This isn’t really a theory itself, but it’s a rant between two theories that go well with each other.
The original theories (or at least where I found these amazing thoughts) - @dandymaximilian ‘s purgatory theory and ‘The Film Theorists’ video - Film Theory: Who’s REALLY in Control?! (DHMIS)
First of all imma point out that this IS a loop, it is mentioned a few times already and is photo proofed
And adding on Lesley tells Yellow Guy that he ‘still can’t understand what’s funny’ even though Yellow Guy has no relating memory of meeting her before, which could conclude that in some alternative loop he’s been there before.
But here’s the funny thing, each time they go through a loop, the house changes. It could be little details such as decor, but also the house itself.
Another weird detail is how red guy says “All we do is sit around and some guy comes and tells us about banks or vegetables or something” because neither of those things were taught, at least yet (other then Banks, but that was in the next episode after)
Either, between every loop they can’t remember past lessons (this one doesn’t make much sense as in the YouTube series Yellow Guy in the last video could recall the teachers and what they did to them)
Or every episode (or even every few episodes) we are facing different alternatives of the three (Ones where they get different lessons, but adding up to the same value)
With this in mind, there is the book
If you forget the symbols in the middle for a second you can notice the pictures on the side
Circled in red those are things that have already been mentioned or done
Bird Guy losing his head in ‘Death’
Yellow Guy losing his hand in ‘Jobs’
The shovel in ‘Death’
The one circled in Yellow I believe has no significant value to what I’m getting at as it could just mean that teachers themselves can ‘earn their coins’ too (as in the purgatory theory)
And circled in green are things that haven’t happened
Out of the three of them Yellow Guy is the only one who has kept his head throughout the whole series
And Yellow Guy doesn’t mention his batteries until episode six in the TV series, but on the cover it’s seen with Warren the ‘Eagle’
Perhaps the book isn’t just answers to the meaning of it all, but the script to how the ‘game’ is supposed to go.
This is where the purgatory theory really comes in hand
Seen in the upstair’s room these are three meaningful objects, but as u see the colors don’t line up well.
Green as in Duck Guy is the chuddle dollops, but he was never able to open the bag
The red outline of the case going to Red Guy doesn’t belong, because Red guy was never obliged with the shovel
The only one making sense is Yellow and the batteries as we find out that’s what he runs off on
Maybe in one of the alternatives loops they’re supposed to be aligned with these objects
Because Duck Guy is supposed to learn to put others before himself, and develop a care for people other then himself, he has to open the bag
The ‘chuddy dees’ is the understanding of wat family means, and so far Duck Guy has been nothing but denying his own family (past life)
If he learns to love the two he is stuck with as if they are like family he can open the chuddle dollops himself
His purpose just makes sense. Like in ‘Jobs’ when Yellow Guy lost his hand, Duck Guy proceeded to do something completely selfless for the care of his friend, and because of this action, out of the other two who played along in jobs he’s the only one who ‘earned his coin’
Red Guy’s purpose is not to be so nonchalant about life. He was paired with the two, but you can notice him and Duck Guy have a good connection. Constantly agreeing with each other and even showed an act of support in ‘Friends’ with Duck Guy (The scene of them trying to get into the computer)
In death, emotionally he can’t express his grief, but instead forces a clay figure to be a replacement for Duck Guy, because he and Yellow Guy can’t go on without him.
In the end Yellow Guy retrieved the shovel and dug up their friend, but this was supposed to be Red Guy’s job.
He needs to come to his emotions and express them greatly, even to go on with this crazy action as to dig up his ‘dead’ friend
Yellow Guy is more of a tag along. He’s supposed to learn about himself as in relating to the ‘David theory’, because he didn’t get a chance to (in his past life)
Though he got it right with the batteries, (going back to the book’s cover) he was supposed to show this sooner (The ‘Friendship’ episode)
With this, if the three can learn their purposes they can get the ‘script’ right and move on to the end, or even towards something bigger.
