This episode is so emotional! No one quite knows the real story between Tony and Jeffrey. Jeffrey says he only met Tony once, took him home like the other victims. But some of Tony’s friends say different, that they knew each other at least a year, and Tony’s mom remembered him mentioning a Jeff. We’ll never really know.
Jeff was known for being so honest about everything but if he lied about Tony it makes me wonder what else he lied about. He probably did kill people in the army and that child that was found aswell,... I wonder what his motive would be to lie about a few things but admit the rest.
I almost wonder if he couldn’t face up to the emotional connection with Tony and psychologically couldn’t admit it. I was listening to a podcast, and they theorized that he may have thought of Tony as the ideal partner because of his disability, which is obviously twisted and disgusting. How Jeff liked the idea of a partner that couldn’t express themselves or participate traditionally. It’s horrifying to contemplate and has bothered me since I heard it.
@@d-1381 why would you believe a man who did these things to be honest? It was reported that he drugged and raped men while in the army, yet he was honorably discharged. An honest man wouldn't have blamed beer. An honest man wouldn't have been drugging people in the first place. I doubt that the true death toll was 17, I think it's only 17 he spoke of.
Dahmer really did call a couple of the families with that taunt telling them to stop looking. The sister he calls in this episode turns out to later be the woman who cried outrage at him at his trial, and tried to lunge for him.
The whole episode my friend and I kept saying "Just live happy with Tony. This is your one chance at a normal life." But we all know what happens at the end
i lost it completely on this episode, tony was such a sweet soul he didn’t deserve any of it . makes me wonder what would’ve happened if he never went back to get his keys :(
I don’t think Jeffery Dahmer ever admitted to having a relationship with Tony, but I like that they went that route with this episode because it really shines light on the victim’s side and it made me feel even more sympathetic with the victims than I did before
@@btw.brandonnn4678 Oh wow that’s very interesting, especially since Jeffery Dahmer was very forthcoming with everything he had done and his life so it’s interesting that he never mentioned that
@@raptoria48 in my opinion he lied about it because he couldn’t come to terms with the connection he had with tony and wanted to suppress the emotions or something but even though he was very truthful who know what else he could have lied about or “left out”
@@btw.brandonnn4678 That’s viable, maybe he felt some sort of regret and surpressed it because he had formed a connection/relationship with Tony that could’ve worked but ultimately he ruined it
Tony Hughes family and friends say they heard mentions of a "Jeff" from Tony over the course of about a year before he went missing and of course we know now got murdered by Dahmer so I think they were friends IRL but the romantic relationship never happened between them most likely.
I forgot what show I was watching when the episode started, I was like "Wait, Dahmer was white, is this one of the victims, did I accidently click another show" and fell in love with Tony Hughes and his story and then, the bar scene happened where Dahmer is eye fucking Tony and my brain clicked like... OH FUCK.. Crazy how in 30 minutes they made you care so much for a person that was real and affected by this monster...
I feel guilty for loving this series and these reactions, but it is really well done. You guys are great and I am glad that I have found you....albeit through Dahmer.
@@catnipkitty it sounds like a flip comment because I’m complimenting his appearance? In Real Life Anthony Hughes would have made an exceptional model. The actor playing as him highlighted those aspects. Reading to deeply.
The police really fumbled and dropped the ball way too much in regards to Jeffery… Wisconsin should be ashamed of itself for hiring such horrible police officers… my heart goes out to the victims
Yeah then giving them an award for doing such a good job during the cases.. Like wtf. If that was actually true...jesus.i know that the two officers actually let Jeff go but damn to be rewarded for it???
That’s systemic racism for sure they both were reinstated and given all kinds of awards…. I’m in Chicago and Milwaukee is just an hour away I remember the Jeffery Dahmer case like it was yesterday I’ll never forget it especially since 2 out of his 17 victims were from Chicago…. This guy got away with way too much and the police and Judges constantly dropped the ball …. Don’t ever find yourself feeling sorry for Jeff he came from a upper middle class family and also raped his army bunk mate over 10 times and a fellow medic he worked with …and to be honest I’m pretty sure his grandmother knew more than what is depicted in the Netflix series… Milwaukee police are a joke for allowing this monstrosity to go on for as long as it did
This episode has me screaming at the show, crying. Just imagine having to deal with the struggles tony went through, and then getting brutally murdered by Jeffery Dahmer.
