Weddings always bring up the haze of recollection - after all, unless your family is very small, you can't be expected to know or remember all your relations, right? So we can forgive Lawrence for not recognising his cousin - just an honest mistake, nothing untoward going on at all...
...
And yet... the tales of strange doppelgangers continue, as the Archivist goes looking for one statement and finds a different but related one. The familiar, the family and the unfamiliar are coming to a confluence... One that happens to shed some more light on a growing problem he fears. And fear is very much a driving force here. It leads us to make decisions under duress. Decisions about tables... and doors.
The strands are coming together but the web is tangled. Who do we trust? What do we know? And what do they want?
Anyone care to hazard a guess as to where we're heading?

I wonder if Sims is starting to realise that every 40 or so recordings something really terrible happens. If I were him, around tape 110 I'd be arming myself and everyone around me, and trying to source a giant underground bunker on the moon...
Wow, what an episode to come back to! I feel like the spiders may be like the antibodies of the real world: sealing away things that could do harm, and providing power for those of neutrality. We've seen them eating the worms, being involved in this table and working against those of fire. I've been a bit out of touch with the podcast recently (woo going on safari!), but how likely does this sound?
I don't think Micheal is as neautral as he wants to appear. He's helped the Institute on more than one occasion now, I'm really interested in what his motives are.
Also, who is Decker? Have we heard of him before? I'd look on the wiki, but the idiot who maintains it hasn't bothered updating since episode 60.

Hey now, it's only happened once so far - if the Archivist hasn't noticed by season 5 we can be worried!
I'll raise that antibody theory up a flagpole and salute it. While I was also a fan of the theory that the Changeling (as we can clearly call the Not-Person when it's not-people) was in some way spider-related, it's looking impossible - Fielding and his table had a connection with spiders for years before Decker the Reassuringly Competent Exorcist bound the Changeling to it.
Jonny mentioned in one of the Q&As that it's tricky to unite horror and mystery going forwards. I think it's worth mentioning that the finale to this episode was as terrifying as episode 1 or episode 40, despite far more context, so the team are clearly knocking it out of the park!
I'm looking forward to the road trip through the labyrinth dimension that Jonny and Mickey will clearly be going on next week.

I'd watch Sam Jackson as the Archivist.
"Your statement, mutha****er. Will you make it?!"

Oh God.
I just noticed that MAG 3 takes place EXACTLY 15 years after MAG 78.
That table was a time bomb, which begs the question... who was Graham Folger watching out for?
