Fair Enough. My Thought Process Was Based On My Episode Order Theory With Frank And Roy Being More Co-stars

Fair enough. My thought process was based on my episode order theory with Frank and Roy being more co-stars with the boys rather than being the genuine villains of their respective episodes.

Since there's still one or two villains we haven't met yet, there are good odds that episode 6 will introduce them to some extent. We should definitely be on the look out for any red flags with any new characters in the next installment.

I mean there's a chance we do know all the villains we're gonna have though, Frank, Roy, the spider, Skid's dad + cult, Mr Clown, the Candy Dealer, we've got 5 episodes left and lore than enough antagonists to fill each

But yeah it's still good to take note of any new characters, every character that isn't an Easter egg/background character has come back at some point

I know it's a Portal reference but references have been relevant to the plot before, just look at the happy fellas, a reference in their first appearance, a key plot point in the next episode.

I'm thinking about the Candy Dealer and "the sugar is a lie" graffiti behind the candy club. Who left that there? One idea I had was that it was a warning from a former employee for future workers and that CD's been trying to sabotage the store for Eyes knows how long. Another thought was that the dealer himself is a bitter former employee of the candy club, maybe not even the one Kevin works at, just the brand in general. After all his goons are Mexican and so is the candy club as a company.

I mean it's supposed to be a Portal reference but it could be something like that aswell

I think I saw that, it might've even inspired me to question his current status.

I have a feeling the Rick lovers will lynch me for this but, there's a chance he's in with the cult. Him seeing some "forbidden knowledge" would explain his apathy and him being in a secret society would explain how he hasn't been blacklisted from every service industry position in town yet.

I'm not sure if he's exactly already in the cult, but I made a post a little while ago about how I think that, because of the trend of him quitting and getting a job every episode, that he'll someone end up working for the cult in episode 10

I think he's saying the uncle was just a crook who hired the thieves but then Pelo decided to flesh out Roy so he became the creep he is in the final version

(from the viewable-for-all Patreon stuff)

Absolutely boggling to me that the Thieves were originally connected to Roy's uncle... I am so glad Pelo decided not to go for that, it would have made them WAY worse by association

Something that annoys me is that, while I want Susie to have a major role in at least one episode, it's hard for me to think of a situation where it would be logical for her to be a major character. Even when I can there's usually at least one other character that could fill that role just as well, if not better.

If anyone's got any ideas on how Susie could come into play going forward please send some in, I need to hear them.

Okay so I was thinking about your theory/idea thing for SM6, about one of the characters getting "infected" with the sugar high, and I remembered this one doodle Pelo made after TT released

And how Kevin's VA showed a photo of his recordings for Kevin in SM6

Note the bit towards the end where it looks like Kevin goes quiet, only for him to get really loud, like he's screaming a lot; it would fit a horror build-up scene following by him actually losing it

I can absolutely see Kevin being the one of the group to eat the spiked sugar and then attack the others

HOLY SHIT, YOU'RE A GENIUS! I always thought of the doodle as a joke but if Kevin is the one to get "sugared up" it would actually make perfect sense.

Initially I thought maybe John would be the one to get contaminated but that was mostly because of the theory that the Candy Dealer is his brother. Kevin is a way more likely candidate.

Come to think of it, there aren't any giant lollipop props in the candy club, so maybe CD spikes the town by starting his own store, which ends up being where Kevin gets contaminated and where he finds the giant lollipop.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

On a side note, I imagined the characters having some change to their eyes as a visual shorthand for them being "infected" with the "sugar high" but couldn't come up with what it would look like. But now, I think they might turn purple, like CD's eyes (I refuse to believe them looking like that is just shading).
