you mean brother and tachyon?
Brother and Gemma had a thing once upon a dream.
I know, I know.. i'm in bed.

it makes sense to be about brother and gemma now.

Forever is a tag in both Daniel's new video Bree and I Hooked Up and in Op's new video The Ends Justify The Means

The Dunning-Kruger effect is the phenomenon whereby people who have little knowledge systematically think that they know more than others who have much more knowledge.

Just to expand:

"In four methodologically sound experiments, Kruger and Dunning found that "incompetent individuals" lacked the ability to evaluate how well they were performing, how accurate they were in their judgments, and when they were likely to be in error. The research also suggested that incompetent people, as compared with more competent individuals, 1) tend to grossly overestimate their skills and abilities, 2) are less able to recognize competence when they see it, 3) have less insight about their own level of performance, and 4) can be helped to gain insight about their shortcomings only when they become more competent."

Kind of a backhanded compliment from Oppy to Daniel?

Is there something reversed at the end?

LIke a poster before me, judging by the sound of the static in the video, I'm guessing that Daniel's used a gadget (his cell phone?) to find some kind of interference, thus how he found the camera with the live feed.

What's with the CSI-like zoom on the actress's eye? I didn't want to watch too closely because it kind of creeped me out, ^^;

Um, hello? Does anyone else get the feeling that "Romeo and Juliet" played right into Op's hands and that they are exactly where she wants them to be?

"Well played. But then again, clearly things have not gone according to plan. Or have they?"

So, who's with me in thinking that our pretty boy Jonas is a plant?

Well i'm wondering about that too...
but I think they are leaning more so towards Dad...
Even though it doesn't seem like he was a trap, it seems like maybe Mom let OpAphid know what was about to go down. Either that or they figured out bree's code (which we did...so they did), so they knew Bree was going without anyone stopping her. They got Jonas's car, therefore they have jonas's address.
They know exsactly wehre they are.
Plus...another thing I've been thinking about is maybe they wanted daniel to break into the wearhouse. Then they will have fingerprints and camera evidence that he broke in. Therefore they have an excuse to get the comprimised police officers to go in a retrieve Daniel. They can also get Bree for Runaway, and Jonas for hiding a guilty man...

thats my imagination for you.

My appologies to whomever I bumped into while editing the video page on the aphidpedia.

Here's something I haven't seen brought up yet ... this is the first video with the sound NOT reversed at the end. But the OpAphid letters ARE.

Weird, huh? It must mean something ... Op rarely does something just for S&G.

BTW, THANK GOD OP IS BACK.

i thought that when I first watched it but dismissed it...
but now that your bringing it up (the all mighty panda!!!) maybe it's worth not dismissing.
I take it as...things aren't what they seem type message. But thats just me...
Another thing thats been bugging me...the Daniel thing finding the camera in his room...kind of seems like old news. Something we really didn't need a video about. We more so needed a video about Bree's Dad....
but Op's been away for a while so ... maybe soon she'll post another one to comment on Bree's Dad??
and definately
THANK EVERY GOD THAT YOU CAN GET A HOLD OF THAT OPPY IS BACK..

w00t no more boredom...

If she's showing us that things aren't always what they seem, are we 100% sure that its Daniels bedroom at his parents house?

or are we 100% sure that daniel isn't comprimised now...
or
are we sure Jonas isn't comprimised...

edit:
to add:

are we sure Bree isn't fooling Daniel and Jonas

Can we even be sure that Gemma really is dead?