I’m not sure if they shared a love or this was just meant to humanize the characters because they’ve just gone through the other stories focused mainly on him. For me I think it’s just a reminder that these were people who had lives and ones that loved them and not just parts of a gruesome story. An incredibly sad and upsetting one for me.
The thing is, Jeffery didn’t really have any reason to lie about his story…he came clean about literally everything he did all the way down to the cannibalism, so the nuances of him maybe not wanting to hurt Tony and being conflicted are honestly probably true.
I get the idea that he didn't want Tony to come home at that point because he knew he couldn't help but kill him and he really didn't want to, I feel like it's the only death that really affected him and ended it. making him fall into the deepest hole yet
I get irritated about people saying he didn't have a reason to lie or mix lies with his confessions but the truth of the matter is his stories sometimes contradicted himself. To YOU he didn't have a reason to lie but to HIM he does. He was literally the only witness and there's no other witnesses to contradict anything he said so people just accept 100% of what he said. He did sometimes lie and only he knew why he wanted to keep certain secrets to HIMSELF. Even with his first murder, according to news reports, the new homeowners of his old house called in to say they had found human bones on the property and it AFTER THAT, Dahmer confessed to have killed someone on that property. There were also pictures found documenting most of his victims so if made if hard to lie when there was actual evidence. So he wasn't this guy who was willing to spill his guts because he had been caught.
I love that you two had to take a moment. 😭 I think we all did after that one 💔 just horrible to watch and have hope even though it’s reality, all said and done. He just had pure evil inside, unchecked. Love your channel! 🤘🏼
Jeffrey and Tony actually knew each other for about a year. You can look it up. So after a year you wonder why cuz Jeffrey really liked him maybe loved him in his own way
That wasnt’t different acting it was very consistent with him being triggered to murder and being conflicted by the compulsion it happened with the hitchhiker before and Tracy in episode 1.
And to think all of the stuff that happens afterwards is all because of one person. It really speaks volumes of how serial killers have an effect on not only the families of the victims but society as well.
SPOILER ALERT COMMENT- This one broke me. I’m morbidly excited to see what you guys think of episode 10. I was absolutely sobbing from the moment Scarver walked out of the bathroom. Not out of empathy for Jeff although that was hard to watch.. but seeing them flash through the victims while Scarver does what he does just overwhelmed me. The way they filmed it.. the audio choices.. what Scarver says.. it was one of the most powerful scenes I’ve ever watched in a series.
@@BrenaMagdalena I was wondering about that. If that was accurate that the guard walked out and knew what Scarver was going to do. Did Scarver claim that’s what happened?
Thanks so much for the reactions! I was always looking for a reaction channel ever since the series released, and I’ve been so attached to y’all’s reaction… ❤❤
7:38 they definitely should teach sign language in schools!! Should be a requirement for like every year in elementary and probably even middle school if they wanted to continue
I don't know how most people feel about this but I think Dahmer had genuine feelings for Tony, maybe possibly was even starting to fall in love. At first, Tony being deaf I think only intrigues Dahmer, but later on as they spend time together and have that conversation at the restaurant/bakery, it becomes clear Dahmer develops a connection that he most likely never felt with anyone else before. Like he finally met someone who knew what rejection and being an outsider felt like. It's a tragedy his sickness took complete control and made him believe he had no choice but to kill an innocent man who had dreams and was just looking for love.
I think ur right but I think he had a deep fear of abandonment. Like everybody he did love pushed him away from the start. But yes I think he did like Tony. But his sickness told him other wise.
@@sofiaiannantuono634 I agree I think it was his deep rooted abandonment issues that lead to him killing Tony in the end and I think his feelings for Tony were genuine
Dahmer = Monster, for sure. Thankfully this series is shining light on the impact of his crimes and the injustice system that enabled him. Enjoying the reactions. 🫡
Whilst watching your previous reactions to the Dahmer series, I knew how you'd feel about this episode. Tony is such a lovely sweet young man and his family is wonderful. Sadly, you know from the get-go that he's going to be another victim. (You mention at the beginning of the video that you intend to watch the Dahmer tapes after the series is over, that is my plan too).
Dahmer called Tony “deaf and dumb” when you listen to the actual real life trial, when the detective talks about the confession. So having feelings for him? Cared for him? No. He wasn’t capable. This was highly dramatized and shown in a way that’s meant to draw a reaction of “they had a relationship”, they didn’t. That’s added into the show. It’s right there in the fact that he called him “deaf and dumb” oh, and that he gained his trust and murdered then brutalized his body. People need to stop trying to humanize serial killers. He was a depraved individual who felt no remorse for what he did. Sympathize for the families that had to wake up every day after they found out their son or brother was brutally murdered and had to try to carry on.
