remember to look behind you

Totheark Uploads


A place to store all the details and decoded messages from the totheark uploads posted in conjunction with the content on the main Marble Hornets channel. The content here is an even split between details noted on the Marble Hornets Wikidot (Transferred here for a more consolidated reading experience) and my own notes and interpretations. Ideally, this page would work as a quick reference for people watching the series for the first time, to make it easy to understand and decode the videos in real time, but my interpretations and decoding tends to keep things in a larger context, so there are some spoilers. If I can figure out how to add a 'click to reveal text' feature, hopefully I'll be able to hide those to make this page more accessible to first time viewers who want to limit those spoilers.


regards

Regards was uploaded by totheark on July 22, 2009 as a video response to Entry 9.

Its description is "////////", and is tagged with "ark" "marble" "hornets".

The video is made up of distorted audio that is impossible to understand. The video is made up a series of rectangles made of slashes that flash repeatedly, and later, the word "CLOSELY".

The number of slashes along the side of the squares translates into "LOK", by counting the corresponding number of letters into the alphabet. L is the 12th letter, 0 is the 15th and K is the 11th. Therefore, read in conjunction with "CLOSELY", the message of the video can be interpreted to mean "LOOK CLOSELY".


Operator

Operator was uploaded on July 31, 2009, as a video reply to Entry 10.

Its description is "\\\yes\\\", and is tagged with "marble" "hornets".

The audio is heavily distorted and appears to be from something outdoors, possibly Entry 4 or Entry 10. The video is a sequence of appearances of text. They appear and disappear on different parts of the screen, reading:

Lakes
In Stillnesss will
Take
Every
life
of the
Night

The capital letters in the text spell the word LISTEN.


Deluge

Deluge was uploaded on August 11, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 11.

Its description is "///", and is tagged with "marble" "hornets".

The audio is a distorted bass noise. Included in the mix is a slow voice repeating what sounds like "Alex" backwards on the left channel.

The video ends with the text "WATCHING YOU" - you is in bold, and spelled using the letter O rather than a zero.

Combining the audio with the text on screen leaves the message: "ALEX WATCHING YOU".


Impurity

Impurity was uploaded on September 01, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 12.

Its description is "000000000", and is tagged with "marble", "hornets", & "ark".

In the first section of the video, there is no audio track, and the only visual is a blinking "begin".

In the second section, a series of zeroes is presented, where the main message seems to be:

00000000000000000000000000
00000
000000000000000000
000000000000000

In the third section, some tree tops are filmed in the rain during a thunder storm. The audio appears to be of that storm - including rain and thunder sounds - along with a frequency of 1046 Hz. Right before the cut to the fourth section, the word "operator" appears in the plant.

In the fourth section, a heavily distorted audio clip is played and the screen is filled with zeroes. Among the zeroes are the letters "T H E R E W A S M R E."

T H E R E W A S M R E, combined with an O that is hidden in the field of 0s (hidden because, like the other totheark videos, the O is likely replaced by a 0) say "There Was More." Counting the zeroes leads to the message "26 5 18 15" - translating that into letters gives "z e r o"


Exit

Exit was uploaded on September 15, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 13.

Its description is "remember me", and is tagged with "marble" "hornets" "ark"

The video starts with quick flashes of the words "Rat" "He" "Ore" and "Top" - an anagram for "the operator". Buzzing can be heard during this segment.

Footage from a handheld camcorder flickers, then steadies and zooms in on a white convertible. Jay walks around the back of the car and enters in through the driver's side - Jay confirmed later via twitter that he was looking for batteries for Alex's camera. This places the footage directly after Jay's exit from Entry 13. He runs back to where he started - the camera follows his movements, then runs after him. A beep is heard, and the video cuts.

The text "WHEREIS THEARK" is displayed on the very last frame of the clip.


Program

Program was uploaded on September 26, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 14.

Its description is "000", and is tagged with "marble", "hornets", & "ark".

The video starts with two seconds of a slightly distorted color correction test screen, then cuts to red-tinted video footage. It appears to be the outside of a house, filmed during a heavy rainstorm. The audio appears to be a ticking sound (like a movie projector) mixed in with a repeating music loop. An undulating hand-drawn "S" occupies the lower-left hand corner of the screen.

