My “investigation” into Bandersnatch
Guys LISTEN TO ME THE OWNER OF THE BOOK JUST MURDERED ME IM GETTING CLOSE TO SOLVING THE STORY GIVE ME A LITTLE MORE TIME ILL UPDATE THE POST LATER IM SO CLOSE
I'm still on it nonstop, well till now, so the TLDr is depending on how you go about the ending gives and alternate to the alternate endings and I'm going through so many different scenarios I'm on my 7th playthrough currently and what I'm finding is I know I'm doing good when a weird alien changes the normal scene. So I'm hoping through trial and error I will find the correct path to get the actual ending no one expected.
So on PS4 Netflix it tells you what time you at based on the scene your in, I'm going to make all scenes according to their time and see if I still get the Alien to follow me hopefully that will get me the true ending
Last ipdate3:34 pmPacific standard time GUYS I THINK I CRACKED IT IM GETTING CLOSE READ THE **** FOR INFO Will this make front page? The **** is the line breaks I just made another breakthrough With most black mirror episodes your left with a what the freak feel at the end and this one as I’ve went through just about every ending does give that just about yet. But I have a weird feeling that’s there’s a ending where you win and get away with it and I believe it has to do with the number you use to call the doc here my timeline notes and yes there sloppy but when I figure it out(if there’s anything to figure out) I’ll update it with clean notes and timelines
But here it is and please if you are thinking on the same lines let me know and tell me what you think

Sugar puffs
Now 2
I will update after my third watch but here’s a theory that’s I believe is solid
Mike/Stefan dad is in a bandersnatch as well but at the beginning of the episode he just buried the body. Notice the dog digging and he said that if he keeps it up it will be the death of them. Two when he goes to shake his sons hands in the scene prior he had nothing on his hands when he put the cigarette in the ash tray but 2 seconds after when he wants to congratulate his son he now has stuff on his hands that can very well be from a body. Or as Mike/Stefan says “men’s juice??”
Spoiler Also I say Mike/Stefan because if you choose yes on that fight scene you get sent to a part where they yell cut and the camera pans out and the director on set calls Stefan mike and he freaks out and another reset happens
I’ll update it when I’m done. And the reason I’m looking this deep is because one scene the lady says “just start over again.” Meaning to me something is to be found.
I dislocated my knee real bad last week so I have time xD
Back again
No,no to skip a lot of story and the commentary isn’t directed to Stefan it’s to us the viewer. We’re constantly told to just call the doc
The Bermuda Triangle do our music choices effect us in any way?
Talk to Dr
No talk about my mom
Pull earlobe

Visit Dr.Haynes
New Story line He tell her he remembers this happening already and how she ups his dose and everything and tells her to write the prescription again.
NEW STORY LINE AGAIN he goes to show his boss his game then he tells him it’s due first thing Monday like usual and the (crash screen looks suspicious,qr code maybe?) but after Collin says “skip to the next bit.” Stefan-“What” Collin-“I’ll skip it for you.” Claps and it skips to him watching the jfd video.
(The guy who packages nozhdive is looking suspicious)
I picked up book again.
Did jfd again
Incorrect password and weirdo shows up again
Reset
“Whose there”
Weird symbol
(There’s a screenshot I need to see so I’m going to reset this same loop one more time on that screen)
So please don’t mind the same commands
Back off
Reset
No I’m forced to follow Collin
I feel like now I’m correctly in the hole at the right time.
Yes and take the drug I think I'm getting Collins number in this drug scene 21115
211111
I think I need Collin so I'm killing myself I think the beat in the music may be the code possibly he said he given me everything I need and I need to listen for the code
But I'm not going to use the ones I think I heard it's not concrete enough
Four months later
2.5 again
I'm going to kill myself again He said he gave me everything I need and Pacman watches himself die so I'll watch myself die again and again
This is the one of the few timelines that let's me do the same thing again and again makes the user feel like ur in a timeloop yourself
Ok 6 times later .choosing Colin to die
Ok I think I'm getting to something I need to choose every time line that has a monster or weirdo in it for me to win I think
I'm now forced to talk to Dr. Haynes
Again he repeats and now we're again back at the office where the weirdo is packing up Nohzdyve
So instead of Collin showing up and clapping away this time I'm back to the normal scene where I get the jfd video again
OMG! I THINK I GET IT They want me to murder my dad they want me to think that's the only way out but I keep refusing to and it's giving me new story lines.
I feel like it's one of the black mirror episodes where they put you in a fake reality to make you confess your crime.... I think that's why the jfd video keeps saying why not commit murder your not in control. I'm going to keep it up.
Book again
PAX
Incorrect Password!

Okay so I stopped mapping everything because my iPad died and now I'm on my phone
Colin drugs 4:10/5:12 Once he dies the time went back to 56:49 Weird I'm confused to how all this ties in together
OKAY I GOT A NEW BREAKTHROUGH I DID A NEW ORDER AND AFTER COLIN JUMPS OFF THE ROOF THE MONSTER LITERALLY CHARGES AT ME I HAVE 3/5 SCENES CORRECT ORDER I BELIEVE IM ALMOST THERE GUYS
Okay what I remember for Colin's jump
Start with the normal but as soon as Netflix comes up hit Netflix and try to avoid following collin
Do Netflix
Then come out and choose the picture
Then do Netflix again and jump out the window
Now it forces you to follow colin
And the monster jumps out but will this disrupt the other monster appearances
