the first video we have had in a while that might have come from the guys themselves, though i am writing this on my first viewing, so this may change.
the video starts with Evan filming Vince talking about this wifi thing that connected with the hidden cameras.
the video then cuts to the rocking horse found in the storage facility shown in Vince's basement on the hidden camera footage. the horse is rocking gently.
the video continues to distort, and we see the trio enter the basement, searching for the hidden cameras. there is no sound at this point.
we also see jeff, apparently alive after the hinted suicide of HALLOWEEN HANGOVER, though we have yet to see his face.
then Vince disconnects the camera and the video cuts.
Vince is the talking about logging the cameras, and where he found the first one.
the camera is placed on the table, and we finally see Jeff's healthy but none too happy face, apprently unharmed. he is talking about "those emails" which i can only speculate are from HABIT.
Jeff goes on to explain that these emails were just deleted, not consciously by him, but 3 weeks of messages were gone. this is presumably the work of HABIT, stopping the gang from recieving outside help.
Evan is not happy with the deletion, and Jeff argues that "you dont know what happened with Nick" with the video cutting to Evan breaking Nick's neck at Baldpate Mountain, shown in the previous video.
a slight argument ensues, and Vince defuses the situation, stating that Evan "of all people should know" that everyone has had their off moments. Evan just chuckles and agrees.
Vince then says that these people are their main source at the moment, and that they cannot afford to lose contact with them. it isnt entirely clear whether they are talking about a singular person, or the viewers, or someone else entirely, but this does seem like the group trying to draw people back, trying to re-establish themselve and remake the links they had with the fans. it looks like they want to bring the interactivity back to EMH. though as i explained in my last blog update, this is a dangerous game that they are playing, and some people may not be up to it anymore.
the video then cuts to Vince, having downloaded an app that allows them to search for wifi devices, and then following the directions of the app. following it outside.
they find a hidden camera in a removable panel outside.
perhaps an attempt to bring back the funny to the series, Vince brings out what he has found, and when he proclaims that he found something, the "found something" music from The Legend Of Zelda plays, being Jeff's ringtone....yep.
we then see that this footage is the fragmented piece of footage first shown at the beginning of the video. the device is a wifi enabled hard drive, that would theoretically record and store all data from the hidden cameras. i'm guessing maybe they might be seeing what Evan did to Nick?
the video then ends.
this seems to be a "we are not dead" update, and there is no accompanying tweet.
it is nice to see the series trying to make a comeback, but the break may have been too long for most people, and once again, we are given fresh plot points, without any deep information into them, and no elaboration on past details.
hopefully this is the beginning of regular updates, i really do hope so.
this video feels like something they needed to do to tie various details into the plot, something that had to be shot to do some explaining and whatnot. hopefully, we will get a proper update from the guys soon enough. there is still not concrete evidence that the group uploaded this video.
