I think it being a simple puzzle (for these guys anyway) is understandable since this is one of the few times this sort of thing has been done in the vlogs as opposed to the spy vids.

I agree. Bree's dad sounded EXACTLY like Brother to me; if he hadn't claimed to be the father, I would never have assumed it was anyone but Brother.

Reasons I am positive that whoever it is, it is NOT Bree's father (some of these were good ideas from the chat, some are my own):

-Bree's dad would have had to set up this special means of communication before he disappeared. As girlAnachronism pointed out, "Few people plan out an 'incase my religious leaders kidnap me- phone the number hidden in this message'"

-The speaker on the message said that Bree's parents were safe...but that he wanted to meet her alone. Now, if Bree's parents have settled things with the Order and are truly safe, then they should be able to ask Bree to come home openly. If they haven't and they're on the run too, then trying to meet with Bree will just put them all in danger. It would make much more sense for them to just want to know Bree is alive and well. And Bree's "dad" wants to meet her alone? That doesn't sound like the action of a father; it sounds like the action of an enemy.

And another question...where did Bree get this long list of relatives and friends spread across the globe, especially for people she'd never met before? I simply do not believe that they all miraculously posted their phone numbers on the internet...

i was thinking maybe some of the phone numbers bree got from the letter her parents left for her.

Remember, it wasn't intended as much for our little ARG clique here as the mass LG15 audience.

The Creators knew they'd get a shitstorm of hate from the rancor cove crew if they tried to do anything that was a real ARG with LG15. Those goons already trash Op and Tach enough in the Concerns/Complaints forum here (and their entire message board seems strangely negative against the whole thing they were such big fans of in the first place that they started their own website around it).

This was probably meant to be an LG15 bonus more than anything else (as I am sure Bree will figure it out in a video later this week).

But the promising thing from our end is that it shows how intertwined OpAphid/Tachyon are becoming behind the scenes. I mean, this Bree video even kind of explained Op's Cassie videos in a way!

I think this is a really good sign for what the future holds! The more collaboration they have, the better for everyone in telling a bigger and more interesting story.

I bet he's referring to the famous physisist Richard Feynman. Bree talked about how smart Feynman was in one of her early vids, and she has a pic of him on her myspace page. http://www.lonelygirl15.com/lgpedia/ind ... le=Feynman

You betcha. :)


And it's definitely Feynman the physicist, in my opinion.

I think it's The Creators way of giving us CiW followers some kind of closure.

What that means is that in the Breeniverse, CiW was an extension of Cassie's prank calls. Cassie liked to mess with people, and she started using YouTube, probably once she saw Bree on there, as a means to get back at Bree a little (and mess with us, Bree's newfound friends).

CiW ended when Cassie went too far, got bored, or realized we knew Bree was okay post October 12th.

But the awesome part of this is that whatever we thought we knew about Cassie is 100% null and void.

All we knew was what she wanted us to see to mess with us.

For all we know, she is a normal, girl next door with a hidden dark side.


This totally disregards Frank and everything we know about Frank having made Cassie's videos. This is not closure in any way.

You're definitely right. Wishful thinking on my part! So...Jared Diamond and Richard Feynman.

Yeah, unless Frank was still Cassie, like her creation.

Or maybe he was just someone affiliated with her prank? An older guy named Frank that she let touch her boobs or something who would buy her wine coolers?

Sorry, totally getting shades of Wooderson here...