Whom he really like is Tony Sears.. he said if it would have been love it would be Sears. It was on the Dahmer tapes. He just called Tony Hughes as the deaf mute guy. Netflix kinda mixed that up. Sears was nt even mentioned on this..
Yes I agree with you, that episode was much more emotional for me than this one, don't get me wrong this one was also hard to watch but I don't know I knew(like we all) unfortunately in which direction this episode is going and that's why I wasn't so much shocked at the end but still sad and angry.
This is like the saddest kill cause I feel like Jeff really did start liking tony cause tony was showing him what he wanted and needed in life attention and affection it’s like they were basically courting each other but when you think about it it’s sad to say but tony dying was bound to happen since jeff had abandonment issues if he acted like that for work imagine if he had to leave to visit his family for days or something his impulses would get worse each time he let tony come and go without doing anything cause the connection with them would just get stronger. So it was bound to happen it just happened sooner than later which is still terrible. And idk if you caught it but when he killed the 14 year old boy when the boy woke up and was still high when jeff had the contacts in when the boy got up he tripped over something before Jeffery caught him what he tripped over was tony body that jeff kept on the side of the bed cause I guess he wasn’t ready to “let tony go”. And it’s sad cause usually jeff drugs his victims and then strangle them to death so they wouldn’t “suffer” but with tony it happened so unplanned and out of nowhere that when you think about it you realize tony got beat to death with a hammer without the drugs so he felt everything jeff did before he died and since he was mute deaf he probably was yelling and crying but nothing came out it’s so terrible tony was probably confused as hell cause he actually did like jeff so imagine getting beat to death by someone you like and possibly wanted to love in life
@Paige Peterson, Dahmer stated he drugged and strangled Tony, like he typically did. A lot of the things in this episode do not match up - not sure if the show had some additional source of info not covered elsewhere or if they were just dramatizing/fiction.
@@Du808-o8k That makes no sense. He had ample opportunity to drug and kill him when they were playing the board game so that doesn't match at all (if we go by the events shown on the series). Also please remember that this is a dramatization Jeff is not here anymore te tell us if this show is accurate in his point of view. We just don't know. You can't take this show as a factual play by play of what happened. We can't even be sure if Jeff was completely honest about Tony and everyone else.
@@NothingIsWrongToday He wasn’t completely honest about Tony when he was alive. He said he killed him the first night they met but Tony’s family and friends state otherwise. This is not towards you but people think that Jeffrey confessing to everything he did means he was 100% honest but he wasn’t.
As a deaf person, this whole situation is nightmare fuel: your disability being someone else's upper hand. I read a comment that one theory Dahmer could have liked Tony is because his disability fed into Dahmer's need for a partner who could be 'dependent' on him, and it makes me feel sick. Honestly, I've met people who would say how "hot" it would be for me to be completely disabled (without a Hearing Aid) in certain 'bedroom' situations and it always made me uncomfortable that my disability was a specific trait they desired. Despite whether he knew Dahmer for a whole year or just one day, Tony and everyone else didn't deserve what happened.
My God that is so disturbing, can't believe they are such sick people out there. I've never even met a deaf person irl but if I had someone I would definitely learn signing! Hope you meet less awful people ppl
I couldn't watch episode six in one sitting. I watched funny and cute cat videos in between to 'dilute' the emotions and remind myself that the world is not such a terrible place. To all the victims none of them deserved to die in Dahmer's hands. He really was a lost soul.
In was in this episode that I felt sorry for Jeffrey, he couldn't live a normal life even if he wanted too. Something just isn't wired properly and can't be fixed like a broken leg ect. Enjoy that the show focuses on the victims and in a respectful manner as much as they can be to do them justice in truth, the whole thing is sad but well directed and well acted. Enjoying your channel, keep up the great work guys 👍
He had borderline personality disorder which makes you feel like everyone will abandon you so he felt like the only way to get people to stay was by killing them and keeping their remains
Feel sorry for the victim!! He doesn’t care about anybody but himself. We can feel sorry for the mental illness of personality disorder but we shouldn’t feel sorry for Jeffery!! Many people been through worse and have his disorder and they don’t murder people who trusted them. I can’t imagine watching this whole episode and thinking about Jeffery and not the victim. Also this show dramatizes the parts with Jeffery. The don’t know his specific movements or feelings. All his interviews are pretty broad. So the only thing we all know for sure is that at the end of the day Jeffery killed Tony Hughes. That’s what’s important and Tony is the only REAL victim of this episode.
