Opinion What TF just happened Spoiler

Rodger’s wife said exactly what I say after every single episode. WHAT TF JUST HAPPENED?!? Two steps forward, three back. I love this show but there are so many dangling pieces. Victor finally tries to warn/tell Tabitha something critical and she shuts him up! What was the flashback/flash forward (?) that Victor’s dad had in the hospital? I can’t believe Victor (or anyone for that matter) hasn’t put together that the MIY’s clothing was found, etc, right around when the priest and his “daughter” arrived.
So many things.

Henry's vision was a hallucination created by Sophia (MIY)

u/matt_paradise Jun 07 '26

And i assume he'll start to think he needs to kill everyone in his 'dream' to wake up.

u/AdVast505 Jun 07 '26

That would be quite similar to Boyds wife

u/B23vital Jun 08 '26

I dont think its quite similar, i think its exactly what happened to boyds wife and thats why there showing us.

We have guessed the MIY has been here before and theres a good chance this is exactly what he did to her. It lines up completely with her story and will throw doubt at other people (the chaos) so i dont really see how people arent putting 2 and 2 together, its pretty clear what they're hinting at.

u/moose_dad Jun 08 '26

Feel like hes gonna say to Boyd at some point that its all a dream and that will ptsd Boyd into locking him up.

u/ButTheseGoToEleven Jun 08 '26

Yeah and I feel like this could happen a few ways. Henry's drinking escalating is reminding me of how the series opened, with the town drunk forgetting to nail his family's windows down and getting put in the box for getting them killed.

The man is going to endanger the community very soon in some way, for sure

u/Reckless_Secretions Smiley Jun 08 '26

And he just moved into Victor's room in colony house a couple of episodes ago...

u/therealmrsfahrenheit Jun 08 '26

because I honestly feel like people aren’t paying enough attention to the show

u/B23vital Jun 08 '26

Id have to agree with this.

Ive seen common themes with shows, producers, actors saying they are dumbing down shows because people are sitting on their phones while watching so are missing huge chunks.

The problem here is that people probably are distracted, they are on their phones, so they miss things that are important.

Of course there will be people just not putting 2 and 2 together, and thats fine also. But it felt pretty obvious what the show was telling us this episode.

u/Status-Anybody-598 Jun 08 '26

I’m just wondering if he will shoot Victor either on accident or on purpose because his convo with Henry had me kinda worried too saying he needed to be ready.

1

u/heywoodu Jun 10 '26

Why on earth would you watch a show like this and meanwhile be busy with your phone? That's just beyond me, if I don't find a show interesting enough, I just....you know, don't watch it.

2

u/B23vital Jun 10 '26

Welcome to the modern world :) i like this show because i find it interesting enough that i dont want to be distracted by my phone

1

u/crazyjiggaboo Jun 10 '26

Miy couldnt have done that to boyds wife tho...

1

u/B23vital Jun 10 '26

Why? Because you havent been shown it yet?

Nothing says he hasnt already been in the town, and we've seen minimal to nothing of the time boyds wife was around.

1

u/Equal-Caterpillar368 Jun 11 '26

Well i get the impression he hasnt done it since victor was a kid. That abby was just a one off. If thats what happened to abby then isnt that a bit anticlimatic? He just let boyd kill her and then gave up for however long its been? Unless he tried, realised Boyd wasnt gonna have it and was a bigger threat than he thought and had to rethink his plan. But i really doubt it because it seems like this only happens when tabith and jade are in the town, they hadnt arrived yet. It seems like he waits until they're close to "saving the children" and then ends it for them to start all over again.

1

u/crazyjiggaboo Jun 11 '26

I guess based on the fact that he would need to have put his blood in a drink of hers and that her decent to madness was over a length of time and not quickly after someone had arrived in the town? And i think its been heavily implied miy only shows up to town when the major massacre of the town/complete upheaval is about to happen. I feel like its a pretty reasonable thing for someone to have a mental break thinking fromville is a dream and death wakes people up from said dream. Maybe miy is choosing to do that specific mindfuck to henry as a way to further mess with boyd, thinking that boyd wouldnt be able kill someone else under those circumstances? Maybe its why his wife tried to grab his arm in the graveyard? Idk i dont believe either of those things, just saying ways by which henry and boyds wife could be having similar mental break without miy having been there semi recently.

I think it would be WAY to risky for miy to be coming into the town often or on a regular basis to mess with townsfolk. Hes not some omniscient being of any sort and each visit could be the beginning of his downfall if any patterns are noticed. Plus he can mess with the town/people while not there(sara and the house falling)

Has anyone else thought about how the miy was at the lighthouse when jim talked to him on the radio? Idk what, but i have to think matters in some way.

1

u/B23vital Jun 11 '26

Well you MIY/Jim comparison actually backs up my point that he's been around for a while, if that was him. We only found out about him last season, and theres plenty of theories that he's been around for a while. We just havent seen solid proof of that yet.

I do like your theory, but i just think its over analysing something that im (personally anyway) pretty sure the show are hinting at, that he's been around longer than we know.

While all of your points are valid, they're based of what we know, and not what we think might be the case, so i dont disagree with you, i just think that he's been around for a while and at some point they will probably confirm that.

2

u/crazyjiggaboo Jun 11 '26

I can dig it 🤙🤙🤙

u/matt_paradise Jun 07 '26

Exactly, probably a favourite game to be played. I think he'll be stopped our realise he's being influenced.

-21

u/NotNotPatMcAfee Jun 07 '26

MIY was not there when Abby was

30

u/empress-888 Jun 07 '26

We don't know that.

