Tabitha had nightmares about the city when she was a child
Miranda wasn’t the only one who saw the city beforehand
When Tabitha sees Jade’s drawings of OfIn the forest, she asks if he also saw three large red stones configured in a circle. Tabitha explains that when she was a child she had a recurring nightmare in which she found the three red stones and the wooden statues. Your nightmare reveals that Victor’s mother, Miranda wasn’t the only person who had visions of the city before being trapped there.
Although the full significance of this discovery needs to be explored further, confirms long-standing suspicion that the city does not randomly arrest individuals. At least two of the individuals who were trapped were already connected to the City beforehand, with Tabitha’s connection happening decades earlier. What remains unclear is why the city targeted these specific individuals. Miranda and Tabitha probably aren’t the only ones who had visions before they were trapped, either.

Jim and Tabitha are arguing again
Lingering resentments resurface
Given all the horrors they had to endure, it’s easy to forget that Jim Matthews (Eion Bailey) and Tabitha would get divorced, only to end up stuck in the city with Julie and Ethan (Simon Webster). The issues that led to their impending divorce resurface when Jim and Tabitha begin arguing furiously again.starting with Tabitha frustrated by Jim’s empty assurances that everything will be fine when he can’t know that. The situation continues to escalate with Jim sharing how much he resented Tabitha leaving them alone. Of season 2 finale.
The argument reached a boiling point with Jim accusing Tabitha of wanting a divorce so she could escape the trauma of losing their son, Thomas, rather than trying to keep the family together. This is a reminder that the issues between Jim and Tabitha were never resolved, but simply put on hold during your fight to survive. Between this scene and the phone calls earlier in the season from a voice claiming to be Thomas, it also seems like his deceased son still has a role to play in future episodes.

Fatima is not pregnant
The source of your desires remains a mystery
Thanks to the fully stocked ambulance that brought Tabitha back to town, Kristi (Chloe Van Landschoot) and Marielle (Kaelen Ohm) now have an ultrasound machine at the medical clinic. They use the ultrasound to examine Fatima’s (Pegah Ghafoori) pregnancy, as she and Ellis (Corteon Moore) are worried that something is wrong with the baby, due to Fatima’s abnormal cravings for rotten crops and human blood. To everyone’s surprise, the ultrasound shows that Fátima is not pregnant.
There is something sinister happening inside Fatima, and without knowing what it is, she may be powerless to stop it from destroying her.
Instead of being pregnant, Fátima may have been infected by the city, which would explain her recent food choices. It is also possible that Fátima is pregnant, but not with a human child.and not in a way that can be detected by ultrasound. Both possibilities present a bleak future for Fátima, who is beyond the help of Kristi and Marielle’s medical expertise. There is something sinister happening inside Fatima, and without knowing what it is, she may be powerless to stop it from destroying her.

Kenny moves into the colony house
He needs a new place that feels like home
Kenny realizes that Without her mother, her house in the city doesn’t feel like home anymore. The Matthews family has lived there since their house collapsed at the beginning of Season 2, and Kenny knows the house was made for a family. This leads him to go to Donna (Elizabeth Saunders) to ask if she has any extra space for him to move into Colony House. Donna assures him they always have room for him, followed by Kenny jokingly asking if they still have sex parties there.
Living at Colony House can help Kenny start fresh and rebuild his life in the city after losing his parents. Many of Kenny’s scenes are with Boyd Stevens (Harold Perrineau), Kristi, Jade or Jim, none of whom live at Colony House. Kenny’s new home will give him the opportunity to spend more time with Donna, Elgin, Fatima, Ellis and other characters who live there. Being part of this community must be healthy for him after the losses he has suffered.