The following code flashes over the door of the building, repeating three times:

00
0-
-0
0-

00
00
00
0-

00
00
0-
--

00
00
00
0-

Finally, the video ends with the message:

ble
ed
mo
re

The flashing code translates through binary and ciphers to: EM, SOH, CR, SOH.

EM="End of Medium"

SOH="Start of Header"

CR="Carriage Return"

SOH="Start of Header"

In conjunction with Entry#14, this appears to be a message about the way Alex's footage was filmed. Alex finished one tape, put a new one in the camera to film, then rewound that tape to the beginning, and began filming over it - effectively erasing what had been initially recording in favor of the footage of him bleeding from the head. The "BLEED MORE" is seemingly a message to Alex from tta.


Advocate

Advocate was uploaded on October 12, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 15.

Its description is "00110111", and is tagged with "marble", "hornets", & "ark".

The video begins with a black screen with the words "tick tock" written upside down on it.

At 00:02, video of Brian starts. It is from the same set as Entry 7, but the footage does not seem to match up with anything actually in Entry #7. The same S symbol from Program is in the upper right corner - presumably the greek symbol 'Sigma'. The video is accompanied by distorted audio, including a section that sounds like reversed and slowed speech. Over the video is a binary clock counting down from 1 to 10. The footage of Brian pans from him to look out the back window.

The combination of the title, countdown, and Brian's image suggests this might be a sign that Brian (the Hooded man) is in some kind of danger and may be a plea for help on his behalf.


Addition

Addition was uploaded on October 21, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 16.

Its description is "//eyes\\", and is tagged with "marble", "hornets", & "ark".

The video is grainy footage of Jay during his coughing fit in Entry 16, while slowed down audio of Jay calling "Alex? Brian?" from the same entry plays in the background. At 00:13 a black screen with fuzzy text reads:
SEE
YOU


Signal

Signal was uploaded on November 4, 2009 as a video reply to Entry 17.

Its description is "again".

Stock footage and audio from an old movie - "Silent Snow, Secret Snow" is played. The video has a strange red-blue effect on it and the audio is slightly distorted. The voice of a narrator speaks through the video, saying, "Just wait 'til we're alone together, and I will tell you something new, something cold, something sleepy, something obscene, a piece in the long bright curve of space. Banish them, refuse to speak. Leave them. Go upstairs to your room. I will be waiting for you. I will surround your bed. Close the windows, so that none will ever again be able to enter. I will be waiting for you."

When the stock footage stops, a black screen with blurry white text reading "COME BACK" appears. The single final frame of the video reads "find me".


Messages

Messages was uploaded on November 21, 2009, as a video reply to Entry 18.

Its description is ".".

This video uses external footage of a ship sinking. The audio is a reversed and slowed down version of a song played by a full band/orchestra. White text is imposed on the external images. This text reads:

Tell us
You have been keeping
secrets.
Smile for the camera

Beginning at 00:21 while the text reads "Smile for the camera" a picture of the bottom half of Tim's face is layered over the image of the sinking ship.


Return

Return was uploaded on December 2nd, 2009, as a video reply to Entry 19.

Its description is "91".

The video begins with a close up of Jay with very dark marks or circles under his eyes sitting on the floor in a hallway against a door. The look on his face is of a stupor or trance. The video then cuts to a long shot of the hallway with Jay in the same position as before at the bottom of the frame. To the right is an L bend in the hallway. At the 0:04 second mark what appears to be The Operator emerges from the hall and proceeds towards the camera. The video then cuts to black with the following text centered on screen:

fou
nd
you

The final frame of the video reads "forever".

The description (91) being an inverse of the entry this video is responding to (19) where Jay shows footage of himself disappearing for hours from his home security cameras indicates this is tta showing off that they are both watching Jay (as they stress in 'Addition') but that they also know where Jay was during those missing hours.


Version

Version was uploaded on December 16, 2009, as a video reply to Entry 20.

Its description is "s".

It begins with chroma-keyed upside-down footage of the Entry 5 Tower and then cuts to a block of zeros with the following words flashing across in front of them:

poison
random
endings
centered
excludes
death
encountering
stale
truth
receives
endangering
every
section

It ends with the text "waiting for you" with each word stacked vertically atop the next. Followed by a single frame of a red X.

The first letters of the flashing text spell out "PRECEEDS TREES", which is an anagram of "DEEPER SECRETS". The audio is augmented morse code that translates to OPERATOR.

