Okay but if Tom was in the hat but at the time he was in London and London is in England, but England is apart of the United Kingdom, so does that mean that Great Britain was in the hat⁉️👀
And does this also mean that there are two diff versions of the UK where in the white hat the same holds true except Northern Ireland is no longer apart of the UK and British Rule🧐
So I drew this at 2 AM for "The Hat Theory" video-
I had a totally different Thumbnail in mind, but tbh, this one is WAY better!
The most fun part about this theory is that it's literally all canon until like, the last 2 games mentioned! And THOSE are the real theory!
Video Spoilers below!
I remade the Timeline, and I love it so much, because it makes so many more Theories and ideas and it's just so cool, and I love it so much and I cannot wait to talk about it more, because it's just WAY better!
OLD Timeline -
We know this timeline, it's the one everything has somewhat agreed is correct-
THE NEW TIMELINE!!! >:D
NOTHING IS CONFIRMED FOR THIS NEW TIMELINE AND THATS SO COOL!
The Triforce Timeline and the Wild (Working title) Timeline!
Does Zelda have the Blood of the Goddess? NOT A CLUE!
Is Ganondorf the incarnation of Demise's Hatred?? NOT A CLUE!
Is Demise even here??? HE HASN'T BEEN MENTIONED YET!
Is the Hero's Spirit Here!?!?!?!? NOT A CLUE!
Origins of the Master Sword????? NOT A CLUE!
WTF IS UP WITH THE MASTER SWORD STEALING HEALTH!? Not a DAMN Clue-
The Triforce may not even be called the Triforce anymore.
=-=-=
Nintendo can now mess with the Lore and Explore new stories without messing up the ones we loved so much now :D
Honestly the old one made me sad, because I loved the story lines that were going on, the Rise and Fall of Hyrule in the Downfall Timeline, the ever encroaching darkness through peace in the Child Timeline, and the great adventure awaiting the Adult Timeline. But the Timeline merge actually stops those timelines/adventures immediately!
I want to see Hyrule come back from destruction in the Downfall Timeline. I want to see an Era of Light after the Era's of Twilight and Shadow, showing that their hero's actually did something. I want to see what this new Kingdom of Hyrule could become one day! But that all stops when the merge happened.
Also Echoes doesn't work where it is, I tried to mess with it after some time, to see if it'll fit, but it doesn't make since! HOW DID THE ROYAL FAMILY LOSE THE TRIFORCE!?!?!?!?! HOW DID THEY FORGET!? IT WAS LITERALLY IN THEIR HOUSE!
It could work after Zelda 2, IF our Hero of Hyrule wished for the Triforce to be forgotten- Like that would be really good actually-
Rewatching Who Killed Markiplier a while back, I realized that the hats may just be the key to solving the order of events of the infamous party scene in Chapter 1.
Wait, come back, I’m (somewhat) serious!
The party scene has always been kind of weird and confusing, right? Part of that is because, in between when we first take a drink and when the scene ends with a concerned Damien leaning over us before we flop down on a bed at 1:30 AM, the scenes we see are all out of order. We get cuts of the poker game intermixed with people laughing, Damien doing a keg stand, the chef in the kitchen, beer pong, and shots of Abe coming closer and closer to us until he finally knocks our character out for whatever reason. Mark’s gone into all the symbolism in this scene over in his explanation stream for the series, but forget symbolism, let’s talk about hats.
One of the first images we see after a shot of the poker table is of Abe, laughing and pointing at someone else. And he’s wearing...scarves? And what looks like a flower in the back there?
Whatever it is, it’s what we see him wearing before he decks us, and it is clearly different from what we see him wearing in the brief shot we have of him talking with Damien when we first walk in. Then, he’s seen wearing his normal deerstalker hat. (He’s also wearing his tan coat there, but it doesn’t show up at all in any of the party images, so it doesn’t help us much.)
But in some of the scenes he’s still wearing the deerstalker. Specifically, in a couple of the poker shots the detective can be seen wearing his hat underneath the tied scarves.
(Sorry for the blurry pictures. Getting screenshots for any of these scenes is HARD.)
But in another shot of the poker game, we can clearly see that Abe’s hat is gone. And I think it’s that progression, from hat to hat with scarves to only scarves, that gives a sense of when certain scenes are taking place.
In one of the few party scenes where Abe is wearing only his hat, he and the Colonel are sitting at the bar, where the butler, Benjamin, is holding up his hands and clearly shaking his head no as the Colonel holds out his flask towards him.
Immediately afterwards, the Colonel takes a swing at Benjamin but misses. The flask plus the fact that he misses suggests the Colonel has already had too much to drink and Benjamin is attempting to cut him off, and the presence of Abe’s hat says this happened fairly early in the night. The fact that we flip Benjamin off almost immediately after this scene would suggest the Colonel isn’t the only who got cut off.
Okay, so several people get drunk quickly, possibly before the poker game even gets started going by the scarves added to Abe’s hat by the time we see him at the table, laughing with Mark. As the rounds go on, Abe loses his hat, possibly due to a lost wager considering the next time we see it, another one of the players who was at the table is wearing it: Benjamin.
There is another hat involved in this party, that of the Colonel. We can see him wearing it in each of the poker game shots he appears in, as well as in one shot where he has Abe in a choke hold. Maybe due to a dispute over the card game, or something else?
The hat is off-kilter here, and I think it’s in this struggle that the Colonel loses it and, due to his drunken state, fails to notice. Because when we see him without the hat, he and Abe seem to have made up or forgotten whatever it was that made them fight in the first place. Abe is standing there, even laughing as he watches the Colonel load his gun and first point it at the detective, then at himself.
If Abe was right about the time he put the murder at 1:30 AM, then that means it was after this, after he punched us out for whatever reason and ended our time at the party, that Mark approached the Colonel and invited him down to the cellar for a drink, and for the deadly game that would (supposedly) end his life. The Colonel, drunk and cut off by the butler, was probably more than willing to have another drink and may have even gone down to the cellar with Mark with some idea of patching up things between them. In the explanation stream, Mark says that the actor offered to forgive the Colonel of everything if he played the game of Russian roulette, and even took the first “shot” at the Colonel, encouraging him to return the favor.
If the WAIA was being honest when he told us he didn’t know the gun was loaded, that means the Colonel assumed this whole game was just another one of Mark’s jokes. Just an over the top way to forgive him, typical of the actor’s usual dramatics.
It also means that he doesn’t remember he was the one who loaded the gun himself, while the detective and the district attorney watched, both people he would end up shooting as well before the weekend was over.
[Bonus hat!]:
There was also a third hat at the party, that of the chef. Unlike the other two, he keeps his hat firmly on in the two shots we have of him, both of which also confirm the story he gives us the next day: he was in the kitchen all night, first cooking, and then cleaning up everything from that delicious meal he made.
No sign of what caused all that blood he needed to mop up, though, which might be for the best.