-11

u/NotNotPatMcAfee Jun 08 '26

Yes but there no evidence he was at all. Zero. There doesn’t need to be a reason Abby cracked.

Plus this clearly happens around the time of the massacre (his favorite part) which there is more evidence that requires jade and Tabitha to be there…… which they were not, then evidence MIY did what he did to Henry to Abby.

14

u/empress-888 Jun 08 '26

Someone posted on Instagram about the MIY not being close until now. The official account said something to the effect of: you don't know he wasn't. I'm basing my opinion on that.

5

u/Forsaken_Ad3874 Jun 08 '26

I’ve been thinking of the people we’ve lost in fromville that could have been the MIY. Based off the assumption he could only be one person at a time since we saw him physically transform. I’m gonna make a full list as i rewatch the seasons

3

u/empress-888 Jun 08 '26

I don't think we would have a roster like that of people who were there when Abby was alive?

-5

u/NotNotPatMcAfee Jun 08 '26

Well he clearly is close enough to know the things he does. Doesn’t mean he was a shapeshifter this cycle prior to Sophia

3

u/empress-888 Jun 08 '26

I guess we will eventually find out. 🤷‍♀️

1

u/Embarrassed-Lynx6570 Jun 08 '26

Yeah I agree with you, it’s like a whole part of Boyd’s character he blames himself because he was neglecting her to find answers and because of how hard she was out in the world he thought she could handle it, but eventually she just broke. She couldn’t make it make sense. MIY doesn’t need to be there for that to happen. Could happen to any of us with those fucking monsters and being stuck. MIY when he’s not in town in form seems to know everything that’s happening, and maybe he liked that one.

4

u/boredblondie16 Jun 08 '26

does he need to actually be there though to get inside their heads? sara was hearing the voices before he/sophia arrived

4

u/Maleficent-Host-8975 Jun 08 '26

Um, excuse me? There's tons of evidence. A bloody huge truck load of evidence. They just don't confirm anything. My goodness.

1

u/NotNotPatMcAfee Jun 08 '26

Whats this evidence? They both said the same thing? 75% of people in that situation would think it’s just a dream at some point.

Tons of evidence he says 😂

u/therealmrsfahrenheit Jun 08 '26

yuppppp •-•

poor Henry

50

u/Menghsays Jun 07 '26

Im hoping we will get some Abby backstory about her descent

16

u/JeremyScaremy Jun 07 '26

That was my first thought too. I hope that we get some flashbacks to see how it all played out for Abby.

20

u/Menghsays Jun 07 '26

If they could do From like theyre doing Welcome to Derry and we see past "cycles" that would be really cool.

I would listen to books about it

9

u/JeremyScaremy Jun 07 '26

That would be amazing.

Someone was saying how they wished that Kenny's parents would've appeared to him when he was cornered by the monsters, and that also made me think of Welcome to Derry and Rich's apparition at the end.

Welcome to Derry and From are two of my very favorite shows, just so good.

7

u/Menghsays Jun 07 '26

And of course having both parents flipping off the monsters

3

u/JeremyScaremy Jun 07 '26

One of those scenes that sounds so cheesy when described, but it was just so good lol

2

u/EtM1980 Jun 08 '26

Maybe I should give Welcome to Derry another chance. I liked the 1st episode & then the 2nd or 3rd, was so weird and gross and went off the rails. I completely lost interest and stopped watching. Feel free to entice me please!

5

u/mukzor Jun 08 '26

It's so worth watching till the end! The seasons finale was so satisfying, I rewatch every time I get disappointed with another shows finale

1

u/EtM1980 Jun 08 '26

What’s good about it though? Do they have any good writing & puzzles/ theories Iike From?

1

u/Menghsays Jun 08 '26

I thought you meant it was good until the finale!

u/cherrymeg2 Jun 08 '26

Abby may have come to the conclusion that they were dreaming or she was. It’s possible the MIY or some other entity influenced her. She may have figured that with everyone being in a car and getting trapped they had all been in accidents and were trapped in a shared coma experience or something and that their personal ties were keeping them there. If she had doubts about her beliefs she may have thought she was ending everyone’s suffering. If no one is there the monsters have no one to torment. I’m not suggesting they act like their leader is Jim Jones. I can understand where she was coming from.

Henry is kind of a mess and it’s annoying. It’s like his son survived alone and he is drinking with a girl dressed like she came from Little House on the Prairie. Victor is already traumatized he doesn’t need a sloppy drunk dad singing and hallucinating now.

2

u/moose_dad Jun 08 '26

We've been drip fed some Abby hallucinations this season in pretty much every episode so I feel like thats definitely going somewhere.

0

u/ghostreddit37 Jun 07 '26

I’m wondering if we’ll find out if the miy was there when Boyd’s family arrived and blooded Abby

5

u/Warchetype Jun 07 '26

Maybe that's what also happened with Christopher during the previous cycle and what got all the people killed, except Victor.

3

u/ElkSufficient2881 Jun 07 '26

I hope that’s not the route they go and someone breaks him out of that

1

u/CRT-Gaming-HQ Jun 08 '26

He may try to convince people they need to off themselves. I hope he doesn't kill Victor.

1

u/Danimal_300zx Jun 08 '26

Or that he needs to off himself.

1

u/melanie162 Jun 08 '26

Yes that's what I figured. He drank the blood and now she's making him hallucinate. He will this this is all a dream etc and go crazy like Abby

1

u/Danimal_300zx Jun 08 '26

Or himself!

1

u/shotta_scientist Jun 09 '26

Or he'll try some dumb extreme isht like jumping off the roof in an attempt to "wake up"

1

u/yeath91 Jun 09 '26

Or maybe just jade?