This reply is seemingly a confirmation of Jay's suspicion that the pages left in Brian's house with the note 'AT THE TOWER' written behind an operator symbol is referring to the Red Tower featured in entry#5. TTA telling Jay that he's not only correct about where to do, but that the location Will reveal further clues for Jay's investigation.


Attention

Attention was uploaded on January 10, 2010.

Its description was "."

Stock footage of people riding bicycles through a crowd and an image of a sailor going to throw something out, then footage being reversed so that he pulls back instead. Accompanied by cryptic messages telling Jay to "return to us", "wake up". The final text screen reads "aiatiwnguoryrarialv" (Anagram for Awaiting your arrival), and the final shot is of the Red Tower with an operator symbol scratched into its side - once again, implying Jay should go there.

On Twitter Jay comments on this video saying "I don't like the fact that it says "us" in the video."


Admission

Admission was uploaded on January 15, 2010, as a video reply to Entry #16.

Its description is "+".

Grainy, distorted footage appears to show a figure moving across a window with slatted blinds, and then shows a half-door in a hallway opening, and then slamming shut again. The video ends with the text "there are doors unopened".

This video seems to have been filmed inside of Brian's house - telling Jay that there are still things inside the house that could help him in his investigation.


Warning

Warning was uploaded on February 3rd, 2010, after Entry #23

The description reads “failure nigh”

This video is largely made up of grainy distorted black and white footage of the Masked Man, a little wooden mannequin, and a white board with varying drawings. The video is introduced with text on the board reading "The following are raw footage excerpts from ALex Kralie" - possibly poking fun at the Introduction video to the Marble Hornets channel Jay made, rather than a genuine source for the footage. Other messages in the video state “EYES OPen.” (The “O” has an x through it, causing it to resemble the Operator Symbol.), "Stay Home", "Be Alone", "Smile for the Camera", "Regards", and "Smile for Death".


Entry ######

Entry ###### was uploaded on March 05, 2010 on the original Marble Hornets channel.

The description reads ""

The video is once again made up of distorted footage of the Masked Man and interspersed with more ambiguous images. Voice over throughout the video says, "We will wait for you no more. Control is being taken away from you. From the start this has been a game to us. Not anymore. I'm coming for you, and you will lead me to the ark."

Jay says on Twitter that he did not upload this video, and that he suspects the account was hacked prior to its upload. It's one of the more overt threats totheark has made towards Jay, and he takes it as such, leaving his apartment and opting to stay in an unspecified hotel. Worth noting that this was likely totheark's intented goal - in a subsequent video, Jay uploads newsreel footage relaying that his apartment was burned down (with Alex's later attempt to burn Tim's house down, it's implied this was done by him rather than any members of totheark), but that he's safe because he wasn't staying there.

--End Season One--

Fragments

Fragments was posted on February 10th, 2011.

Its description is "hello again".

It is tagged with "always" "see" "you".

This video features a photo of Alex Kralie that has been torn up into pieces that shift to distort his face more and more as the video progresses. Text intercut between shots of the photo reads "You are broken", "you cannot be fixed". Distorted tone audio increases in volume and distortion over the course of the video.

Black frame that are interspersed at regular intervals throughout the video can be timed out into morse code, reading "Must" and "Die", presumably still in reference to Alex.


Broadcast

Broadcast was posted on February 26th, 2011.

It has the description "are you drowning".

The video features distorted red/cyan footage of what seems to be a figure peering down at the camera that has been placed underwater. The audio seems to be composed of warped and distorted speech, and it's nigh unintelligble, but may be saying, "Enjoying watching you suffer. Do you know me? I will always know you."

Because this video was posted after Entry 35, where the Masked Man has his leg broken by Alex, it's possible the 'Enjoying watching you suffer' is in reference to him.


Sidetone

Sidetone was posted on March 15th, 2011.

It has the description "# 000-0000".

The video contains Black screen with dial tone, a screeching distortion overlapping at 00:03. Part of a phone number pad is shown, focused on 7 (PQRS) 8 (TUV) * and 0 (OPER) that cuts to quick image of a hand-written sign, "Ring" spelled backwards. Three beeps are heard. The footage starts to jump and distort with images of a silhouetted figure of The Operator is seen over top of the background footage. Numbers can be seen quickly flashing in the back ground: 12, 9, 5, and 19.

