Skunkwaffle knew about this already.

How'd you find that? I guess that means he's getting ready to vlog.

Oprah? What ISN'T she running lately? O = Order = Oprah? Maybe there's a clue in her mag...

I did some googling and heres what I found:

The Wyman Foundationis a private, non-profit basic research and educational institution. Under the leadership of our world-renowned staff, some 330 scientists conduct groundbreaking research in cancer, neurobiology, plant genetics and bioinformatics. The Wyman Foundation is one of eight National Cancer Institute-designated basic research centers in the U.S. and the only such center in the San Diego area.

I also found this article/story on the SciFi channel website about someone named isaac gilman

So if he went from a scientist at the Wyman Foundation to Neutrogena.. shouldn't someone inform D-Beast to try to find something there? I mean srsly, I kinda feel like you guys are gonna autmatically shoot me down, but they wouldn't place that there unless we were supposed to know that.

Plus, it explains the product placement.

"Ground-breaking genetic science is such a boring and unfulfilling field-- Where's the glamour? I think I'll go into facial cleansers instead."

WEAK.

Couldn't they just show one of the young beautiful, people that make up the cast USING Neutrogena instead?

I think in the game, the new character will have nothing to do with Neutrogena. The scientist will be a Wyman scientist who out of game, has some connection to neutrogena. I don't think the company will ever be i.g. just because that would mean it becoming way too involved into the story and that would complicate its p.r.. Like...it just wouldn't work.

However, has anybody discussed what the meaning could be behind the C's using two stereotypically Jewish names (Gilman, Wyman???), it may have no relevance whatever, I just thought it was an interesting point.

I'm really hoping this youtube channel is just fanfic.

This I find interesting, however:

http://neutrogena.com/

Neutrogena is promoting "anti-aging". Perhaps Dr. Gillman is doing research on immortality?

And that "Magicians All" annagram. Another Facility J tie-in? The last Facility J puzzle mentioned the "Magician" tarot archetype. Hmmm.

Is that really a canon Isaac Gilman?

Says his age is 22. If the real character is only 22 years old I'll be pretty angry. You cannot be a scientist at 22 years of age. Trust me, I'm 22, have a B.S. in Biology and nobody will hire me as even a Research Technician without a higher degree or YEARS of experience!!!!

22 looks right....

POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT

...

this is from the variety.com article lg15today linked to last night:

"Show's new character, who will make his first appearance Monday and appear in episodes over the next two months, had already been conceived by the show's creators, Miles Beckett and Greg Goodfried, as a 22-year-old scientist who helps the series' lead characters create a serum in order to thwart an evil org known as the Order."
