    Another connection between Mike and OMC (more specifically lakes) might be the Fazbear Frights story Step Closer. A jerk older brother who is associated with Foxy goes fishing at a lake with his dad. He also almost loses his eye to a fishing hook as a “consequence” for bullying his brother and disturbing Foxy. Some more potential evidence!

    "You are won." is DEFINITELY a double entendre for 'You are one' before saying 'and YOU remain'. It feels like if the Princess is actually Golden Freddy, OMC might be saying how only one spirit remains in that body. (After the fire or Happiest Day? My mental timeline is borked.)

    • @happyclown4331
      @happyclown4331 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +17

      Man I'm loving the take on these lines. For me, I kind of see it as a potential mocking, but inevitable message ..."You are won" ( like by a prescence, or thing, or concept "owning you", and fighting over a type of 'prize)'. It's almost like there's something more behind the scenes, hinting at what is to come or currently occuring alongside the developing story/narrative. Like a fight has occured, yet you still are there, alive and aware (Player iin Princess Quest?), waiting for your next movement and action, almost as if to start a domino reaction, to "change the past" by understanding it and forming long lasting lessons, that allow horrors to co-exist as we find steps to help those and ourselves around us. By first, trudging through the depths and amalgamates that bind us together in the 'sinking crab bucket' that can be life.

    • @richardderatte6672
      @richardderatte6672 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      "You are one." may bear even more meaning though if it's being staid to Vanessa/Vanny as the princess rather than Golden Freddy/Cassidy. This could be hinting to Vanessa and Vanny becoming merged into one, rather than Vanny just being defeated as was generally assumed after the SB Princess Quest ending. That would also make the most sense given where and when the line is said, since the old man says it at the start of PQ4, which would naturally be a progression from the ending of PQ3, and since PQ4 ends with Vanny crushing Glitchtrap, another thematic continuation from PQ3. With the assertion of "You are won won(one)" in the place it's said, Steel Wool is essentially saying "Don't get it twisted, just because Vanny is in the ending of this game doesn't mean it's going to be the same Vanny pre-PQ ending, this is Vanny and Venessa as one whole now."

  • @morphstarchangeling8024
    @morphstarchangeling8024 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +390

    One thing I always believed with Old Man Consequences is that entering the lake is basically moving on. He says you can't go back once you go too deep because there's no back, you can choose to stay and rest forever or you can move on to the next world which is the afterlife. In FNAF world the drowned ending ends the game properly because you can move on while it crashes the game in ultimate custom night because the vengeful spirit refuses to move on from Afton.

    • @iabproductionsofficial
      @iabproductionsofficial 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      My interpretation was this. OMC is holding the fishing hook that's keeping afton in hell, OMC fishes Golden Freddy AKA (The one he should not have killed)Out of hell Briefly to give the advice of moving on, Golden Freddy refuses
      and when it enters the lake its returning back to hell to torture William

    The "Mike Consequences" pun is interesting, because I believe I discovered a similar instance. (I don't know if this has been brought somewhere else.) We have all thought that Emily is a weird last name, but I believe it is for a pun. Charlotte Emily, goes by Charlie in the books. Charlie can be short for Charlotte or Charles. Another nickname for Charles is Chuck.
    Charlie Emily -> Chuck E. ... Cheese.
    Edit: Just realized, the 3 Emily family members are Charlotte Emily (C. E.), Sammy Emily, (S. E.), and Henry Emily (H. E.). Their initials have the letters to spell C. H. E. E. S. E.

      @ShesNervous FR! The main reason I headcanoned it was because of the way I characterize Mike when I write him and it would give him an interesting relationship with the Venguful Spirit (no matter who it is aijsjsksksmdkdj) looking back, even the way the jaws look matches up with the foxy sprite, with a large upper jaw and shorter lower jaw (I’m pretty sure the actual model for foxy is the opposite, if only slightly, which is honestly kinda funny to me)

    I like the idea that is Mike in the Old Man Consequences. It would make sense because everyone can hear William Afton in the Minigame screaming for Mike to help him, giving us that hint in UCN, the whole time. And the story about Mike from the Fazbear's Fright trilogy talking a boy going fishing, chewing gum, has a little brother that is told to stay away from Foxy and other Animatronics.

