Rust had a suspicion, but he didn't know for sure and he's the type that's not going to tell something like that without being 100% certain (plus he really didn't want to be involved in their shite).

So... back to my original theory, I still think Tuddle was the original Yellow King but now that we know he's dead in the time where they are interviewing Rust & Marty, I think someone has taken over for him (maybe the Lawnmower Man?)

I think we get to see the yellow king. I think we have not seen him as of yet though. I am sticking by my prediction that this series ends with a shocker in the last 5 minutes of the last episode.

Since Audrey was the daughter who was always doing the drawing / painting does this imply that she might be in the same mental ward as the kidnapped girl? Everyone thinks she is probably dead by now, but maybe she just lost it.

Or the Maggie. One thing is for sure, Marty got some baggage we do not know about, albeit, his wife, daughter, personal, or in-laws. His family is tied to this in some way. I cannot wait to see what that video Rust shows Marty in the preview has in store for us. Marty yells no, and then get out. :rimshot:

I'm beginning to believe that the black preacher from episode 1 is connected. I can't remember his name but the one that explains the devil catchers to Rust and Marty.

In the preview for Ep 7, Rust is showing his book to a lady that tells him "death is not the end, rejoice". Maybe she's the black preachers wife?

We see a close up of Rust in a ninja costume, making me believe he's one of the 3 shown breaking in to a house. I don't think it's Tuttles (he died 2 years before?). 2nd ninja is probably Marty, who's the 3rd one?

From the preview Marty tells rust how crazy his theory sounds, to which Rust says he's got something Marty should look at.

The video has to be proof of Marty's daughter involved in some way. His reaction makes me believe it's personal for him, and he decides to help Rust.

Agree. I think Maggie and her dad are involved. My recollection is that Maggie did not seem overly concerned with Audrey's drawings, depictions, etc, and even when she was caught in the car with 2 boys as a teenager, she was very measured in her response.

Now that someone has connected the mural in the pysch ward with the picture in Maggie's room, it seems even more likely she is involved in some way.

I'm starting to think Maggie may have spent time in the psych ward herself. Her dad described an intolerance for children that act out. How old was Maggie when she met/married/had kids?

I didn't say that, but I had a tendency to view her as pretty straightforward until the last episode. Now I believe she's got shite to hide like everyone else.

Marty's whole family is off the hook.

I think its highly possible the Yellow King is not a person, but the actual Ritual that this cult goes through. Once you see it performed you go crazy and are never the same again

I believe so too but there has to be a ringleader. I also believe you were 1000% right about me being wrong about Marty. He has his faults but he's not evil.

We very much look through the glass darkly at this point. We simply do not have enough info on the Yellow King. I am preparing my body for not knowing for sure until the very end. Even then I am preparing for a twist that really screws with you and leaves you hanging.

I think Rust confronts Tuttle and mind fricks him into killing himself in 2010.