Over the video, a recording of Alex's voicemail message plays: "Hello, you've reached the voicemail of Alex Kralie, I'm not answering the phone right now. Please leave your name and a number, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can."

The numbers flashing towards the end of the video alpha-numerically spell out "LIES".

Since this video was uploaded after old footage of Jay trying to get a hold of Alex was posted on the Marble Hornets channel, the message totheark seems to be trying to get across is the fact that Alex is lying about needing Jay's help and about trying to be helpful in return.


enttry 37

Enttry #37 was posted on March 23rd, 2011 on the original Marble Hornets channel.

Its description is the description "memories".

The video seems to be an old VHS home video, filmed on April 4, 1991, of a young Alex's birthday party. When Alex blows out the candles, the video becomes extremely distorted and the image of the operator appears superimposed over Alex.

It's possible this could imply that the Operator had been following Alex since he was a child, or it could simply be another one of totheark's many threats towards Alex - the fact that totheark was able to obtain this footage at all implies they knew where Alex grew up, or at least where his parents currently live. This video is the first of several "birthday videos" that totheark would make and post on/around Alex's birthday - this particular video was posted about a week and a half in advance of the date, while all subsequent ones were posted on April 4 specifically, it's possible this video was just an establishment of the date of Alex's birthday.


Forecast

Forecast was posted on April 21st, 2011.

It has the description "c2VlIHlvdSBzYXcgeW91" - (see you saw you).

Footage of a dog lung being inflated and deflated from Experiments in the revival of organisms part 1. The numbers 2 26 18 2 32 36 30 32 16 10 40 show up in the top left hand of the screen. A very distorted Beethoven's 5th is heard. Distorted writing and a face with eyes drawn operator symbols comes on screen, followed by the words "here is something i have wanted to show you", referring to footage taken from outside Jay's car of him sleeping inside it.

The numbers that appeared at the left of the screen, when divided by two, alpha-numerically spell out "AM I A PROPHET"


Intermission

Intermission was posted on May 16th, 2011.

It has the description "YmV oaW5kIHRo ZSBjd XJ0YWlu" - (behind the curtain).

Sketches of trees are shown, including one with a strange figure lying against a tree. The sketches are followed by distorted black and white footage of a forest. White text throughout the video reads "DID YOU SEE ME; I SAW YOU". Cut to black screen. Four digit numbers appear in the middle of the screen. Each number overlaps with the previously shown number and then disappears two numbers later. The numbers, in order, are: 1122, 3125, 1920, 85185.

If the numbers are broken up as 1/12/23/1/25/19 20/8/5/18/5 it says "always there".

This video was posted after Entry 40 was posted to the Marble Hornets channel. Looking back at that video, there is a figure standing up against a tree in the background of Jay's footage - the text and the sketch of the figure shown in this totheark upload both state that this figure was a member of totheark, subsequently revealed as the Hooded Man.


Indicator

Indicator was posted on June 2nd, 2011.

It has the description "blind".

The video is mostly made up of footage of a mangled baby doll. Text interspersed throughout the video reads "MESSAGES EVERYWHERE", "SIGNS EVERYWHERE", "YOU WILL NEVER BE FREE".

Several rows of flashing numbers appear on screen:
00010010
.
.
00010010
10100110
.
00010010
10100110
00110110

10010110
01100101
11001110

00000000
00000000
00000000

11111111
11111111
11111111

These numbers can be translated to the text "HE LIES".


Memories

Memories was posted on June 20th, 2011.

It has the description "NT Qz MjE =" - (54321).

The video is mostly made up of black and white footage of a bench or front porch. Text intercut throughout the video reads "YEARS WASTED", "YOUVE DONE" "NOTHING", "SO MUCH MORE THAN TIME HAS BEEN TAKEN".


INQUIRY

Inquiry was posted on July 7th, 2011.

It has the description "maɪnəs sɛntrɔɪd" - ("minus centroid").

The words "LOOK AT YOU" appear on screen. A white silhouette of a person's head and shoulders appears, and steadily gets larger, then the silhouette fades, and the image of a human brain is left where the head was. An arrow appears, pointing to the PARIETAL LOBE of the brain, and the words "YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE" appear and focus. The words YOU ARE YOU appear over what might be an image of a face, in the lower left-hand corner. A different distorted face, appears, as do the words "BUT WHO ARE YOU" in the lower left-hand corner. Two more faces appear on screen, each overlayed with the text "WHO ARE YOU". The audio cuts out and only a faint noise can be heard. This noise corresponds to the words "DO I HELP"/"OR DO I KILL" found in the spectrogram of the video.