    Also name would make sense in that regard too. Old Man Consequences. Like, consequences of what? Player going too deep into the code? And this character that was clearly not born from the program, just decided to stay in the area nosy players end up in to poke fun of them? Yeah, sure.
    But in Old Mike case that "consequences" part makes perfect sense - him being there is the consequence of his actions as a kid bully. His entire existence is the direct consequence of his actions. Therefore it makes sense to call his older self that - "I am an Old Man made by Consequences of my younger self actions"

      Really depends on when you think FnaF 3 and Pizza Sim take place. I personally subscribe to the theory that FnaF 3 is in 2015, so assuming Mike is at the youngest 13 or 14 in FnaF 4 minigames that would have him born somewhere between 1969 (nice) or 1970, which would make him ~18 in 1987 and ~46 in FnaF3.
      And if 2015 is true then it means that the earlier dates for Security Breach (such as 2029) are entirely viable, meaning that if Cassie's dad is indeed the Bonnie bully, and the Bonnie bully is the same age as Mike, then Cassie would need to be born in 2017 at the earliest, meaning that her dad would only have had to be 48 when she was born, which isn't all that weird

    personally i don't think it's anyone. these are good points, i like how connected everything is visually, but i think he's a representation. not any real person speaking through old man consequences, but just a character to say it's the end of the road. FNaF World was supposed to be the last game, tying the lore with the key to the FNaF 3 mini games and a final game for Scott to leave. Old Man Consequences was there to say, "This is it. No more FNaF." It isn't until you (the player/fredbear) drowns in a lake and falls forever in void and obscurity, and once you stop touching the keyboard, that it dies. And you see scott with his children, bonding in front of the TV. Same for UCN in my eyes. He's a character telling whoever fredbear is (whether it be Cassidy or FNaF) that it's the end. You die and it crashes. Finally the end of FNaF for Scott. That's my headcannon but i do really like the idea of it being Mike talking to Cassidy, all theories are valid tbh

      Same, I get that this series is all about connections between characters and all of that but it's very clear OMC whole lake is meant to be the end for whether it be spirits or as you said the franchise as a whole. The reason it IS the lake could be because of the people FNaF World and UCN are based around, aka cc and William Afton hence forth he show's up at the lake naer their house.

    The idea that mike is the vengeful spirit lines up with the idea that ucn is based off of mike's memories while at the locations as the security guard. who else would fend off the monsters like he does? of course he would want william to experience the things he experienced! He could also be omc, just as another part of himself. a part that wants to let go and move on to the afterlife. i also headcanon that mike is the kid from sit and survive, but that's neither here nor there.

    there is a theory proposed by Dual process theory that mike is the vengeful spirit, and at first it didn't make sense to me with what was said in this video, but afer some thinking it makes perfect sense.
    Vengeful spirit and William are the only two people in UCN, if mike is vengeful spirit then it makes sense that OMC is just his concience or something like that telling him to stop. In this way, OMC is not a seperate entity from vengeful spirit and William, instead its the part of Mike that understands that there is no use to endless anger. It's his moment of self reflection.

    Personally been thinking fnaf world shouldn't be ignored. Its not canon, but the ideas inside it are clearly ones that Scot was contemplating. I can absolutely see them using the glitching up and down as a very interesting explanation for what is happening in the newest saga. I find it odd that the Pizza Plex was shown being built INSIDE a game that fully acknowledged it was a game. If Cassy was trapped layers below in the AR, her father going in after her makes sense or vice versa. Glitching down into the game within a game within a game. The books suggest this is something on their minds, waking up from the VR world only to find out you never actually left.
    Im excited to see if they are headed this direction. I think it would be neat to see FNAF World be the key to the new era.
    Regardless, I'm along for the ride.

    This combined with Dual Process's theory makes so much more sense. Cassidy was always the vengeful spirit, just not in the way people perceived it. He wasn't just some random victim. He was Cassidy Afton. William's son. The son he forced into the very thing that he was afraid of, but the very thing that put him in the coma. William stuffed him in Fredbear and let him get spring locked. Which is what killed him. That sounds like a solid vengeful spirit to me.
    "Why?! Why have you done this to me?! You're my father! Why would you do this to me?!" (My personal context of how that would appear)
    It explains why Cassidy kept Afton alive in the Spring Bonny suit. "You put me in that thing and forced me to become what I am. Now it's my turn to do the same to you!"
    After all, when a person is in a coma, they can still hear things in the physical world. Cassidy was aware of EVERYTHING.
    This also neatly explains the Old Man Consequences scene. If that is Michal showing up as Foxy then he's saying "I've found you! Finally! I've found you! Sit by the lake for awhile. Stay with me. Let our father be tormented by the hell he created. You and I can stay here forever."
    This also explains the scene in the movie where Golden Freddy tells Michael that he can stay in the dream forever with his brother and family.
    Stuff is starting to make more sense now!

