#...maybe a little

The more I think about it, the more impossible it seems to be that Thomas just never existed.

You're telling me Maverick took this disguise, came to the school, had Jasmine force these kids into hell, and then proceed to THINK this??? I understand that the writing before wasn't fleshed out, but c'mon, how can you explain this away 😭🙏 Personally, only explanation to this is that either

A) Maverick offed the original Thomas and took his place

or

B) Maverick had been in disguise the whole time

or

C) He kidnapped the original Thomas and took his place after the incident happened.

I can buy this flowing more easily into the Maverick is Thomas confirmation since Maverick would obviously be confuzzled by this new piece of evidence. And yet it can also be seen as a "Oh shit the teacher noticed!!" That's a good flow of continuity that I appreciate.

Again, I understand that the beginning wasn't as fleshed out....but editing it to fit would be too much work...so it's probably easier to find a way to make it fit

Personally, option A and C are the better routes to fix this plot hole

"Why not B?" Cause that causes more plot holes 😭 like why was bro there in the first place? Idk if Red had planned to fix that plot hole already, so I'm excited to see what more lore we'll learn about Maverick, and why he was the kids' teacher for months.

(If it changes the story...that's fair to leave the plot hole...but it'd be kind of a bummer for details like that to just be left out just because it doesn't fit the story anymore..).

An avatar of the stranger that represents the fear of changing as a person, of hating(/being embarrassed of)your past self and knowing that your future self will hate you.

When he uses his powers on you, things that you see as core parts of your identity starts to shift.

That hobby you have been passionate about is suddenly cringe worthy or boring, you suddenly dont enjoy interacting with a community you frequent, the very way you label yourself might change under his influence.

The avatar represents the fear of your identity being fake, temporary. Knowing that your current identity is fragile and its only a matter of time until you aren't you anymore.

Think hyperfixiations taken to the extreme

In a normal circumstance, I hate Netflix. However, they struck a deal to produce new episodes of Sesame Street and will ensure that the episodes remain free and accessible on PBS for all kids and for that, they deserve gratitude.

Additionally, unlike the deal previous struck with HBO, this one with Netflix also makes its so new episodes are simultaneously available via Netflix, PBS, and the PBS Kids app.

Please continue to support Sesame Street and all the other PBS programming via donations to ensure everyone, kids and adults alike, continue to have access to educational viewing.

Batman gives each of his Robins a different code to use when they’re in trouble and need immediate extraction. He promises that when they call, he’ll drop everything just to get to them, come hell or high water.

Jason, during his time with the League, shares his code with Damian, to be used “only in the direst of circumstances, when you have exhausted all other options.” He doesn’t know if Bruce will answer, given how fractured their relationship was before he died, but it is better than nothing. Every tool counts when they live such dangerous lives.

Damian uses it exactly once, and Bruce, who still feels the loss of his son like a yawning chasm in his chest, responds to it even though he knows it can’t be Jason because Jason’s dead. What he finds, instead of Jason, is a boy in League garbs, drenched in blood from the tips of his midnight-black hair to his too-small feet, with a face that Bruce sees himself and Talia in, requesting asylum from a grandfather who wishes to possess his body. Bruce doesn’t question how this boy who is so clearly his son knew the code. Talia al Ghul is resourceful and places family above all; the code is not beyond her abilities to discover, and she is not above using Bruce’s desperate love for his dead son to ensure that hers does not meet the same fate.

Bruce takes Damian in, because of course he does, and since Jason is dead he allows Damian to keep using the code. After all, it’s not like Jason is alive to use it, right? If someone uses the code, there’s no one it could be but Damian, right?

The next time the code is used, Bruce traces the location to Gotham even though Damian was supposed to be in Bludhaven visiting Dick. But whatever happened that resulted in Damian being in Gotham can wait, because he has already failed one son and he will not fail another, his son is in trouble and he needs to get to him, he needs to—

What he finds, instead of Damian, is a boy (just eighteen, too young, but also too old, but also he will always be a boy to him) in League garbs, drenched in blood from the tips of his midnight-black hair to his too-large feet (when had he gotten so big), wearing the face of his dead son.

(Who, maybe, just maybe, may no longer be so dead.)

"You have 72 hours."

Left alone in the consequences of his obsession, he let desperation get hold of his intellect and come up with a plan. For the world. For himself.