There's a lot to speculate with this video. The focus on the brain and different areas indicated - such as the Parietal Lobe which focuses "sensory input, language, mathematics and spatial relations", or possibly the Wernicke's area, which spans the region between temporal and parietal lobes, which plays a key role in speech comprehension. This could be denoting general influence the Operator has over the brain, or possibly outlining a more specific damage dealt to one person (perhaps the Hooded Man himself, as he communicates exclusively in code as opposed to more straightforward messages - it's possible this is his attempt to express the idea that he Cannot be more explicit in his communication).

The message "DO I HELP OR DO I KILL" could also be twofold. On one hand, it's possible this is the Hooded Man trying to pin down his own intentions - should he help Jay or should he kill them? Alternately, it could be an expression of self-doubt - he's Trying to help Jay, but worries he's doing more harm than good.


Classified

Classified was posted on August 15th, 2011.

It has the description "[][]".

In the video, a series of zeroes scroll across the screen. The word “I know you’re there” are written behind the zeroes in red letters. A picture of the Hooded Man sitting appears on the right side of the screen. There are two glowing dots over his eyes. The numbers “19 14 9 23 20 5 8 20 21 54 57 54 36 33 24 54 96 96 42 30 6 42 51 21 72 21” flash on the left side of the screen one at a time. Loud, scratchy music plays during this part. Finally, an orange tinted close up of an eye appears. The words “I saw it” are written in the upper right hand corner of the screen. The picture disappears and the words flash a few times before the screen goes to black.

The number code shown translates to "The twins do you know what he did". "The Twins" likely referring to the Hooded Man and the Masked Man in conjunction with one antoher.


Sidenote

Sidenote was posted on September 1st, 2011.

It has the description "remainseated iwillfindyou".

This video features a clip featuring both the Masked Man and Tim plays. Alex's line, "You've done nothing but make everything worse" is heard. "You've done nothing" repeats at the end. Text shown at the beginning and end of the video reads "BE SILENT" and "THIS IS THE BEST PART"

The timing of this video in between Entry's #48 and #49 means it's likely the Hooded Man identified the footage shown in 48 and is anticipating the footage Jay will upload as 49, another implication that he already knows everything Jay is still in the process of uncovering.


Extraction

Extraction was posted on September 27th, 2011.

It has the description "never".

This video features footage of the Masked Man limping toward the camera on a dark street. Flashes of videos are seen, including a shot of Tim from Entry 20 and the tunnel from Entry 49. The video ends with the words: "HOW MUCH DO YOU HATE", "IT IS NOT ENOUGH".

It's possible this upload was a message to Tim - although he might hate Alex for breaking his leg, it's insufficient motive in the face of Alex murdering a stranger. Or possible that it's another message to Jay - who up until now has seemed ambivalent about Alex's character at best - to say once and for all that Alex is irredeemable and that any effort made to Help him is utterly wasted. Either way, it places the Hooded Man as the one with the most amount of animosity aimed towards Alex - 'neither of you hate him as much as I do'.

-- END SEASON TWO--


Reminder

Reminder was posted on March 15th, 2012.

It has the description "iknowyou".

This video features a bright close up shot of tree branches. Followed by a shot of a field surrounded by trees. White text over the shot: “Do you remember me?” A distorted image of a face flashes briefly at 0:10. Then, a shot of Jay looking into the windows of the antique store taken from across the street. White text on screen reads “I have not forgotten.”

This video is a message to Jay - although time has passed, totheark is still watching Jay closely and intends to keep doing so. The footage of Jay peeking into the Antique Shop's windows is a direct response to Jay's own footage of himself doing this in the previous uploaded entry #53. Just because Jay has switched focus to following Tim doesn't mean that totheark's goals have changed at all.


Decay

Decay was posted on April 4, 2012 - the second of totheark's Birthday Videos.

Its description is "011001010110111001100100011010000110100101101101" - (endhim).

