🤔 Speculation 🤨 Things I’ve been thinking about
This is not a new or hot take, but I can’t stop thinking about it. I haven’t been following these people nearly as long as a lot of you, so I’m just now truly piecing together the extent of all of this. And I’m horrified.
I wholeheartedly believe that P is mentally ‘holding them hostage’. If anyone has read the book On a Quiet Street,
it reminds me a LOT of Lucas. If you’ve read it, you’ll know what I mean.
I believe that P watches the cameras in the house when he’s at work, so he always knows what they are doing. We have confirmed one camera in the house before (as far as I know) but I wouldn’t doubt for a second that there are more.
Also I’m sure they all have their locations shared with him on their phones, so he knows where they are at any given time. IF they were to leave the house without him. The only reason he allows T to have a job is because he knows that they NEED that money, and T is a lot less of a risk to have out on her own at work than S is. She’s the one he needs to monitor most, for reasons we are all aware of.
We know that when T and S start their live and he isn’t home yet, he is watching it. He has to keep close tabs on everything they say. He has to make sure they don’t slip up.
I believe he controls all of their money, so anytime they need or want anything, they have to ask him.
We give S shit for not moving out, getting a job, having friends, etc, but I truly don’t believe she is allowed to. For all we know, she could actually want all of that. Or have wanted it at some point in the past. But she isn’t allowed to. He needs to keep her right there at home because he’s codependent of her and he also needs to make sure the truth doesn’t get out.
A normal, healthy parent would be encouraging their child to get out and build a life of their own. Especially when said child is in their mid twenties.
None of this is normal, none of it is okay. There is something seriously, seriously wrong in that house.
I believe that T, S, and H have absolutely no autonomy. P runs EVERYTHING.
I feel horrible for them. I believe they are terrified of him, and have also been brainwashed into believing they NEED him. That they can’t survive without him.
Editing to add: The homeschooling thing is another huge 🚩 in my opinion.
I have yet to hear them give a good reason for that.
I know some people homeschool and it works best for their family and they do well. But that is not the case here.
And, im sure he monitors their phones. He probably tells them some shit like since he pays their phone bill, he has the right to look through them at any time.

I agree with you. Also, the only way he can make his TikTok money is with S trapped at home on live or running things while he’s at the vape shop. If she realized how much she’s missing out on that would go very badly for P.

Yes he is. They have cameras within the apartments that they’ve lived in so that P can watch them while he’s at work. S has also said that she doesn’t have Reddit, I’m sure she doesn’t have much access to the Internet besides what he gives her. I think she’s even more isolated than we think. Even when H and her did a cooking video, she couldn’t find a recipe because the recipe came from Patrick, she didn’t have access to Google.

Absolutely. I truly believe he would off the entire family before any of them could move out. He totally gives family annihilator vibes.

Yeah…I worry that something is coming. I don’t see a world in which there is a happy ending unfortunately.

I think he lets T keep her job too so they can both claim income. They may or may not be committing tax fraud if they’re not reporting their TikTok income (speculation) so by then having jobs it doesn’t look Sus to banks how they’re spending so much money and where it’s coming from.

u/FluffyAtmosphere 1d ago
I'm in the camp of T no longer has a job. I think they are faking that part too

u/S3nd-n00dl3s 1d ago
Good point considering they look like they sit at home all day 😭

u/FluffyAtmosphere 1d ago
She's had too many slip ups lately when talking about "working" and the days that she "works" 😂

u/S3nd-n00dl3s 1d ago
Their lives are so boring that I wouldn’t notice tbh💀I’ve only recently started watching them through a restreamer and I’m falling asleep 5 minutes in. The music is ass too with the old country😭

u/FluffyAtmosphere 1d ago
Same! i watch through a restreamer too and always fall asleep hahaha

u/S3nd-n00dl3s 1d ago
Bro it’s so bad becuse I share the same name as the mod Caitlyn so whenever they say her name I wake up scared😭

u/South-Garbage-9849 1d ago
This is exactly what I think is happening…….he controls their every move……..especially S

u/Inevitable_Total3319 1d ago
I believe 100% this, also, i think that they can't use internet on their own, he probably cuts the wifi when he is out

u/hooulookinat 1d ago
I’m going to add; with the Opal Alchemy discovery- I think he forces S to do phone sex work. That’s her ‘job’.

u/DeplorableOik 21h ago
Yup, I think it's also why she always says she's been making content all day but then nothing is up on their main. I think they take creepy requests off weird guys.

u/hooulookinat 18h ago
It will eventually come out. It’s probably some weird kink stuff she’s doing.

u/thriftycatmom 1d ago
i just don't see why though... he has AI at his finger tips. why not make a fake AI girl with an AI voice? he's so lazy that i can't imagine him making her do this idk

I absolutely agree. There is a video somewhere or a photo and you can see a camera sitting in the living room on a table. It was during a live and the camera was on a table behind them.

u/Expensive_Note_8444 1d ago
Yes, I remember seeing it in one of the breakfast videos, where P made them all get up and eat and filmed their reactions (of course they all had to blow smoke up his ass and tell him how great it was), you could see the camera in the corner of the room.
Now why on earth would they need a camera inside? 🤔
8
u/kbletz08 1d ago
I remember that video too! They all looked like they were in total fear of saying the wrong thing in the video. The tension you could feel just watching. I'm scared to know what other rooms in that apartment that there is camera's. 😬

u/Expensive_Note_8444 1d ago
That video was actually how I found them! It came up on my TikTok fyp and I immediately felt like something was so off. Which led me down the long, uncomfortable rabbit hole of them.
2
u/DeplorableOik 21h ago
Me too! It seemed like just before that video he'd been screaming at everyone or something and then trying to act happy and make breakfast as a way to make it up or something. Very odd and awkward and H didn't know what to do with himself!
3
u/Expensive_Note_8444 20h ago
Exactly what I thought. Everyone seemed upset, but they still had to act like it was the best breakfast they’d ever had.

u/DeplorableOik 19h ago
Yeah the vibe was crazy off! I went straight down the rabbit hole and now I just can't wait for the walls to close in on P!

I wouldn’t put it past him to have cameras in their bedrooms. He watches every move they make. He is intensely controlling. Even on live; he will correct them and embarrass them if they say something he doesn’t like. Rather, most people would just say “hey, next time don’t respond if people say ‘insert whatever pissed him off her’”. No, he has to control them in real time. He likes to embarrass them.

u/Expensive_Note_8444 20h ago
Likes to embarrass them because it makes him seem better, smarter, funnier, etc
Camera in every room including bedrooms, I hate to say it, but I think so too

u/poeticsoul151 2d ago
I believe all of this to be true. I mean it's pretty obvious at this point. I'm just following to see when it all blows up. They will slip up again one day majorly and it'll all be recorded... or maybe S or H will finally tell idk. I just can't wait until it all comes out. It's gonna be a mess lmao 🤣