@@Kiiieeechiii I have borderline personality disorder. You’re casting a wide net with one mental health disorder that hundreds of people struggle with and associating that that is why he couldn’t function in society. We don’t spend constant hours fearing we’ll be left or abandoned. We feel rejection and loss and the thought of being alone like everyone else. The humanizing of these serial killers is getting tedious. I have BPD. I don’t murder people. We are not the same, it’s just the same mental health issue but his is functioning in a mind that is seriously depraved. I get VERY tired of the constant references to mental health being the reason why serial killers kill, no, it’s not. It’s a factor but not a reason.
I just can’t watch this. Dahmer was so disturbed and CRAZY!!!!!! The actress playing his mother was in the movie Lean on Me with Morgan Freeman. She was one of the students at the school where Freeman was principal Clark. I have not seen her in anything for years but her voice is the same.
Don’t believe everything the MSM & government tells you. This whole story has been debunked. There is a very detailed fully sourced dossier available detailing the truth online. Look it up on popular platforms. ‘The Dahmer Case - A Critical Analysis’. There was only ever 1 true indictment. The system is corrupt af & we know that.
This was the episode that broke me. When it was done, I turned off my tv and cried like a baby. I had to take a break from binging it, I didn't think I could finish. I eventually finished, but this really did a number on me
This episode was amazing & emotional! You can see that Jeff is trying to not commit the murder on Tony.. Because I think he knew he was a 'good friend/lover' te him in some ways! And they had a bond. But at the end he could not resist it to do it when Tony came back to get his keys... Such so sad!
Lets pretend this was 100% accurate to reality. Jeffrey always complained about being abandoned but he wasted all the chances he had when someone was trying to stay. His grandma who was nice to him and provided a healthy environment, Tony. He was really sick and hopeless.

------------ new subscriber to your channel -------- glad to see you're not homophobic or racist in watching this, as I have seen those reactions elsewhere. This episode, I found to be especially saddening - they made it seem like Dahmer actually liked this guy, but he killed him anyway.
I think it was more about the people’s status. Both him and victims. Where they lived. He lived inner city. He was gay. Things were MUCH different in 1991. Being gay was to be kept secret. Even in 1998 we had to hide if we were gay or bi women or men. Look at Samuel Little. He got away for 40 years. A black man. He had a similar instance with being pulled over with a dead woman in his car. And was let go because he said it was his wife and she was drunk. He was even arrested for a murder but the jury found him not guilty. And he went on to kill. Killed 93 women. Drew all of their portraits form memory. Got life in prison and lived to 80 years old. So bakc in the 90’s it was the gay issue. For Little, it was that he went for workers who weren’t likely to be reported missing for awhile if at all
I have extreme PTSD & my empathy in general for ppl is extremely low almost at a psychopathic level but I have to say that I do have a huge amount of empathy for Veterans , Disabled people & Children!!!!! This episode actually made me feel human again & I actually got tore up watching this !!!!!
The family was apparantly very upset that Netflix romanticized their interaction as a relationship... Dahmer apparently stated that he killed Tony the same night he met him.
Tony’s family and friends have said that they were actually friends and knew each other for about a year. I don’t know if their relationship was romantic or not, but I don’t think it was since I really don’t think Dahmer was capable of loving someone.
A lot of people said they didn't like this show because it glamorized Dahmer and was disrespectful to his victims. I don't think those people actually watched it, especially not this episode! I know that the show creators didn't consult with the victim's families beforehand, and I can understand how that could have made them angry. I also know the whole series, but this episode in particular, is mostly fictionalized. Tony was a real victim and he was deaf, but that's where the accuracies end. Whether he went out with Jeffrey once or a few times (no one really knows), I don't think they were sitting around playing board games together. But this episode did such a great job of humanizing the victims and the families and making you realize what a monster (appropriate title) Dahmer really was. You walk away from this SOBBING for the lives that were lost and the loved ones they left behind, and hating Jeffrey. IDK how you can call that "disrespectful" to the victims. I've watched a lot of documentaries, TV shows, and films about serial killers, and they usually try to humanize the victims as much as they can ("She liked dancing and playing with her dogs"), but I've never seen it done as well as it was in this episode. This broke my heart and it actually made me feel guilty because I'll watch a doc about John Wayne Gacy and not shed a tear. But I bet if you focused in on one victim, who they were as a person, their relationship with their family, etc., I would probably break down.

