 What did I say in my last game theory reaction? I said that we were going to be getting the game theory four step closer very soon. And it just so happens to be today. Also if you missed that reaction to the science of FNAF, it's linked in the description. So once again with a brand new Fazbear Fright book now out comes a brand spanking new game theory on it. And just like all the past game theories on Fazbear Fright, I haven't read it. I'm just way behind at this point. There's no way I'm catching up. I'm sorry. I don't know a whole lot about this book again because I have not read it yet, but I have heard a lot of good things about it. But hopefully I can still enjoy it with all of these spoilers. I am now throwing my way. Also today is August 1st and in exactly one week it is FNAF's sixth anniversary. There's gonna be a lot of stuff happening that day. We're probably gonna get a teaser or a trailer for the upcoming game. Darko is releasing his new song, but the main attraction is that I will be hosting a celebration live stream as we do every single year. So if you don't wanna miss that, I suggest that you subscribe. We are so gosh dang close to 6,000 subscribers. It would be great to hit it before FNAF's sixth anniversary. See what I did there? 6K, sixth anniversary. It's pretty nice. All right, so let's finally hop into this game theory. So this is called Game Theory FNAF Another Mystery Solved and based off of the title and the thumbnail, I'm guessing we have finally learned the identity of the older brother in FNAF 4. So I am very excited about that. Let's hop right into it. Let's all smash the like at the same time. Three, two, one, go, go, go, go, go. All right, here we go. Game Theory FNAF Another Mystery Solved. Let's find out about that older brother. But first off, we got a showtime to attend. Is this Foxy's Cove? Is this Pirate's Cove? Probably based off of the stores? Uh-oh. I don't know if I would press that. I have a sneaking suspicion. So Foxy wants to turn me into a pirate. Okay, what a pleasant story. I'm losing an eye on an old one. Welcome to Game Theory. So that is without exaggeration, thinking of reaching out to Scott Cawthon so that we can jointly buy Chuck E. Cheese's quickly dying restaurant franchise. So we can transfer them into what they were always meant to be real world FNAF experiences. Heck, they've already done pizza taking care of. We could probably even sell the idea to YouTube originals and make a whole series of things. Not a bad idea. And turn the pizza reels into horror themed dining experiences. But it'd also help mitigate the cost of doing all that. No joking here, Scott. This is something we absolutely can't. Flip my pizza we have. That'd make a great Netflix show. You've created your games before in real life. Game lab. And they seem to be pretty well received. So between my theater background and your go-boy, your gobs of money and master mining of the IP, I think we can make something that's not cool. And yeah, the reason I'm bringing it up here is so fans can start talking about the idea both here and out of the world. So we're all excited they are for this to happen. Anyway, let me just leave it at that. I've talked about it before, and I'm kind of split on it. Who knows? You've probably already bought it at this point. You're just waiting to reveal that back to the world. God, could you imagine? Oh, Chuck E. Cheese restaurants. The grand pappy of FNAF. I actually have a theory in the works about those pizza right. I talked about this on Twitter. Food theory. A few weeks on my newest theory channel, Food Theory, which, if you haven't checked out yet, it's actually kind of fun. I'm not going to lie. Yes, it sounds like a joke. It's actually kind of funny. I've got episodes about Chuck E. Cheese on the way, but also horror episodes like how the ghost of GFC's Colonel Sanders has been cursing people for decades. I'm sorry. Who? The real thing that we are curing. The curse of Colonel. It's the same science, math, and over research that we do over here, except, you know, on real life topics. And for anyone who's hesitant to check out if you want to see that Chuck E. Cheese food theory reaction, subscribe. Who said he started out skeptical, but watched the episodes and immediately got caught. Honestly, that is my reaction, too. We've got over half a million subscribers in the first 24 hours, and we're getting really close to that million in these first two weeks, so please, please, please, help us reach that milestone in record time. Show the world how passionate we theorists are by shadowing our subscriber record. And hey, FNAF even already has made an appearance on the show. It's in every single intro of food theory. So subscribe to Food Theory today to get your daily dose of brain food. Honestly, exotic butters FNAF food theory? I think that'd be a cool idea. FNAF's new channel has really helped us all out. So thank you guys for your support. Thank you for your subscription. And I can't wait to deliver you more. It's been a lot of work, but it's really fun. All right. I think it's been making it for, like, two or three years. Here we go. It's the latest Fazbear Fright Book. It's like, you break me? No bookmark. The store forgettable name. The stories inside of it are epic. Not just because they're some of the most gruesome in the series. The page one literally starts with a dream sequence where a kid's eye gets popped by Foxy's hook. But because of the lore drops that are happening in this thing. Oh, god. Are we about to get massive spoilers? I know this point. The Fazbear Frights books have given us interesting concepts to chew on. Flushing out the world of FNAF and giving us new insights into events that we already had a pretty good handle on. It's been useful, certainly. But nothing too earth-shattering. Animatronics can have people stuffed inside of them. Confirmed power of the one. People can have animatronics stuffed inside of them. Confirmed in book three. Everything is powered by human