GLITCH.

GLITCH.

GLITCH.

Is that S?

Is that the character I've been losing my mind over for almost a year?

They're beautiful.

Calling it RIGHT NOW: V and Lizzy are going to, bare minimum, interact. They are going to talk directly to each other.

BUT

HEAR ME OUT

J's fight with Lizzy, Thad and Khan (of which she is most likely winning) is interrupted by rumbling. A murder drone in eldritch form ERUPTS from the ground. Everybody is horrified, even J, ESPECIALLY J. While they're frozen in fear, the entity looks around with the cameras covering its "body". Those cameras seem to find what they're looking for.

Unfortunately, once all the cameras lock onto their target, we find out that that target is Lizzy. The mass lunges toward her to her screams.

It cuts to a black screen and silence. . .

Only to cut back to Lizzy slowly opening her eyes, is she... wrapped in something?

Yes, yes she is.

Wrapped in V, in a really, really disturbing hug.

Cue J saying something quippy and V retorting with a very long and angry "I've had a long fucking day" rant.

That my perfect episode 8

MD characters ranked by babysitting skills

You can pry my babysitter Doll headcanon out of my

cold dead hands.

also don't ask why I put that random human woman in the second to top tier, she just reminded me of my cousin and that made me happy. :D

Ok, so I've brainstormed a few reasons for J to join team good guy:

"Boss, what's wrong with your voice? ... Where is Tessa?"

Low Screentime Squad (-1) appels to her doubts, like Uzi did with N but far, far more aggressively

V interrupts the fight in eldritch form and somehow convinces her

Low Screentime Squad (-1) wins and she doesn't get a choice

That or she either dies or isn't J of witch nether would surprise me.

Bonus points if one of the lower three lead into 1.

Wait... wait waIT WAIT, HEAR ME OUT

WHAT IF VIZZY GETS CONFIRMED IN PRIDE MONTH?!

THERE'S USUALLY ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF GAP BETWEEN EPISODES (episodes 1, 2, and 7 being outliers for obvious reasons) BUT THEY ALSO SAID THAT EPISODE 8 WAS GOING TO BE DELAYED SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hi, I'm taking this. It's mine now.

Ep7 CYN-N interaction makes the idea of Eldritch V more interesting

CYN can't influence N at all due to UZI replacing her as N's admin.

UZI also replaced CYN as V's admin.

Call it pure delusion if you want, but I'm wondering if this means that Eldritch V would truly be V.

I'm imagining a scene where it looks as if J is on the verge of killing Lizzy, Thad, and Khan before a massive, sentinel infused Eldritch form rises out of the Cabin Fever Labs sinkhole.

The audience obviously resigns themselves to despair thinking that all three are going to die, only for the monster to suddenly pin J down as it's revealed to be Eldritch V, fully conscious and in control of her core thanks to UZI acting as her admin.

This reveal wouldn't denigrate V's sacrifice at the end of Ep6, as V obviously wouldn't have known UZI even was her new admin, much less what the impact of that would be. She was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice to ensure everyone's safety.