Rip Tony Hughes
This episode has me screaming at the show, crying. Just imagine having to deal with the struggles tony went through, and then getting brutally murdered by Jeffery Dahmer.
I’m not sure if they shared a love or this was just meant to humanize the characters because they’ve just gone through the other stories focused mainly on him. For me I think it’s just a reminder that these were people who had lives and ones that loved them and not just parts of a gruesome story. An incredibly sad and upsetting one for me.
Exactly
Find you a man like Tony, may he rest in eternal peace, gorgeous both inside and out, poor darling x
The thing is, Jeffery didn’t really have any reason to lie about his story…he came clean about literally everything he did all the way down to the cannibalism, so the nuances of him maybe not wanting to hurt Tony and being conflicted are honestly probably true.
You also have to remember Jeff didn't want to admit he was a homosexual so I can see him not admitting to having "loving" emotions toward another guy.
I get the idea that he didn't want Tony to come home at that point because he knew he couldn't help but kill him and he really didn't want to, I feel like it's the only death that really affected him and ended it. making him fall into the deepest hole yet

I've seen all these episodes, and this one is the one that really got me. Seeing Tony's mother crying, it broke my heart.
And to think all of the stuff that happens afterwards is all because of one person. It really speaks volumes of how serial killers have an effect on not only the families of the victims but society as well.
Ive been patiently waiting for this video haha 😎 💪 sending tons of good vibes from Winnipeg!!!
RIP Tony, and all the victims. This was very hard to watch. I'm glad that it took a crazy guy to end this evil guy.
SPOILER ALERT COMMENT- This one broke me. I’m morbidly excited to see what you guys think of episode 10. I was absolutely sobbing from the moment Scarver walked out of the bathroom. Not out of empathy for Jeff although that was hard to watch.. but seeing them flash through the victims while Scarver does what he does just overwhelmed me. The way they filmed it.. the audio choices.. what Scarver says.. it was one of the most powerful scenes I’ve ever watched in a series.
Hello spoileeer… this is episode 6 right here
@@Vale9118 oh I’m really sorry I didn’t even think about the people who haven’t seen the whole thing. I’ll edit with a spoiler alert
There has to be a poetic justice that he was killed by a weight bar, the same way he attacked his first victim Steven Hicks
@@lotushali almost makes you wonder if Scarver and the guards conspired like Scarver testified but the guards denied.
@@BrenaMagdalena I was wondering about that. If that was accurate that the guard walked out and knew what Scarver was going to do. Did Scarver claim that’s what happened?
Netflix’s should donate money to the victims of the family’s
I agreed
If they truly cared they could have launched a foundation for the victims and link it on their page for everyone who watched it.
Those damn keys !!😭😭💔💔
Thanks so much for the reactions! I was always looking for a reaction channel ever since the series released, and I’ve been so attached to y’all’s reaction… ❤❤
I think the show is amazing but it's very hard to watch, but at the same time I couldn't look away
Same here
In the episode with the 14 year old u see tonys body on the side of the bed on the floor when the boy was trying to leave at first after being drugged
& also his head is in the refrigerator when Jeffrey opens his fridge when Tracy is over and Tony's is on the floor when the cops arrive
If Jeffrey Dahmer doesn't meet the requirements for insanity, then I'd hate like hell to run into the guy that does.
-John Wayne Gacy
This made me want to cry so bad 😭😢 WHY COULDN’T HE JUST LET HIM GO
7:38 they definitely should teach sign language in schools!! Should be a requirement for like every year in elementary and probably even middle school if they wanted to continue
I don't know how most people feel about this but I think Dahmer had genuine feelings for Tony, maybe possibly was even starting to fall in love. At first, Tony being deaf I think only intrigues Dahmer, but later on as they spend time together and have that conversation at the restaurant/bakery, it becomes clear Dahmer develops a connection that he most likely never felt with anyone else before. Like he finally met someone who knew what rejection and being an outsider felt like. It's a tragedy his sickness took complete control and made him believe he had no choice but to kill an innocent man who had dreams and was just looking for love.
