Christopher was talking to the boy in white, not Jasper

This changes the context of Victor’s memory

Victor spent much of season three trying to figure out what Jasper said to Christopher years ago. With the help of Tabitha Matthews (Catalina Sandino Moreno), Victor realizes that this memory happened in the church basement and, when he goes there, he realizes that it was the Boy in White, not Jasper, who was talking to Christopher. This is similar, but not exactly the same, to one of the best Of theories from season 3 that suggested the Boy in White and Jasper are the same entity.

The Boy in White told Christopher that “the answers to the end are in the beginning” and that he needed to pass a distant tree. Victor also realizes that this is why his mother later passed by one of the distant trees, although her fate after doing so remains a mystery. Although it seems the Boy in White may be trying to help the residentsVictor also knows that it was after this interaction that Christopher took a dark turn, for which the Boy in White may be responsible.

Boyd hides Fatima from the residents

He will do anything for his family

Although Fátima murdered another resident, Boyd is still determined to protect her. He hides her in the woods while he and his son, Ellis (Corteon Moore), decide what to do next. Fátima is not just another resident, but is Boyd’s daughter-in-law. Boyd has already lost his wife, Abby (Lisa Ryder), because of how the town and its supernatural forces took over her, and he refuses to see the same thing happen, and to see Fatima suffer a similar fate.

While Kenny Liu (Ricky He) and Acosta (Samantha Brown) question the other residents and investigate Tillie’s death, Boyd pretends not to know what really happened. The situation of Fatima is making it increasingly difficult for Boyd to balance protecting his family while also protecting all of the county’s residents. Soon, Boyd may not be able to protect both of them and will have to decide whether that means saving Fatima at the expense of the other residents or saving the residents at Fatima’s expense.

After all, Fátima is pregnant

Elgin is strangely invested in her pregnancy

According to the ultrasound in Of Season 3, Episode 6, Fátima is not pregnant. However, Elgin confirms otherwise when he tells Fátima that she is pregnant, even though the baby is not hers. Elgin takes his own blood so that Fatima can drink it, lures her to the cellar and forces her to stay there when she tries to escape. As Elgin is receiving instructions and trying to help the skeletal woman in the kimono, it appears that Fatima may be carrying her baby.

Fatima being Forced to carry and give birth to a baby against their will is one of the Ofthe darkest stories of all time. It’s also chilling to see the normally gentle Elgin making Fatima suffer, and although he believes he’s doing the right thing, he’s being manipulated by the woman in the kimono. She told Elgin that she could help save him and his friends, and he may have the mistaken belief that this promise will be honored if he ensures the safe delivery of her baby.

A future version of Julie threw the rope to Boyd in Season 2

From officially introduced time travel

When Boyd was at the bottom of the dungeon in the Season 2 premiere, someone threw a rope at him. Who threw the rope was never answered, because when Boyd went upstairs, he only saw Martin (Robert Verlaque), who was chained to the wall. “Thresholds” finally answers this mystery when Julie Matthews (Hannah Cheramy) is transported to the dungeon, she time travels to the past and sees the trapped Martin, who tells her to throw the rope into the well. She then travels to another point in time before Boyd ascends.

This confirms that a future version of Julie threw the rope to Boyd in season 2. Such a revelation changes the entire structure of Ofas time travel is now officially part of the series’ fictional universe. Time travel has the potential to explain many other mysteries about the city, its history, its origins, and could even be the key to unlocking the secrets about how to escape. The mystery of OfThe missing motel, which was emphasized at the beginning of Season 3, could also be answered through time travel.

The children were killed by someone they trusted

Betrayal is rooted in the city’s history

As Victor recalls what was said between the Boy in White and Christopher, he provides new insight into Ofof “Anghkooey” children. He remembers the Boy in White telling Christopher that children were born in the dark and then murdered in the dark by the people they loved and trusted. This information can help Tabitha better understand her views of childrenalong with his mission to free them, which Victor’s mother also believed she should do.

The terrible injustice done to children may be at the heart of how the city and OfMonsters were created. The monsters could be those who murdered the children and are being eternally punished for their sins. This memory suggests that Tabitha’s focus on helping children is even more important than she realizedas saving them may be the only thing that can undo the tragedy that created the city, which could also free the currently imprisoned residents.

The origin of the mysterious Jade symbol is revealed

Children’s hope created symbol

Victor’s memory of the Boy in White also includes a long-awaited answer behind the origin of the mysterious symbol that Jade Herrera (David Alpay) has been seeing since season one. when the children lay on the rocks, they poured their hope into the roots that became a tree. Upon listening to Victor, Sara realizes that this is how OfThe distant trees were created, which makes sense given that the Boy in White told Christopher that he would have to go through a distant tree to save the children.

Despite the dark history of Ofsymbol of, this explanation makes the symbol seem like a good thing born of hope, as it created the distant trees and provided a way out of the city. When Jade saw the children lying on the rocks and looking at the roots for Of By the end of Season 2, they were putting their hopes in the roots and making them grow. Despite the skepticism of others, Jade was right about the symbol, the distant trees, and the children all being connected.

Residents blame Sara for Tillie’s death

Sara’s Season 1 Murders Still Haunt Them

As Boyd is hiding the truth about what really happened to Tillie and is trying to protect Fatima, Residents naturally direct their suspicions toward Sara, who killed several characters in Season 1. Boyd knows Sara didn’t kill Tillie and does his best to defend her, but there’s a limit to what he can say or do without revealing what Fatima did. When Boyd finally admits the truth to Donna (Elizabeth Saunders), he insists that the residents will give Fatima the same benefit of the doubt as they gave Sara.

Donna explains that they only gave Sara the benefit of the doubt because they trusted Boyd, but she emphasizes that they never accepted what Sara did. Donna also points out that residents lost much of the faith they had in Boyd, and that they will not accept what Fátima did. The residents’ unresolved anger toward Sara, what they will do when they learn that Fatima killed Tillie, and their diminished faith in Boyd do not bode well for the future.

Henry gives Jim advice

Their interaction could point to something more sinister

After Jim Matthews (Eion Bailey) goes to the bar and argues with Jade, Victor’s father, Henry Kavanaugh (Robert Joy), offers Jim advice. Henry explains that he sees Jim making the same mistakes he made. Miranda’s visions of the city and her fixation on saving the children caused Henry to hold on tighter and try to “fix” his wife, although he now realizes that she was never “broken” and sees Jim doing the same with Tabitha . . He also warns Jim about the dangers of trying to control his family.

As two parents currently struggling to connect with and help their children, Henry and Jim have a lot in common. Although Henry’s advice may seem helpful, his presence at the bar before Jade’s arrival is not explained and is forgotten due to Jade and Jim’s argument. Henry may be genuinely trying to help Jim, but Jim is also easily manipulated and Henry may be using this against him. Is this the beginning of a promising friendship or part of the gradual revelation that there may be something more sinister going on with Henry in Of season 3.