    If micheal is omc, then why is he in fnaf world? I suppose it depends on when that would take place. It would have to take place shortly before the happiest day minigame, which is probably after pizzeria sim, so i could buy mike having become omc by then.
    Although, if fnaf world doesn't take place at that point and instead is earlier in the timeline, i dont see how that could be him. Maybe it could be some kind of buried memory michael deep underneath everything else in cc's weird spirit memory realm, but if thats the case i feel like thats not how it would act.
    Personally, I'm leaning towards the PS->FNAF World->Happiest Day. Still food for thought though. But i figure this theory is pretty sound all and all

    2. Old man consequences is a creation of Henry Emily to help any spirits move on or find peace that are connected to fnaf world and ultimate custom night.
    3. Old man consequences is some kind of is some kind of guide for the living, the dead and digital.
    4. Old man consequences was someone who Cassidy was familiar with in life at some point.
    5. Old man consequences was someone perhaps William or Henry knew.

    I've actually thought that OMC was supposed to be Mike for years, I'm surprised to hear that Henry was believed to be it for a long time. I thought it just made sense from what OMC says to the Vengeful Spirit in UCN that he is Michael trying to convince the spirit to let everything rest. He's the one that's actually experienced the emotion the spirits give off and is familiar with a long-winded quest for revenge on William Afton. It took Henry's speech in FNAF6 to let Michael realize that his journey was over, and when he sees it trying to be prolonged he steps in like he always has to do the right thing, even for someone as evil as William.

  • @lyndye2027

    this is a very compelling theory but one thing that always stood out to me is that during the UCN easter egg, william is calling out to specifically Henry and Mike in the scene where the only other two present are OMC and the vengeful spirit. i feel like they easily could have just had william screaming in agony, vaguely screaming for help, or even showing regret as he is facing his deserved torment, but they specifically chose to make him scream to mike and henry. IMO, i could easily see mike being the one behind UCN, leaving Henry as OMC. It's only one piece of evidence i know, but it always felt important to me at least

  • @GendoRokabundi

    Even if the dirt mound isn’t the crying child’s unmarked grave, it could be related to Fallfest. Perhaps the ‘wound first inflicted on me’ wasn’t Charlie after all, but the absent Mrs Emily [or Mrs Afton]. Not only killed in the fire, but had her death covered up.
    Perhaps William convinced Henry that the death was an accident, and that it’s better if no one looks into it, for the sake of their new business and their children.
    I keep going back to the whole ‘the baby isn’t mine’ thing, and thinking there was maybe some kind of love triangle going on where William suspected or knew there was some affection between Henry and “Bellora”, where even though he married her, he secretly suspected that Micheal wasn’t his, feeding his resentment of both Henry and Mike.
    This would all have to be retroactive stuff built in to the whole fallfest story, which seems to be part of the Steel Wool ‘next generation’ era, so was probably not the intent at the time of fnaf6.

The theory of William experimenting on Crying Child with remnant is also a parallel to working on Dreadbear’s brain.

    Makes me think of my counter theory to the new "Michael Afton is the Vengeful Spirit" theory, which is that, if we want to pursue the idea that the Crying Child is Cassidy, what if CC is also the vengeful spirit and the vengeance is less about being killed by William and more about taking revenge for the fact that William Afton got Michael killed (changing the meaning of "the one you should not have killed,") as CC and Michael reconciled through the log book. This would then explain why Old Man Consequences is so set on getting the vengeful spirit to let go of that hate and anger and just let their father go. If you throw in the possibility of CC and Gregory being connected somehow, this would further explain why Michael would attach himself to Freddy since his biggest goal is helping his brother to finally move on.

    "Were done CC lets go fishing" is also kinda adorable in a way where they both together accept that it is over and lets just enjoy the somber rest. Aka "gone fishin"

