    I think Brian is where Emma is and baby Brian. When Emma’s sister asked where Brian was she said NOT HERE. I Think the mist is the glamoured doorway to the other world and Apollo would go there when his mom would leave him. What I’m interested in is the post from Canadian Beavers 1867 and that said “ the prisoner in apt 43 strangled dad. Maybe Brian is being held prisoner.

    The Norwegian bloodline could be the connection, but Apollo would have been baptized because his mother believes in baptism, and this is why she advised Emma to get the baby Brian baptized early on. This saying that baptism could be what saved Apollo form being switched or becoming a changeling.
    Apollo dad could have been killed by Lillian and his body could be in the red suitcase which sunk to the bottom of the river.
    Wild speculation - Emma could be in the land of the fairies looking for her real son Brian.

    This was an episode focused on a woman's natural power and women passing on wisdom, knowledge and life/ survival skills to one another. Society has taught men & women to fear this. We as an audience even fall for that. Many feared when we see the Old Woman at the Lagoon. She taught Emma that she could she wished but to be mindful of what they are. That she needed to protect them like she would the red string and they would come true. Wisdom.
    IMO William is a human monster who named himself Kinder Garden. He may not have always been but that way but is who he is now just like Daddy Brian. It is their actions that make them a monster. William did kill his daughter and Daddy Brian may have tried the same. Human monsters with a pack to do more harm, more of them with the expertise to gaslight the women's lives they have touched using technology not magic.
    IMO the photograph of Emma is who she really is. The fact that she is nude shows there's nothing being hidden. That kind of honesty frightens some people. She is shown as powerful determined woman not a sorceress.
    As always Elliott I enjoy your thoughtful videos and highly recommend your channel. Be well❤

That hammer to the face like that should’ve killed him. He was still able to beg for his sons life. I think the mom of Apollo is sus af. I believe she is a witch and made a wish to have Apollo not knowing Brian apollos dad is a fairy or dark elf or something. If Apollo isn’t a changeling he is definitely a half breed of some sort.

    Well it wouldn’t be surprising if there are police officers who were replaced by changelings especially if they have some form of European descent one thing is for certain though I think we all called it on the fact that William is not who he says he is but then the question is what happened to the real William if there ever was a real William when did he get switched if at all because there Hass to be a real form of the person that they are switching with and if they didn’t switch out at let’s just say a young age then it makes me think that they switched out these adults at a random time in your wife because here’s another thing assuming that William‘s daughter Agnes is human that makes me wonder if so what happened to the real William but if not then it kind of leaves a problem of is the child half human and half changeling which I doubt or is it that after A man meets a woman they settle down they have kids that man is replaced and so the father that’s been switched for another will either do one or two things switch their child out like Apollos father or do what William did and I’m assuming he was a defective type which is he went on a identity crisis form of killing spree where he was tied between love ,hunger, as well as being caught between the identity of William and kindergarten depending on how long kindergarten has been at this he’s probably a more rogue faction of already mischievous creatures of changelings the type that eats the babies versus the type that just takes them which feels more believable when talking about the Fae that they’re not just one thing particular.