Hon.....Jeff was soulless. No love is ever coming from that monster.
@@falconeshield I know 😔 I guess maybe he wanted to love but just couldn't? Idk
I think ur right but I think he had a deep fear of abandonment. Like everybody he did love pushed him away from the start. But yes I think he did like Tony. But his sickness told him other wise.
@@sofiaiannantuono634 I agree I think it was his deep rooted abandonment issues that lead to him killing Tony in the end and I think his feelings for Tony were genuine
@@falconeshield Nonsense.
Dahmer = Monster, for sure.
Thankfully this series is shining light on the impact of his crimes and the injustice system that enabled him.
Enjoying the reactions. 🫡
this is the one i have been waiting for 🍿🍿
Whilst watching your previous reactions to the Dahmer series, I knew how you'd feel about this episode. Tony is such a lovely sweet young man and his family is wonderful. Sadly, you know from the get-go that he's going to be another victim.
(You mention at the beginning of the video that you intend to watch the Dahmer tapes after the series is over, that is my plan too).
Dahmer called Tony “deaf and dumb” when you listen to the actual real life trial, when the detective talks about the confession. So having feelings for him? Cared for him? No. He wasn’t capable. This was highly dramatized and shown in a way that’s meant to draw a reaction of “they had a relationship”, they didn’t. That’s added into the show. It’s right there in the fact that he called him “deaf and dumb” oh, and that he gained his trust and murdered then brutalized his body. People need to stop trying to humanize serial killers. He was a depraved individual who felt no remorse for what he did. Sympathize for the families that had to wake up every day after they found out their son or brother was brutally murdered and had to try to carry on.
Not to defend Dahmer but, dumb was used as a way to say someone lacked the ability to talk. There used to be schools for the deaf dumb and blind. IJS
This episode is highly manipulative and everyone is falling for it. So dumb. lol
Whom he really like is Tony Sears.. he said if it would have been love it would be Sears. It was on the Dahmer tapes. He just called Tony Hughes as the deaf mute guy. Netflix kinda mixed that up. Sears was nt even mentioned on this..
I was thinking while I was watching the show please just get away wait outside for the key but Tony was so trusting it killed him.
Guys, prepare yourselves, the episode with the impact statements is a rough one, its pretty much a 1 to 1 of the actual trial impact statement footage
Yes I agree with you, that episode was much more emotional for me than this one, don't get me wrong this one was also hard to watch but I don't know I knew(like we all) unfortunately in which direction this episode is going and that's why I wasn't so much shocked at the end but still sad and angry.
A scary serial killer story + a love story= it is nuts!
This is like the saddest kill cause I feel like Jeff really did start liking tony cause tony was showing him what he wanted and needed in life attention and affection it’s like they were basically courting each other but when you think about it it’s sad to say but tony dying was bound to happen since jeff had abandonment issues if he acted like that for work imagine if he had to leave to visit his family for days or something his impulses would get worse each time he let tony come and go without doing anything cause the connection with them would just get stronger. So it was bound to happen it just happened sooner than later which is still terrible. And idk if you caught it but when he killed the 14 year old boy when the boy woke up and was still high when jeff had the contacts in when the boy got up he tripped over something before Jeffery caught him what he tripped over was tony body that jeff kept on the side of the bed cause I guess he wasn’t ready to “let tony go”. And it’s sad cause usually jeff drugs his victims and then strangle them to death so they wouldn’t “suffer” but with tony it happened so unplanned and out of nowhere that when you think about it you realize tony got beat to death with a hammer without the drugs so he felt everything jeff did before he died and since he was mute deaf he probably was yelling and crying but nothing came out it’s so terrible tony was probably confused as hell cause he actually did like jeff so imagine getting beat to death by someone you like and possibly wanted to love in life
@Paige Peterson, Dahmer stated he drugged and strangled Tony, like he typically did. A lot of the things in this episode do not match up - not sure if the show had some additional source of info not covered elsewhere or if they were just dramatizing/fiction.
I don’t think he didn’t like tony he was trapping tony so he can find right timing too kill him…
@@jessicatylenda7248 this show isn't 100% accurate
@@Du808-o8k That makes no sense. He had ample opportunity to drug and kill him when they were playing the board game so that doesn't match at all (if we go by the events shown on the series). Also please remember that this is a dramatization Jeff is not here anymore te tell us if this show is accurate in his point of view. We just don't know. You can't take this show as a factual play by play of what happened. We can't even be sure if Jeff was completely honest about Tony and everyone else.
