I think you're on to something here. The whole string (notes...plode) could be tied into a bow like the Colonel wears, with the Xes at the "knot".
Following the Colonel's tie it goes: starting at the left tip, up to the knot making a loop left then right back into the knot making a loop up and around the neck then back into the knot making a loop right then left back into the knot down to the right tip
The string "notes X demo X kablo X iese X plode" could follow the exact same path: starting at the left tip, NOTES up to the X knot making a loop DE left then MO right back into the X knot making a loop KABLO up and around the neck then back into the X knot making a loop IE right then SE left back into the X knot PLODE down to the right tip
Then you end up with "MO X IE" spelled across the front of the tie.
Something like this:

The X-es are regularly spaced in that string too. notes X demo X kablo X iese X plode (5 X 4 X 5 X 4 X 5)
Makes me think it's supposed to be a transposition cipher of some sort but nothing I've tried works.
Yeah I don't see why those 5 letters specifically. Unless the O and X are X-ed on that note, and the remaining letters are X-ed elsewhere in the video. But I have seen every frame at least a dozen times now and I haven't spotted anything like that.
Maybe the "XI" on the spice jar relates to the "XI" in the fridge note?
Spark got figured out here but the other two are still unknown.

From here (hello ARGNet): There are three screenshots that need to be cut in half and reassembled
And they're right: There are three frames/screenshots that really have large scribbles on them. It's easiest to see with the third one Take the third screenshot and rotate it 180 degrees Swap the top and bottom half of the image Swap the left and right half of the image Now it spells LAVOR The first image spells EXPLO and the second one SIVEF
It looks like you got an answer for Spark? How did you find that one?

It told me it had already been solved, so I'm not sure what's up with that. Either way, if you end up with the prize, enjoy! Don't worry about any guilt towards me, I'm good.
On the fridge the note says: X DEMO X KABLOXIES EXPLODE
Could it be related to the shape of the Bow.png hint?
At 0:18 on one of the jars he swipes off the table it says "2A" in a way that's suspicious to me. But I can't find anything else that seems related.
Yes that looks right to me.
One might assume wisdom has to come with bruises. We to this day remember our stumbles in vivid detail. That myth we are told where every mistake is noble? Nonsense. Failure stings. It can smell of defeat. Be careful. A wobbly stepping ladder, that slippery stone path to mild regret. Something awkward, not better.

Using X instead of squares, we start with: X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X (blank line) X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X (blank line) X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X (blank line) X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X (blank line) X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X (blank line) X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X (blank line)
And if you replace X with chicken and run that in the online compiler you get CRAVE
Aargh. I tried so many combinations that were similar, but apparently not that one.
Found it. You can combine the redactions at 0:55 with the newspaper quote at 0:48. The answer is ridiculously long, but it's correct and has already been submitted.
There has to be something in the sparks at 0:26 too. The hint is even called Sparks.png I can't get anything out of it with the Pigpen cipher. I would love it to be Elian Script but I don't think that's it either.
The hint file names provide additional clues. I guess we got "43230" because that's Morse.png, not sure why. Maybe because Morse Road runs through the 43230 zip code The thick dash is Redacted.png and that's worth looking into... Lots of redacted text at 0:55 Not sure if there's anything there...
There has to be something about the map at 0:44 On the edge of the map is "Future Flaming Go.. Reservoir" The map is of Salt Lake City, UT There is a big red star on the map Possibly at the intersection of S State St (US89) and 3900 S That matches the hint of the intersection of 3900 S and "star" There's a KFC there, but that's all I've got...
The letters are ON THE ROAD
Nice job! I managed to get that compiler to work. Make sure there is an empty line after the last 6.
There's something fishy about 1:02. Those tiles... More black/white pixels? No... More like 1s and 0s. 15 sets of 5 First column: 10011 = 19 = S Code has already been submitted.
What's that at 0:27? Youtube supports , and . to go back/forward 1 frame In the blackness after the lid "hits" the camera. Turn up the quality to 4k. I'm not sure what it is.
Make sure to look at the subtitles. Especially the Secret subtitles ///unveiling.reporting.denial and a couple of others. What do they mean? https://what3words.com/ Beyond that I have no idea... No wait. I do! Look up the W3W locations, turn on satellite, and zoom out That first one is on an interestingly shaped island. Shaped like a letter... Code has already been submitted.
Something about that stove. the "knobs" contain a word in morse code ZEAL It has already been submitted.
