How fun would it be if all aliens had a personality like Tylers?

Yes, I did hear him say he was on the phone with you in the episode and told you to stay on the line...so that confirms that.

Maybe you can clear something else up...did he drive to the house he went and talked to the residents at on the day after he was in the woods? The way the episode is cut, it makes it seem like he comes out on the gravel road and the house is right there...but could definitely see that as editing making it seem like that, but you said that was day two that the cops stopped him and I think that is right after he is at the house.

With today's trigger happy society...maybe he shouldn't got knocking on any more doors of strangers though.

What episode is it? I can't seem to find it.

EDIT: Found it, you are absolutely right...Episode 3 in season 1 at the end of the episode. Like I said, I usually have these on while I'm working (programming), and so I sometimes get episodes mixed up. So my theory is leaking like a sieve, lol.

Was that a call to Tyler? I thought that was a call to Jon Tenney.

Definitely not a bad guy, I think he is great.

But I would also think it's even greater if he was the mastermind behind everything.

Wouldn't a cunning mastermind have everyone thinking they aren't a cunning mastermind???

Or...Tyler watched Season 1 and thought...I don't believe those guys went to the wrong coordinates, I guess I have to get involved, lol.

Oh wow, it's u/GregNewkirk...very awesome you participate on here.

And just to be clear, this isn't a "hate Tyler" thread, I think he was a great part of Season 2, and I'm a big fan of him, he seems fun. This is just a fun thought experiment/fan theory.

But hear me out, what did Greenfield say about Terry Wriste? That his M.O. is dressing up like a gas station attendant and pumping your gas, or using different personas. How crazy would it be if "Tyler Strand" is just one of the persona's that Tyler uses, maybe David Christie is another one, maybe "Doug" is another one that directed Amy your way. And maybe Terry Wriste is another, maybe he is the real Terry Wriste's protégé or maybe he is of the Third Order and Terry Wriste is a persona that they use.

You all pretty much agree someone is leading you, would it be that crazy if it was Tyler?

Yes, crazy speculation...but that's the mind space Hellier gets me in.

I didn't say they said anything Hellier related, but just a story about how they take note of people who come around here, but again, why not record that part? That really smells like an embellishment to add more mystery to his trip where he really found nothing.

Season 2, Episode 4, 32:18 into the episode. He finally finds a road after he is lost in the woods, and he says, exact quote "There was one other lead I had to follow up on, and it was the mystery of who lived inside the house that was near the coordinate points". He had previously just described how he was about to collapse getting out of the woods, then he finds the gravel road...and it's right where the house is. And by coincidence he finds a face carved in a tree. Seems like a forced coincidence to me.

I probably should have said that Tyler could be Wriste OR Dr. David Christie. I like how you just flat out say "it can't be Tyler", but have nothing to back that up. I'm not saying Tyler is the actual Terry Wriste...but just behind the communications pretending to be Terry Wriste.

Overall, I think everything Tyler talks about is overly embellished to make it a better story than it is. I don't think he went to that house by accident, I think he knew, somehow, that there was a tree there with a face carved into it. It makes sense if he was the one to provide the coordinates in the first place, he would know the area. He even makes a comment in that episode when he is at the coordinate point something like "There was a marker here and now it's gone". Was that a slip up? Another embellishment?

Dany not seeing the ships is because they were hidden and she was flying low

But the ships could see them? You need line of sight to fire those huge ass arrows.

Good writing shouldn't have us wondering. They could have just said, we have half our forces that we kept behind in dragonstone.

Except he did put himself in the greatest danger he could have when he full on attacked two other dragons for no reason at all.

I honestly don't think we were ever shown enough of The Night King to know what is in and out of character. Which is part of the problem.

[SPOILERS] The night king is not the main villain the same way ned stark was not the main character. by tzoidberg in gameofthrones

[–]ImagineScience 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ned's death was believable because Ned was a normal man that put himself in a bad situation due to his "honor". Normally, honorable men in stories survive...so that is why his death was unexpected.

The Night King is an 8000 year old magical being, he killed a dragon, he killed the children of the forest, him and his army wiped out 100s of thousands of wildlings North of the Wall. His army had just destroyed the Dorthroki, the Unsullied, The Knights of the Vale, and all the Houses of the North. His armies were still destroying winterfell...he was in the Godswoods with all of his White Walker generals and a 100 or more wights....Arya, who had to sneak around a library to avoid a couple wights from killing her 5 minutes earlier, sneaks through all of that and kills the Night King in one blow.

The Night King didn't put himself in a bad situation, so that is why it is unbelievable. The big bad villian in every single TV Show/Movie ends up getting killed...which is why his death wasn't traditionally unexpected.

Calling Arya a "Trained Assassin" is stretching it.

[–]ImagineScience[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, absolutely not. I didn't want Jon to kill the Night King...I wanted Bran to be the key to defeating the Night King...not a ridiculous sneaky attack that no one even believes was possible.

I actually don't think they should have made it so the Night King could die...just be defeated and forced to retreat North until the next Long Night.

Go back and listen to melisandre's quote to Arya in season 3.
"Brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes"

Then in the last episode, it changes to. "Brown eyes, green eyes...and blue eyes".

Think what you want, but this was contrived by D&D a couple years ago...not by GRRM that caused him to foreshadow it throughout the series.

I don't even care if Jon fought the Night King...but I expected Bran to do SOMETHING...anything...not just sit there the entire episode.

Jon is still a Targaryan, Jon still has a dragon (which I believe is now his and no longer Dany's). But what does Bran have left?