@@NothingIsWrongToday He wasn’t completely honest about Tony when he was alive. He said he killed him the first night they met but Tony’s family and friends state otherwise.
This is not towards you but people think that Jeffrey confessing to everything he did means he was 100% honest but he wasn’t.
Episode 8 will make you cry as well 😢
5:39 Codys face had me dying 😂😂😂
This episode broke us all 😭😭
This one really was masterfully done fading the sound in and out really made you feel as if your TONY poor sweet soul! Jeff you ass!
Silence made me cry so bad
I’m crying all over again 😭🥺
As a deaf person, this whole situation is nightmare fuel: your disability being someone else's upper hand. I read a comment that one theory Dahmer could have liked Tony is because his disability fed into Dahmer's need for a partner who could be 'dependent' on him, and it makes me feel sick.
Honestly, I've met people who would say how "hot" it would be for me to be completely disabled (without a Hearing Aid) in certain 'bedroom' situations and it always made me uncomfortable that my disability was a specific trait they desired.
Despite whether he knew Dahmer for a whole year or just one day, Tony and everyone else didn't deserve what happened.
My God that is so disturbing, can't believe they are such sick people out there. I've never even met a deaf person irl but if I had someone I would definitely learn signing! Hope you meet less awful people ppl
Thank you for reacting to this series, I can't afford Netflix and this is the only way I can watch this series.
Tony such nice guy 😥😢
Bridget" Thank you for the new subscribers!!"
Me : thats me lol
I couldn't watch episode six in one sitting. I watched funny and cute cat videos in between to 'dilute' the emotions and remind myself that the world is not such a terrible place. To all the victims none of them deserved to die in Dahmer's hands. He really was a lost soul.
In was in this episode that I felt sorry for Jeffrey, he couldn't live a normal life even if he wanted too.
Something just isn't wired properly and can't be fixed like a broken leg ect.
Enjoy that the show focuses on the victims and in a respectful manner as much as they can be to do them justice in truth, the whole thing is sad but well directed and well acted.
Enjoying your channel, keep up the great work guys 👍
He had borderline personality disorder which makes you feel like everyone will abandon you so he felt like the only way to get people to stay was by killing them and keeping their remains
Feel sorry for the victim!! He doesn’t care about anybody but himself. We can feel sorry for the mental illness of personality disorder but we shouldn’t feel sorry for Jeffery!! Many people been through worse and have his disorder and they don’t murder people who trusted them. I can’t imagine watching this whole episode and thinking about Jeffery and not the victim. Also this show dramatizes the parts with Jeffery. The don’t know his specific movements or feelings. All his interviews are pretty broad. So the only thing we all know for sure is that at the end of the day Jeffery killed Tony Hughes. That’s what’s important and Tony is the only REAL victim of this episode.
@@Kiiieeechiii I have borderline personality disorder. You’re casting a wide net with one mental health disorder that hundreds of people struggle with and associating that that is why he couldn’t function in society. We don’t spend constant hours fearing we’ll be left or abandoned. We feel rejection and loss and the thought of being alone like everyone else. The humanizing of these serial killers is getting tedious. I have BPD. I don’t murder people. We are not the same, it’s just the same mental health issue but his is functioning in a mind that is seriously depraved. I get VERY tired of the constant references to mental health being the reason why serial killers kill, no, it’s not. It’s a factor but not a reason.
Hello this Brandon who also I’m dead so yeah it hard to watch but they did a good job sign language for this show. Hope u hit over 1000 subscriber
By the way I live Wausau Wisconsin pace out
I just can’t watch this. Dahmer was so disturbed and CRAZY!!!!!! The actress playing his mother was in the movie Lean on Me with Morgan Freeman. She was one of the students at the school where Freeman was principal Clark. I have not seen her in anything for years but her voice is the same.
I don't feel bad Bridget- I cried too after this episode.
I was hoping Tony would help Jeff be normal but Jeff just f that up
The family’s are APPALLED this movie came out!
Brings it up all over again. ❤
Don’t believe everything the MSM & government tells you. This whole story has been debunked. There is a very detailed fully sourced dossier available detailing the truth online. Look it up on popular platforms. ‘The Dahmer Case - A Critical Analysis’. There was only ever 1 true indictment. The system is corrupt af & we know that.
This was the hardest one to watch for me.
This was the episode that broke me. When it was done, I turned off my tv and cried like a baby. I had to take a break from binging it, I didn't think I could finish. I eventually finished, but this really did a number on me
This episode was amazing & emotional!
You can see that Jeff is trying to not commit the murder on Tony.. Because I think he knew he was a 'good friend/lover' te him in some ways! And they had a bond. But at the end he could not resist it to do it when Tony came back to get his keys... Such so sad!
Lets pretend this was 100% accurate to reality. Jeffrey always complained about being abandoned but he wasted all the chances he had when someone was trying to stay. His grandma who was nice to him and provided a healthy environment, Tony.
He was really sick and hopeless.
this episode was so tough, tony stuck out so much and i wanted to cry so bad. rest in piece

You guys are awesome man
This episode was brutal
love the reactions! I finished the series the other day your in for a emotional ride. btw Cody sounds like fightingcowboy he's a TH-cam gamer ahaha
This one really messed me up. The best episode in the series in my opinion.
This episode is 100% fictional, Jeffrey never had a relationship with Tony Hughes.
I am a hearing specialist and it is true that there are Otto toxic drugs that can effect hearing. Chemo, blood thinners, diabetic medications and some strong antibiotics.
Oh man. Just heartbreaking and horrific. Tony - what a sweetheart. 💔 😭
5:15 the demon arrived
------------ new subscriber to your channel -------- glad to see you're not homophobic or racist in watching this, as I have seen those reactions elsewhere.
This episode, I found to be especially saddening - they made it seem like Dahmer actually liked this guy, but he killed him anyway.
3:05 what's the background song? From the series?
this episode destroyed me, but it’s definitely the most memorable just by the story and the future Tony could’ve had…
We all warned you ! 💔
Jeffrey didn't have to kill him.
New to your channel!!! Love your reactions
I think it was more about the people’s status. Both him and victims. Where they lived. He lived inner city. He was gay. Things were MUCH different in 1991. Being gay was to be kept secret. Even in 1998 we had to hide if we were gay or bi women or men.
Look at Samuel Little. He got away for 40 years. A black man. He had a similar instance with being pulled over with a dead woman in his car. And was let go because he said it was his wife and she was drunk. He was even arrested for a murder but the jury found him not guilty. And he went on to kill. Killed 93 women. Drew all of their portraits form memory. Got life in prison and lived to 80 years old. So bakc in the 90’s it was the gay issue. For Little, it was that he went for workers who weren’t likely to be reported missing for awhile if at all
I have extreme PTSD & my empathy in general for ppl is extremely low almost at a psychopathic level but I have to say that I do have a huge amount of empathy for Veterans , Disabled people & Children!!!!! This episode actually made me feel human again & I actually got tore up watching this !!!!!
This episode broke me...
Awwww bridge is soo sad, gon make me cry
The family was apparantly very upset that Netflix romanticized their interaction as a relationship... Dahmer apparently stated that he killed Tony the same night he met him.
Tony’s family and friends have said that they were actually friends and knew each other for about a year. I don’t know if their relationship was romantic or not, but I don’t think it was since I really don’t think Dahmer was capable of loving someone.
Tough episode to get through :(
i really loved episode 6 only because it made me forget that Jeff was a killer. the show does a good job with perspective
I cry this entire episode
A lot of people said they didn't like this show because it glamorized Dahmer and was disrespectful to his victims. I don't think those people actually watched it, especially not this episode!
I know that the show creators didn't consult with the victim's families beforehand, and I can understand how that could have made them angry. I also know the whole series, but this episode in particular, is mostly fictionalized. Tony was a real victim and he was deaf, but that's where the accuracies end. Whether he went out with Jeffrey once or a few times (no one really knows), I don't think they were sitting around playing board games together.
But this episode did such a great job of humanizing the victims and the families and making you realize what a monster (appropriate title) Dahmer really was. You walk away from this SOBBING for the lives that were lost and the loved ones they left behind, and hating Jeffrey. IDK how you can call that "disrespectful" to the victims. I've watched a lot of documentaries, TV shows, and films about serial killers, and they usually try to humanize the victims as much as they can ("She liked dancing and playing with her dogs"), but I've never seen it done as well as it was in this episode. This broke my heart and it actually made me feel guilty because I'll watch a doc about John Wayne Gacy and not shed a tear. But I bet if you focused in on one victim, who they were as a person, their relationship with their family, etc., I would probably break down.
