things we’ve learned about fromville from this ep:
marielle was probably right about the souls of the deceased or whatever being trapped in fromville. from what we saw of poor roger he was clearly partially conscious until he fully lost his mind, so i don’t think this bodes well for anyone who believes that if you die in fromville you’re still alive on the outside
there seem to be separate power systems with the supernatural beings in town. worm-blood can (temporarily) kill the night monsters and the talismans can keep them out, but the “scarecrows” from the settlement do nothing to them. whereas the talisman did nothing against reanimated roger, but like the dolls, the “scarecrow” was the only thing that took him down.
this possibly implies that sophia staring at the figure of the ballerina in the storage room indicates a… not antagonistic necessarily but probably not mutually beneficial relationship with whatever the martin/music box/cicada entity is. at the very least i think we can assume that they’re not one and the same
on that note hopefully sophia has a weakness because her ability to bring the recently deceased back to life and directly influence the perception of people who she poisons with her blood is… scary, lol. but it doesn’t seem like she wants the town to go to the tunnels, so perhaps what they’ll find there will harm her.
my current hypothesis is that all beings in fromville have different powers and “rules” but they draw all of their abilities from the same source, which involves the sacrifice of the children. if our gang fucks with that, they won’t like it
if you give birth to an entity and have a supernatural connection to it, that door goes both ways! my blood is your blood bitch you will not monster out and kill my adoptive brother in law friend! hopefully a breakthrough moment for fatima’s agency and recovery after the trauma of smiley pregnancy and birth. unfortunately i am still worried because now that smiley knows she’s able to control him there will be an even bigger target on her back. put that golem to work girl they’re gonna be after you!
things we still don’t know:
what the fuck sophia wants people’s teeth for and if it is at all possible to stop her
why boyd keeps seeing abby
what those jim and khatri apparitions really are
what that ghost was in the matthews’ kitchen
if donna is like. Actually ok or just living on borrowed time
what the golem is actually capable of
what will happen with henry
if julie can actually change the past
if there’s actually anything in the tunnels that can help people or if a bunch of people are just going to die in vain and this is where boyd loses the town and everything