  • @AlexMourning5635
    @AlexMourning5635 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I sent an email to RyeToast (in case you see my email on the podcast haha), but because of this theory I believe Henry is the Vengeful Spirit. In OMC's scene, you see a familiar Fredbear sprite, one that is used to put the pieces for Happiest Day in place in FNAF World. That same sprite speaks to OMC, appears in Henry's cutscene when they introduce Baby, and is considerably older in style. The rudimentary design makes me think it's supposed to represent someone older, or has been there since the beginning. Henry has more reason than the children to haunt Afton, he potentially caused Henry to be sent to jail for the missing children incident after hurting Charlie. That's slightly longer for hatred to fester in the living than a one-and-done child 'unalive'. In OMC's area, you hear Afton calling out to both Michael and Henry, and we know spirits can "sense" each other, at least in the books, so this makes me think those are the named characters we see on screen. OMC makes it sound like the Fredbear sprite is the one perpetrating the pain Afton is experiencing, telling him to "leave the demon to his demons", which uses very similar Hell-like language that Henry did in his speech. More importantly, it implies the "Devil" (Henry) has power over the "Demon" (Afton), and the Devil refuses to stop. If Michael is Old Man Consequences, that must mean the low-bit Fredbear sprite is Henry. Henry set up the happiest day, and he set up the fire that would gather all the spirits together. Michael did the sit-in-place dangerous job, Henry was in the background setting it all up. A lifetime of anger and agony, from prison or from outliving your own child due to someone you trusted sounds like a much stronger reason to keep someone in hell forever. It's clear something is keeping Afton in place, though in Henry's speech you hear "don't keep the devil waiting, old friend." That sounds highly personal, and if you learned there was no devil keeping him, why not become the devil you want him to experience. If it was my own child, they would be "the one you should not have killed" and I would absolutely exact as much revenge as I could on the man who hurt my baby.
    ***TW for Suicide.*** I think the drowning imagery isn't for the "One you should not have killed". I don't think it's that Afton went too far as we've speculated; I think once Pizzeria Simulator concluded, Henry drowned himself in his last act. We don't see someone forcing another into the water, in the events of water being used to hurt someone, it is one person acting deliberately. You as Fredbear have to walk and push yourself into OMC's pond in order to get to the next part in UCN and FNAF World, and it clearly takes some work. Whether that's survival instincts pushing you back, or the implication of going through with it yourself, I think it's pretty clear going into the pond is something we must CHOOSE to do.
    I also think it might be Henry because of who speaks to us in "the one you should not have killed"s voice. We only hear TOYSNHK's voice through the Mediocre Melodies, very specifically Henry's creations. Henry might be speaking on behalf of TOYSNHK, even disguising himself to make sure that's the one Afton is thinking of. And it clearly works, we see a faded face of a human child, and I interpret the image as being in Afton's mind's eye. It's faint, but it's familiar every time it shows up. A child, smiling, as though something won't let us forget their face. It also wraps up my issue with Henry just disappearing in Ultimate Custom Night, since he's been there - even in the background - for a while.
    Anyway, that's who I think is going after Afton in UCN, and my evidence, thank you and goodnight.

  • @MusiciansRule07

    First of all, I LOVE how you engage with the Community and build up not just Theorists at home but Theorists in general. When TH-camrs build each other up and prominent people in Fandoms do so too, it is so much better! It's more fun and it allows for more Nuance to be put in without a big explosion of nonsense first. Well, the nonsense persists but it stays contained to a few bad apples that can be ignored for the majority of the time. Thanks for that. Now, as for the video, I've always thought that OMC was Henry because what he wanted more than anything was for everyone William hurt to rest peacefully and to have the Afterlife that they deserve. William already ruined their Lives. He shouldn't get to ruin their Afterlife, too. Once he realized that Cassidy was doing UCN, at first, he was totally down for it because the more pain, the better for William Afton plus UCN is the sort of justice that everyone he killed and their loved ones deserved. HOWEVER, after a while, he realized that Cassidy was blinded by revenge and spite, delaying William's descent to The Darkest Pits of Hell (UCN is Purgatory in my eyes) and more importantly, adding to Cassidy's pain and ruining her Afterlife. Him manifesting as OMC is his way of saying: "STOP. THIS S.O.B DOESN'T DESERVE ANYMORE OF YOUR ENERGY. YOU DESERVE BETTER. LET GO AND I PROMISE THAT THE DEVIL WILL BE ABLE TO DO WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND MORE. YOU CAN BE WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND WATCH. YOU DON'T NEED TO DO THIS." Henry just wants not just Charlie but everyone to be Free. UCN is giving William another victory, even as he's ripped to shreds. Today's video has given me a new Theory to roll with because with a couple of details changed, the essay I just typed applies to Mike, too. He wants to atone for what he did to his little brother (Evan, to me...) and make sure that William Afton gets everything he deserves without harming anymore people. So, yeah, you and other Theorists have given me a new perspective. Either Henry or Michael can be OMC. It's cool. I'm happy with that.