The beginning of the video is a few different shots of Alex, in conjunction with the text "You caused this" and "You will never be forgiven". Footage of Jay is then shown, in conjunction with the text "He will lead me to you" and "Lead me to death". Footage of a bright yellow shot of the woods, with text on screen: “Lead me to the ark” The numbers 14, 15, 3, 8, 15, 9, 3, and 5 flash around the words. Then, footage of a completely white figure of a person with glowing red eyes. The words “Always watching” are around him. Finally, a shot of an eye with spots of random colors swirling around the screen. More digital squealing.

The numbers that flashed on screen translate through alpha-numeric code to "no choice". The squealing noise at the end of the video is a spectograph that spells out "Today is your last birthday".

This video is twofold - a birthday video for Alex and a response to the footage Jay uploaded in Entry #54, which showed Tim, Brian, and Alex hanging out after a day of filming for the Marble Hornets movie project and goofing off together. It's both another threat aimed at Alex, and an angry response to the reminder that they used to be good friends - although they were close once, Alex ruined everything and will never be forgiven for it. totheark intends to kill Alex and presumably die himself after the task is done.


Session

Session was posted on May 14, 2012.

It has the description "closeby i seeyou as always".

Various clips, mostly of children in a classroom or with a camera/projector are shown with text reading "one day you will understand", "secrets everywhere", "liars everywhere", "look closely and you will know", "see you soon", "hes watching".

This video was uploaded after Entry #57, which contained uploaded footage of college-era Tim being hunted by Alex after they went location scouting to the Abandoned Hospital in the Rosswood area. It's possible that this video was a message directed towards Tim - although the previous Tim didn't understand what was happening when Alex attacked him, the present day Tim will understand it. 'He's watching' could also be another allusion to the fact that Alex has been keeping up with the Marble Hornets channel since its inception - another fruitless warning to Jay that Alex is aware of where he's at in his investigation and is being kept up to date with what Jay knows.


Reference

Reference was posted on June 22, 2012.

It has the description "do not fail".

The words "LOOK TO THE ORIGINS" appear. Tim's rant from Entry #59 plays, at high speed and distorted as an image of a tunnel is seen. A mask emerges from the darkness, the words "TRUTH WITH LIGHT" and a series of numbers appear - 1912, 85, 41, 89, 1420, 95, 1811, 199.

When translated into letters through pairs, the numbers spell out "his lies in the dark" - a contrast to the 'truth with light' text from earlier.

This video was uploaded roughly a week before Entry #60, wherein Jay was given a copy of Tim's medical records from when he was a child, revealing that Tim has been likely plagued by the Operator since he was a kid. Although Tim angrily implies Jay to be the problem in #59, the 'truth' is that Tim may well be the origins of the sickness. It's possible the revelation of this knowledge is what caused the split between the Masked Man and the Hooded Man - one reason they no longer seem to be working together.


observation

Observation was posted on August 1, 2012.

It has the description "waitingon you".

This video features distorted black and white footage of Tim, seemingly taken from outside his bedroom window. Tim walks into the room, sits on his bed for a bit - where an Operator mark briefly flashes over his head - and then he takes some of his medication before seeming alerted by something outside. He walks up to the window - a brief shot of his mask flashes over his face - and looks outside before the video cuts.


entry

"entry" was posted on August 8, 2012 on the original Marble Hornets channel.

It has the description "this is for you to see".

It was taken down and reuploaded as Entry #61 later that same day.

The video contains footage of the Hooded Man breaking into Tim's house and stealing his medication. When he hears Tim come home, he sets his camera up in the closet and hides in it. Tim comes into the room looking haggard and suffering from a coughing fit. He looks for his medication, and when he's unable to find it, he has a seizure, text on screen reads "LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE CAUSED". When he comes out of it, he cries for a bit, and eventually gets up and staggers away. The Hooded Man reemerges from the closet, and text on screen reads "WHERE COULD HE HAVE GONE" and "THIS IS YOUR ONLY CHANCE". Numbers 01110100011 0100001100 10101110100 01110010011 00101011001 01 011 10011 Flash over the screen - translates to "the trees", likely referencing Rosswood Park where Tim's medical records said he tended to run off to when he was a child.


Isolation

Isolation was posted on September 15, 2012.

It has the description "alonealonealone".