agony. The missing children's incident probably happened in 1985. Animatronics can steal identities. No. As they do. Of course, we're reasonable. Multiple souls trapped inside of them. Because why wouldn't they? They're animatronic prisons to lure more people to. Makes sense. There has been a lot. Cheasons. All of these stories, hence why I've been covering these books so much. But step closer. Yeah, it covers all of them. Because lingering questions still in existence from these games. The ones presented to us by the two most frustrating games in the franchise, FNAF 6. Let's go. FNAF 6. Questions that are still hotly debated by the FNAF community. So today, we're looking at the first of those debates. The ones related to FNAF. Oh, I'm so excited. What those answers mean for the rest of the series. Today, we confirm the identity of this guy. I called it. Older brother, Foxy, bro. Get to the meat of this theory. Let's quickly speed up. I'm honestly so excited. Important story of this new trio. The middle one titled Dance with. In it, we cover Casey. Isn't it about Laura? Coming from a tragic childhood. She lives on the street picking pockets and nabbing purses. One day, she robs a mother and a young girl outside of Circus Baby's Pizza World, which we're told has itself a big red door. Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo. Potentially important detail alert. Big red door is a big red alert. She sees a hologram of Ballora spinning in the distance. Oh, that's creepy. Weirded out by this, she has other people try the glasses on and no one else manages to see Ballora. From that point onward, each time she puts on the glasses, the hologram gets closer and closer, which begins to freak her out to the point of her leaving town and trying to put her life back together in hopes that it gets not a bad idea. I doubt it does, though. She eventually decides to return the stolen items to the mother and the daughter, hoping that it'll make amends to family and welcomes her in and forgives her. But when the little girl Isabella puts the glasses on, she not only sees Ballora, but she immediately begins dancing. It's a very vague ending because it's unclear whether Ballora, who was one step away from getting Casey, instead nabs the girl because she's the one who puts the glasses on next and the dancing is the girl becoming possessed, or if it's the girl just excited to be dancing alongside one of her favorite characters, Ballora. Anyway, there's not a whole lot to talk about with this one. The technology is super strange. The heck is going on? Dude, that is honestly so creepy. We need another science video, Austin. Doesn't miss it. Any details? Oh my god, of course. It's Scott, man. I figured out to my knowledge, holographic or invisible animatronics haven't really been a thing yet in the franchise, so we'll just have to cross that bridge when it becomes important. And last but not damn it, it might be a phantom animatronic. No. Oh. Oh. The real world, do they? Last point to be made about the story, though, is it's recurring theme of mothers? Is he not going to talk about the phantoms then? OK. Is there trouble relationship with a mom? Maybe a theory for another time. How her life ended up the way it did. Casey throughout the story is also visited by an older woman at a bus station that gives her grandmotherly advice. She's saved from the police by another elderly woman. She makes amends with that mother and daughter that have a relationship that she envies. I mean, it could be me thinking too much about this, big surprise, but it doesn't feel like a coincidence that Bellora is the main animatronic featured in a story about motherly relationships. I had a theory, oh, I remember a lot of people like there's no way. Not in any sort of creepy way. Get your mind out of the gutters. I mean that she represents the wife that William Afton lost or divorced him or most likely that he abandoned in the aftermath of his daughter getting clawed to death by baby. I mean, just look at the song that Bellora sings in sister location. Hide inside your walls Such a creepy song. In my home All I see is an empty room No more joy and empty tomb An empty tomb God, so creepy. This is bringing back memories of that theory, damn. Oh Joe, hey bud. Actually no, that was the magician, I'm sorry. He shuts out the rest of the world, hiding behind his walls and obsessing over his work to try and bring her back. And so when William does this in the games, his wife is left alone and probably ends up leaving him. As such as some sort of coping mechanism, William recreates her in animatronic form depicting her with perpetually shut eyes because to William, she was blind to what needed to be done to rebuild the family blind to the fact that his work was over She wanted to move on to do frivolous things like saying and spin and dance or at least that's how he felt from his perspective. William Afton was mired in his own misery of loss. Getting real nostalgic right here boys. But I thought the connection between Bellora and mothers in this story was particularly interesting and worth calling out. Interesting. Is it a closer? I'm ready. Pete? Tough. Not a good idea. Pete fires up the machine and Chuck runs away, leaving Pete alone to get seemingly hypnotized by Foxy's performance. Not again. No! No! Okay. No! No! What the freak have these books become? Come to the realization that Pete needs to face down Foxy to break some curse. Pete rushes to Freddy's but in his panic he's hit by an oncoming truck and killed out of nowhere. It's this awful, awful reveal that you absolutely do not see coming because you feel so bad for this kid. You're like, oh, he's apologized to his brother. They have a good relationship. They have a plan for getting Pete out of this after him being brutalized for the better part. Damn Scott, the hell are you writing? Pete is still alive. Of course he is. We pick up back in the hospital where Pete's soul is trapped inside of his own dead body. Pete is an organ donor. Against his will, I might add. Thanks a lot for signing me up for that one, mom. Thanks, man. Wow. Pete is forced to helplessly watch as his body is... That's not an organ, though. Wait, hold on. This story is shocking. Yes. Yes. Let's go! Let's go! Yes! I feel so weird to have that done after so long. It's just like it seems William and Mrs. Afton are... Mrs. Afton? Purple guy! Oh, I shouldn't do that. I should be dead. But I'm not. It's me, Michael. Yes! You got more evidence, man? Gum. Oh! I remember that from the logbook. He chews on gum. Let's go! Watermelon gum. Okay, that's fine. That's a wonderful thing to deal. But later, on the way to the butcher shop, we're told that he, quote, hops a wad of watermelon gum into his mouth. On the boat fishing with his dad, he wishes he had brought his... My man loves gum. It is mentioned a lot in this short story. Enough that it sparked my fear-senses and made me flag it. That'd be funny though. Gum. That'd be silly. But that's not the only place that... Let me direct your attention back to the FNAF... Let's go! Who knew that a book with dabbing Chica as an ad-selling feature would become the single... Hey, I did that in 2020. For those of you who don't remember this little gem, it's the logbook originally owned by Mike as we see on the title page that helped us dissolve for Cassidy's name that's going to now reveal to us Michael Afton. Scott is such a genius, right? Page 49, quote, list 10 bad habits you'd like to break. Number one, chewing gum excessively. Excessively. Pete, choose gum excessively. Michael Afton, choose gum excessively. Pete, eventually turns purple and comes back to life after being dead. Michael Afton, eventually turns purple and comes to life after being dead. Pete is an older brother who scares his younger sister using foxy. Foxy Bro in FNAF 4 is an older brother who scares his younger sibling with foxy. Pete equals Michael and Michael equals FNAF 4. Yes! Five years! This detail has been sitting in the logbook for years. Just waiting to be used. Kind of impressive. Well done there, Scott. Well done. God hand it to him. The thing we need to know about Michael's motivation for the rest of the game series. He's avenging his brother's death, and he made happen. When Golden Freddy appearances are accompanied by the words, it's me, it is literally the younger brother saying, it's me, I'm here to his older brother. But of course, of course, of course, it is never that easy. No. Don't you do this to me. Don't you do this to me. Don't you do this to me. Don't you do this to me. Don't you do this to me. Don't you do this to me. No, boy. Poor guy. There are questions that got us to throw the Foxy Michael connection away so many years ago. Why would the spirit in this book Cassidy be telling Mike things that are very clearly true of the crying child? Scott. What are you doing, man? Okay. But I crossed it out. Oh no. He's going to put it in a pot too. Was that the Bible? Maybe. Hmm. I can't believe that this is just some sort of typo or something. This book is so precisely engineered to be the linchpin in too many mysteries of this franchise for that to be the case. So could that connection with the two brothers be the reason why Michael's name might somehow be different? All theories for another day, my friends, but at least for now. Oh boy. Ha, he said the thing! Step closer. Next time we tackle Susie and her connections to FNAF 6. Oh, I forgot he was talking about FNAF 6. Definitely. If I remember, I'll link it. I know that you guys can help us do it. Again, check your cheese theory coming soon. Holy. I'm having a blast with it. Like I said, if you're into videos about scary restaurants and pizza, well, we've got episodes coming out about both. Let's go! I love sandwiches. Epic. True, true. White pizza! Of course, I'm still here, so, you know, stick around for a little bit longer, please. Now, after five long, long years, we finally know the identity of Foxy Bro. With a little bit of, you know, exceptions, but basically I'd like to think that this is what Scott is trying to say. Of course, again, there are those tiny little details that don't match up, but I am really, really fascinated to know where Matt is going to take this. I don't think he'll probably include it in the next video where he will cover Susie and the Pizzeria Simulator, but maybe he will. I don't know, but he does need some time to think about it as he says. How fitting is it that not too long ago we were celebrating FNAF 4's five-year anniversary, and now here we are today knowing one of the main characters' identity. One of the main characters of the entire franchise, Michael Afton. It's insane. You know, I remember all those past theories and it really brought back nostalgia. You know, watching this theory and finally getting an answer to that question. It's really nice. Again, there are a few more questions that need answered, but you know, it's FNAF. It's always going to be like that, but this is a huge weight off of our shoulders and Matt is such an amazing guy for putting all of this together. Again, for the past nearly six years, coming up in six years, he's been here solving the lore like an absolute mad person, probably driving him into madness. Joke, fully intended. Is that game coming out? Anyways, I just want to say, Matt, you're great and thank you for everything you've done for this community for the past nearly six years. You are insane. I doubt that he's going to see this, but you know what? Whatever. Thank you guys so much for being here and again, subscribe, so not only do you not miss the upcoming reactions to food theory about checker cheese, also the game theory for Suzy and FNAF 6, but also the epic FNAF 6 year anniversary live stream that I will be hosting on August 8th, exactly one week from today. Also, this channel's third year anniversary is coming up on August 15th, so we will also be having a celebration for that. Again, thanks for watching and I'll see you all on the flipside. Goodbye!
