Watchers are good; Jonas is OpAphid; Gemma is the Order

I have to leave soon and will be back tonight, so I'll make this as quick as I can.
My guess:
Watchers are good.
1. Gemma doesn't say they're the Order in "A Watcher." She says that's a possibility OR that "a modern version of them [Knights of the Round Table]." The "modern version" thing is rushed in the video, as if she wants you to miss it, and I didn't notice it until I read the transcript.
2. Presumably, they knew where Bree and Daniel were for days. Yet they did nothing. They're "watchers," and not "taker-awayers." They didn't take them when they had the chance. I assume that's not what they want to do, then.
Jonas is OpAphid
1. I don't buy OpAphid is the Order or that they're Watchers. I can't imagine those characters sitting around editing videos. What purpose?
2. Jonas has editing equipment and lots of free time. Has the technical ability to make the videos.
3. Jonas has the motivation. He wants company. He's obsessed. He doesn't need the money, but he wants them to run out of money so they'll stay with him.
4. He, as OpAphid, would be using the Watcher symbol in the video to mislead us and possibly scare people into thinking they need to leave the hotel.
Gemma is the Order
1. This is the weakest of my guesses.
2. Gemma would be trying to convince Bree and Daniel that Watchers are bad. I think it's impossible for Gemma to have made out the Watcher symbol on the hand from that one video.
3. She certainly has the background that would make it possible.
4. Problem: But then why wouldn't she want Bree to stay with Jonas? That makes this possibility problemmatic.
Notes:
1. Remember, the guy who was there taking away Bree's parents was a Deacon, not a Watcher, according to what Bree thought.
2. Had they not ditched the Watcher, would OpAphid been able to break in and steal stuff?
3. Did Bree's parents call the Watchers and have them watch over Bree? They certainly took the step of hiding stuff in P Monkey.
4. Or do the Watchers simply have something against the Order, and this is simply a side-project? This could explain IF (and that is an if) it's true that the person that was at the Ceremony was a Watcher. I doubt this, though. And by the way, who wears sunglasses at night?
5. More stuff I'll address another time. I've got to go. But I'll just point out that if one of these is wrong, the others can be right independently.