This video features footage of several wooded locations. The first is the Red Building where Jay and Tim woke up at the end of the previously uploaded Entry #62. Text reads "WHO IS HE", slightly altered to read "WHO ARE YOU. Shot cuts to new footage of the Hooded Man in the footage, walking towards the camera. Cuts again to a wall of the red building, where an eye is superimposed over a gap, text below it reads "WHERE IS HE". The screen is briefly filled with the text "WHERE" repeated edge to edge. The shot cuts to new footage of the Hooded Man in the woods, standing next to or in the doorway of a building. The words "MEET AGAIN SOON" are shown briefly at the center of the frame. For an instant there's a static noise and an image of The Operator is superimposed next to Hoody. The words "FOLLOWS ALL" appear at that time.

This upload seems to be a lament of sorts. Tim, for a time, operated as the Masked Man alongside the Hooded Man, but is now working - maskless - with Jay. The Hooded Man seems maybe a little bereft by this, maybe wondering 'which' Tim is the 'real' one - the one he worked with or the one appearing clueless alongside Jay. The "meet again soon" may be a request for Tim to return as his partner or may just imply that they'll wind up crossing paths with one another soon.

It has the description "ey ess ee" - (eyes see)

This video features a shot of the ocean with fish swimming around. Text in the corner reads "REMEMBER". Cut to two faces flashing on the screen. A street with a street lamp is out of focus. Text in the corner reads "YOU ABANDONED HIM". Cut to a shot of an out of focus person walking towards the camera, text overlaps the previous reading "I SAW". Footage of someone running through what appears to be the forest of Rosswood Park. Panting can be heard. Text reads "HE IS SEARCHING" - the words "Alex" and "For you" briefly appear on screen, changing the text to "ALEX IS SEARCHING FOR YOU". Several other shots of footage appear, the person on the street again, now closer, a red screen with what may be a pixelated Marble Hornets logo, the Tunnel in Rosswood flooded with water, a screen full of 0s with some letters spelling out "WATCH DEATH" interspersed between them.

This video was posted after Jay uploaded Entry #64, where Jay and Tim went to investigate the tunnel and encountered the Operator. Jay attempted to help Tim back up from where he'd collapsed from a coughing fit, but failed, and ran off alone at Tim's behest. totheark seems to be spitefully calling out Jay for leaving him behind, as well as warning them that the phone call from Alex wasn't a coincidence - he is still following Jay and Tim, and closely.


Surveillance

Surveillance was posted on Dec 30, 2012.

It has the description: 1561571451 6515615116 4156157143 - ("noeunitnoc", or "continue on" backwards)

This video is largely made up of several televisions set up in the forest. Some shots show the television breaking/decaying, of the hooded man's reflection in the screen, entry footage superimposed over them, or of text being shown on the screens. Text throughout the video reads "SEES" "NOW", "PERMANENCE", "79758327727224 82756813832779", a series of question marks, "688357682483 797983577557".

The numbers at the end translate to "truly your fault" and "shes out there".

Around this time a code was also posted on twitter - "9513390313793583953179" - "I am watching".

Since this video was uploaded after Jay's posting of Entry #65, which detailed what happened to Tim after Jay ran off in the Tunnel. The "truly your fault" could be a message to Jay - because he left Tim behind, everything that happened to Tim after this was Jay's fault. Another spiteful dig maybe aimed at both of them - "this wouldn't have happened if Tim was still working with me" ?


68

68 was posted on the main Marble Hornets channel, and was reuploaded by Jay about an hour later as Entry #68, posted on March 20, 2013.

The description reads "68".

This video contains footage of the Hooded Man, walking through an open field, into the woods, and then into an abandoned building. He sits on the mattress inside the building, and removes his hood to drink some water - keeping his face carefully out of frame. He gets up to walk around the building, checking windows and doors, and then is surprised by Alex running up behind him and knocking him down. Alex says, voice distorted, "Where did they go? Where are Jay and Tim? Wipe that stupid smile off your face." The Hooded Man pushes Alex off of him and runs off into the woods, Alex shouts after him "You can run all you want! I will find you!". In response, text on screen reads "You will not". The footage shifts from the Hooded Man running to a brief glimpse of Alex from earlier in the entry.Then, a shot from inside of the maintenance tunnel of the hospital facing the entrance. The words “You are afraid” are over the center of the shot. The words change to “I am not” at 4:00. Someone is seen jumping down into the tunnel at 4:03. Again, it cuts to The Hooded Man is sitting in one of the tunnels facing the camera with a lantern next to him. The sound of footsteps begin to get closer. At 4:24, he reaches over and turns the lantern off. White text on screen: “You are trapped” Briefly changes to "We are trapped" at 4:33.


