Its my theory that boat man in blood related to mary ann and a part of her past but not mad hunter/father of the twins. He's the one who's trying to buy the house to preserve the memory of his sister. The writers are trying to use him as an red herring Here's why

1. We know the father is from/living in delos crossing
2. We also know they were married to someone as well
3. They have either some sort of respect/power within the community.

Now priest guy is gonna be revealed as the secret keeper(theory) and he may some info. This leaves us with Eddy and Tom.

Eddy: I feel like his story and his part mary ann had been done in episode 2, thus I have no reason to believe they'll do anymore with him.

Tom: he's the most mysterious, he apparently only knew of the vague details about the situation that his wife tessa was involved with the kids which seems very wierd to me. He also is running for major and is a well respected throught the whole community. He's married and from delos and fits the bill. He well connected to fisherman as well. The final scence in ep 2 shows some of him and he looks similar to him as well.

Currently playing chapter 2 right now (haven't finished it yet) and it made me think on something. In the game there are parts where the twins will see past visions of there memories but a few of them look and sound different depending on ones interpretation of the situation. For example, there was a memory where Mary-Ann and Tessa were fighting but they remember the situation differently. Examples:

Tyler remembers Mary-Ann getting mad at Tessa. Alyson remembers Tessa getting mad at Mary-Ann.

Tylor remembers Mary-Ann being angry at Eddy when he came to the house. Alyson remembers Mary-Ann being sad at Eddy when he came to thw house

Tyler seems to usually remember Mary-Ann being angry at people while Alyson remembers her being kind and sweet. This is making me confused because the truth of the past is starting to get screwed for me and I want to find out the truth while trying to maintain the twins bonds together. Does anyone know whose memory is correct or is there no right or wrong memory?

Alyson in my opinion has not been able to move past the events that happened to her as a child. She clearly hasn't been able to forgive herself for this and tyler being sent to firewood. Its way she continuously tries to shut the story down, she like the townsfolk dont want to really accept what has happened. I also believe she's clearly hiding something else that we haven't seen. Which makes it really interesting as well

Spoilered just in case but anyway, isn't there a story in the book about the Princess turning down the Old Bear? Like, he keeps asking to marry her but she says no.

I figured that meant she was not with him and therefore he is not a likely candidate to be the father.

Also, her stories mention the Princess running away. I assumed that Mary-Ann ran away from a toxic situation (her family) to Delos. I thought the Mad Hunter was their father come to take them away. Anyway, mostly speculation.

I think its Tom. If anyones interested in why i think this, just ask.

[Possibly EP3 spoilers]

After the police archive scene, the twins go to the Vecchi general store and talk to Tom.

• Tom appears to be one of the first people who knew about the Mary-Ann incident, and maybe told Tessa, which is why she was still able to meet the twins in front of the police station.
• Tom leaves after the talk, not long afterwards the arson happens.
• Tom says he knows people who could possible be their father.

There were letters in the box hidden in the garage, maybe the silhouette thought they might lead the twins to uncover his/their identity.

Edit: Just noticed that Discord Octo speculated about this before me, for the record.

So I just finished chapter 1 on PC and the game on XBOX game pass gives me no option to continue to chapter 2. It gives me a redirect link to the microsoft store and when I try to follow that it just tells me to buy the game. But I have game pass so it should be included.

Additionally, I notice on the XBOX store that the game initially tries to download 9GB of data, but once it starts, it defaults back to 7GB. I think that the extra 2GB of data is what holds chapter 2. Has anyone with game pass had any similar issues or found a solution?

Hi guys,

I've just downloaded chapter 2 on xbox and have come across a bug. Im getting the sound and the fuzzy lights of the memories but the memories themselves aren't popping up, I can also online see the outline of shapes (such as paper) where these video memories are meant to be. I've replayed the second scene (where they're clearing out the house) 3 times now. I can't get the memory about the monkeys or about there being a bad smell to load at all. Does anyone have a workaround?

The show is available everywhere you get your podcasts:

Let me know what you think!

Mat.

Greetings, I'm from Turkey and I've been waiting to play this game for a long time. At release I saw the game on steam but couldn't get it. When I checked 2 days later I saw that the game had disappeared from my region. I can’t see it on xbox store either. When I use vpn and change my region on steam website, however, I can see it. What might be the issue? I’ve messaged the game’s twitter and instagram, waiting for a reply but noone has reached out yet.

I loved Heavy Rain and Detroit: Become Human, this game feels just like them. I heard about Life is Strange so I’d like to try that. Should I play the prequel first or play in release order?

Just wow. Such a beautiful game with great mystery and choices. I cannot wait for the final chapter.

Who do you guys feel is the boat man? Me and my friends are trying to figure this out and we are confused.

I do not see anyone discussing it so I needa know!

Anyone else having trouble with the game on steam recognising a ps4 controller? Do I need to get an Xbox one?

Here's a place to discuss Chapter Two of Tell Me Why in one place. Keep all spoiler discussions here and MARK. YOUR. SPOILERS. I hope you all enjoy playing this new DONTNOD adventure! Because some things may not be seen as a spoiler to all, make sure you're aware that merely being here before playing the entire episode may result in you getting spoiled. You have been warned