Jade goes to the other bottle tree and sees Tom
This was not what he expected to find
Jade went to the distant bottle tree in Of season 3, episode 5, but when he discovers that Boyd and Sara (Avery Konrad) have found another bottle tree in season 1, Jade goes for this one too. This is not a distant tree, but it still contains glass bottles with pieces of paper inside, which Jade is determined to extract and examine as she continues to search for connections and answers. When he arrives at this bottle tree, he sees Tom, the former philosophy professor and town bartender who died at the beginning of season 2.
It is unclear whether this is Tom’s ghost or a manifestation of Jade’s subconscious. Without considering, Tom communicates the message that Jade needs to hear, which is that he needs to get sober and be the same kind of person who built a multi-billion dollar company despite the obstacles that came his way. With Jade so close to a breakthrough, getting sober and reconnecting with her old self could be exactly what’s needed to make the breakthrough possible.

Tabitha sees the “Anghkooey” kids again
This is their first appearance in season 3
For the first time in season 3, Tabitha sees Ofof “anghkooey” children, who she saw repeatedly throughout Season 2. This time, they’re upstairs in her house, and Tabitha begins to explain that she tried to help thembefore she hides in a corner, and Ethan comes to see if she’s okay, only to see that the children have disappeared. Later, Jade tells Tabi that she doesn’t think the kids want to hurt her and that they know she is just trying to help.
Now that it is known that Tabitha had visions of the City when she was a child, this may be related to why she has a connection with children. Between the nightmares, her children, and what happened to her in the outside world, Tabitha has connections and experiences that no one else has. With Jade’s help, I hope she can put all these puzzle pieces together and finally discover how to help children, as well as understanding what “anghkooey” means.

Victor recovers Jasper
It’s another dangerous journey through the tunnels
Victor (Scott McCord) realized in Of season 3, episode 4, that he needs to find Christopher’s ventriloquist dummy, Jasper. That mission was delayed in episode 5 when he learned that his father, Henry (Robert Joy), had arrived in town with Tabitha. Now that Victor has reunited with his father, he resumes his missionand heads to the tunnels where the monsters live to rescue Jasper. Henry enters the tunnels with Victor, but they need to go deeper than expected.
In the same part of the caves where Victor finds Jasper, Henry finds clothes that belonged to his wife, Miranda.
Jasper is located and they manage to escape with him, but not before one of the monsters menacingly tells Victor that if he keeps going down there, they will eventually have to make him stay.

The greater significance of this has not yet been revealed, but now that Victor has Jasper, he can finally get the information he needs of the ventriloquist dummy.

Randall moves into the clinic
Everyone needs a shoulder to lean on
Although Randall has slandered and endangered many others in the town, he has also had a particularly difficult time lately, being possessed by hallucinations of cicadas that almost killed him, being left to the monsters by Boyd, and then attacked by the wildlings. creatures. Living alone on the bus, where he sees the monsters every night, makes things even worse for him. That prompts Marielle to tell Randall that from now on he can live at the medical clinic instead, emphasizing that no one should go through the city’s horrors alone.
When Marielle leaves, the camera stays on Randall, who begins to cry. Although he probably won’t admit it out loud, the kindness Marielle showed him means a lotespecially with all the trauma he’s been through recently. Maybe Randall can find a kinship with Marielle and Kristi that he hasn’t been able to form with anyone else. Even though he is not a medical professional, having another person available at the medical clinic could also be helpful, especially as Kristi continues to recover from a foot injury.

The woman in the kimono is in Fátima’s photo
She still needs Elgin’s help
Using the camera he found with Julie, Elgin takes photos of all residents living in Colony House. What should be a fun activity quickly turns sinister as Of the ghost lady from season 3 appears in the background of Fátima’s photograph, although she was not visibly there when the photo was taken at the beginning of the episode. After Elgin sees this, the kimono-clad woman appears before him again, once again asking for his help, and this time also telling Elgin that she can save him and his friends.
Many previous theories about the ghostly kimono-wearing woman linked her to Fátima. Their connection seems more likely than ever after appearing in Fatima’s photograph. The ghostly woman could be a vision of what will happen to Fatima if she is not saved from the infection or evil that is within her. This means that Elgin could be the key to saving Fátimaalthough it would be beneficial if the woman could specifically tell Elgin how he could help. Only four episodes left Of season 3, it’s time for this long-standing mystery to be answered.