Decline

Decline was posted on April 4, 2013 - the third of totheark's Birthday videos.

It has the description "canyousee anytruth atall".

The video is made up largely of footage of several different landscapes, intercut with footage of Alex tied to the chair from Entry #67, footage of the Hooded Man attacking Alex, footage of Tim attacking Alex, and footage of the Hooded Man pointing the gun at Alex. Text superimposed over the footage reads "EVERYTHING IS NORMAL", "EVERYTHING IS FINE", "I WORRY ABOUT NOTHING", "BECAUSE NOTHING'S ON MY MIND". At the end of the video an Operator symbol is shown on a wall, the numbers “83 57 03 95 27 27 35 13 72” are painted below it, followed by a quick shot of Alex with blood on his face from Entry #14.

The numbers on the wall at the end translate to "He will pay". A Spectograph at the end of the video reads "HAVE YOU MADE ME A LIAR????? OR IS HE GONE"

It has the description: "removetrust forget itisreal"

This video is made up of several cut together shots from varying entries and uploads. A picture of the ground through a night vision camera shakes in the background behind an extremely distorted picture of a person. The words “Another failure” are in the corner. Cut to a picture of Tim standing in the woods. His head briefly splits into two separate faces before going back to normal. The words “You are not trusted” on screen. Cut to a picture of Jay is on one side of the screen with the words “Deeper and deeper we go” on the other side, partially hidden behind a series of white and black bars. Cut to a clip of Tim finding the stranger’s body from Entry #65 plays. The words “Where there is no light” is in the lower corner. Cut to a picture of who looks like Alex. The picture is flickering and heavily distorted. The words “He is distorted” are next to him. The sound changes to what sounds like people talking unintelligibly. A black screen with the words “You are distorted” is shown just before the video ends.

This video was uploaded after Entry #75 and #76, wherein Tim attempted to hide a tape from Jay, causing the two of them to fight. Tim failed to keep the tape from Jay, and Jay no longer trusts Tim. Everyone is being distorted by the trauma of the situation and the Operator's influence.


Quadrant

It has the description: "didyou eversee"

This video features several extremly distorted shots of various locations - the abandoned hospital in Rosswood and several buildings from the college where Benedict Hall is located. Some black and white movie footage appears to bleed over the footage, and a final shot of a blurry face (possibly Alex?) is shown. totheark's note to Jay regarding Benedict Hall shows around the halfway mark, and text at the end reads "WHO AM I", "THE THIRD" being briefly added in at the end. White text over a blue screen reads "N E1Y IMC 6C9?" - translating to "I CANNOT HELP".

Audio over the video seems to be a distorted rendition of "3 blind mice". Distorted audio clip seems to say "HOLD YOUR FORMATION. DO NOT DO THIS. HOLD OFF. STAY PUT. EVERYONE IS GOING TO..."

This video seems to be a message to Jay, who in the previous Entry said that he was watching Benedict Hall and waiting to make a move. This upload seems to be totheark's attempt to tell him to stop and wait - if Jay doesn't hold his position, something bad is going to happen, and totheark won't be able to help him.


Null

Null was uploaded on February 20, 2014.

It has the description " = LOC ATI ON =".

This video is largely made up of several outdoors, nature shots - close ups of trees, a lake brambles, and some abandoned structure. Text throughout the video reads "IT IS SILENT", "WHO IS LEFT TO HEAR THE SECRET" (Briefly altered to read "WHO IS LEFT TO HEAR YOUR SECRET"), "DO YOU KNOW", "I HAVE FOR YEARS", "ARK AWAITS", "WHAT DO YOU SEE" (Briefly altered to read "WHAT DO YOU HEAR". Briefly altered again to read "WHAT WILL YOU SEE"), "REGARDS", followed by a series of garbled numbers and letters.

The letters interspersed with the garbled numbers at the end spell out "B R I N" - and an operator symbol, translated to "BRIAN" - the finally revealed identity of the Hooded Man.

This was the last video published to the totheark channel. The next Entry uploaded to the Marble Hornets channel in March reveals that the Hooded Man fell to his death.