In one of the stories in the books, William, who now was a part of the agony monster that was made of cables and animatronic parts in a mountain of scrap metal, was thrown into a lake where he got trapped, perhaps that lake is the one in old Man Consequences and Mike's spirit is in charge of watching him, in case he escapes

    Something I don't really get is why people assume Henry and William were the same age? (12:17, proposing Michael is likely a lot younger than Henry) Couldn't it be entirely possible Henry was younger? Like Charlotte (and possibly Sammy if we want to go there) was his first child, vs William who already had his third. Michael in 1983 (FNAF 4) is generally accepted to be 14 minimum 18 maximum; what if Henry was only a few years older? He could be 21, fresh out of college and with a new family, knowledgeable on newer technology and adventurous with his own. Henry has just always given me "young entrepreneur" vibes. It's a miniscule detail, but I've just always wondered about it.

    I love hearing all these fan theories. I also stumbled upon a fan theory on a wiki (can’t remember which one) that suggested that Michael also had an older brother who wore a foxy mask a lot. I don’t know much about that one. It did come to mind a few times now as you were talking. Regardless. It fits. Michael. Even if there is no older brother- Michael is encouraging the vengeful spirit to calm down. That William has been beat.
    I am convinced that Michael is the one from fnaf 4 that escaped through the window during the secret of the midnight motorist. We know the crying child is Evan from fnaf 4 his little brother (and is sharing golden Freddy with Cassidy who is the vengeful spirit). Like how the stitchedwraith is 2 spirits mirrored to golden Freddy.
    It would make sense that Michael would see his little brother and would want to be there with him.

    I've thought Michael was Old Man Consequences for a while now, because the games never say anything about Henry dying. OMC would have to be a spirit to talk to Cassidy. I always thought it made perfect sense the series' main character to be the one to tell Cassidy to leave William alone, after he was the one to finish the story. I also like the idea that Henry is the last person to survive at the end.

    It's interesting that the two gators we see, Old Man Concequences and Monty, happen to be complimentary colors. I wonder if that means anything. Complimentary colors can often suggest two sides of the same coin or two opposing forces. Imo the yellow fellow in the midnight motorist game represents Afton before going down the route he did, so maybe there's a connection here too where OMC is an opposite connection to Monty?

    I like this theory a lot tbh, fits very well !
    I don't know where to post them but I've had 2 ideas / mini theories in mind for a long time so I'll post them here real quick.
    1 : Chica's body type. While watching NotRealName's video on Chica, she mentions the fact that Chica swapped body type multiple time during the series, which is true of course. But I truly think there is something a bit deeper there. There are 2 sets of animatronics that we know the creator of. The Funtime (William) and the Rockstar (Henry). What I find interesting is that in those 2 sets of animatronics, Chica has a different body time, funtime is "sexy Chica", Rockstar is "bigger birb", a closer and exaggerated Chica from Fnaf 1. From what I saw in multiple timelines, Henry is believed to be the main creator of the band from Fnaf 1, giving us one more Big Birb as his Chica. In DualProcess Theory's timeline, if I recall correctly (and I don't know if most people agree on that) but William seems to be in charge at the time of Fnaf 2 ? If so, his Toy Chica would once again be a lean Chica. All of that just to mention that GLAMROCK Chica is a lean Chica. This may mean nothing, as in "She is like that because she's more attractive and will sell more", but it could also be a nod to the fact that the one in charge of Fazbear or creating the animatronics is close to William / Shares Williams view etc.
    2 : The box. I do not know what is in the box, it is much less a theory than a remark, but what I find interesting is that, in the screen with the box, the sentence "Perhaps some things are best left forgotten, for now." has never been attributed to any character that I know of. Many seem to assume that this is Scott litteraly talking to us. But why ? He never did talk directly to us in any game before or after that. IMO this sentence is pronounced by a character, reflecting on the box and its content and, even though the box is probably not relevant anymore, solving which character is saying that sentence could solve the content in turn.
    Hope what I said is somewhat true, in this series, it's quite impossible to land on the truth anyways

    I had the idea of Mike being OMC after watching MatPat react to Dual Process Theory's video, tho I was like "nah, someone with more experience in lore would probably find something that negates that..."
    Although I wasn't the one who sent the e-mail, and I never said anything about it to anyone, I feel cool about having the thought of it on my own. Plus, it's cool to see that people got the same thought at some point

    Another thing thats important is the waterfall lake in the cave of ruin is actually red if you look at it, so maybe a hint to the OMC Red lake idk
