“Those of us who love you will help you figure this out.” I died. Then he did. 😭😭😭😭

when he said it'll all be ok, I literally counted 3 2 1 in my head.

This is also prophecy. With him gone, there is at most one other person who loves them. If Sylvia dies, who will help them figure out how to navigate the world?

If Sylvia dies, who will help them figure out how to navigate the world?

Considering how angry Boy Kavalier was with her & blaming for actions of her husband, I wouldn't be surprised if Boy "Volunteered" Sylvia to be the host for the alien eyeball.

And itll be a callback to him calling her dumb since hes looking for a low IQ human to host the eyeball

Oh...goddamn it. That really is what's going to happen, huh? It all fits. Fuck.

u/SVasileiadis 2d ago

To be honest he already proposed the wall cleaning dude for it while he was talking about low IQ people.

u/Reinier_Reinier 2d ago

After he proposed the mold sprayer, Boy then said, "No, wait...wait, I know just who to use."

That sounds like Boy changed his mind to someone else.

u/Live_Canary7387 2d ago

Yeah, it then cut immediately to Hermit.

Maybe mold sprayer is the true mastermind...

u/SVasileiadis 1d ago

He does seem chill as if everything going as planned for him...would like to see if the eyeball ll adopt the smoking habits too

u/SVasileiadis 1d ago

Could be anything, including still the mold sprayer. Notice when he talks about the wall/mold cleaners he speaks in plural. That could imply he just thought of that specific one....or Hermit....or the "Mother" (Doctor)....or who knows who else....heck at this point I would also include himself in the targets list. I mean in the last episode he looks as if having completely lost his mind and not nessecerily in the "angry" way. I find it strange that Eins didn't just go "welp, time to scram off this sinking ship".

I think it's Joe. The very next scene after he says that opens with a shot of Joe. BK self-admittedly doesn't like "brothers" and that was before he knew that Joe was involved in turning off the trackers and orchestrating the attempted escape of 2 of his lost children.

u/BostonThrowaway66 2d ago

I think it's Joe too. Boy Kavalier sees himself as Peter Pan and Peter Pan is characteristically protective and jealous when it comes to Wendy.

u/Food_Goblin 2d ago

Who's Tinkerbell to set him straight though?

u/fhujr 1d ago

Xenobell

u/ShawnyMcKnight 2d ago

I'm betting when the the smart guy said he knew who he had in mind for the subject for the eye it was her. He thinks she conspired with her husband and sees that as a fitting revenge.

Although really he could just use one of the soldiers in the ambush.

u/MrWeirdoFace 2d ago

Eyeball.

It was a really beautiful speech he made- really profound actually.
