[FNaF Theory] The 3rd Partner

[@Can_handles_be_edited]

Interesting theory. This third partner could also be the CEO mentioned in the FNAF1 newspaper clippings.

[@Insert12]

Hmmmm... intresting sir

[@ili-h]

CEO is Henry

[@ryandyer3466]

It might be Fritz Smith on night 5 of FNaF 2 Phone Guy mentions tracking down the owners of Fredbear’s Family Diner. Funnily enough the name Fritz was originally a nickname of Fredrick

[@wynterwolfrose228]

👀😳 interesting

[@Sr_Noir]

Well, Phone Guy's name is Ralph. So, no

[@frostyink7929]

I think this theory video is pretty good, and you could be on to something, but at the same time, if there were a 3rd person alongside Henry and William, I think it could be confusing on why we didn't here about this 3rd party yet, but I would say that it could be very interesting, and I don't think it could move out the possibility.❤🤔😊❤❤❤❤❤

[@raysandrarexxia941]

Could be Edwin idk, or Phone guy for some weird shenanigans.

[@AustinPlayzNothing]

Phone guys dead and Edwin doesn’t exist

[@alopanconpan29]

​​@@AustinPlayzNothing just accept that the books are canon bro

[@AustinPlayzNothing]

@@alopanconpan29 there aren’t there are so many contradicting factors and no theorist (theorizing is their career btw) believes they are cannon

[@iamtheautism]

@@alopanconpan29the books are not confirmed in game continuity and if the into the pit game ends up being cannon that’s more proof it’s not because there’s a ton of evidence that doesn’t line up together

[@alopanconpan29]

@@AustinPlayzNothing well , in fnaf 2 the puppet soul is a kid but in fnaf 6 now is a girl , in fnaf 3 people thinks that the protagonist is mike but it nevers confirm , in fnaf 4 in gameplay we hear the fnaf 1 call but if its happens in the 83's then that doesn't be possible

[@Deevster]

If Freddy was around back in the 70s alongside Fredbear and Spring Bonnie, appears in the Cake minigame from FNAF 2, and is a springlock suit, I think the only other person who would know about them would be phone guy, though this is a stretch considering that Phone Guy doesn't even know what Fredbear's is in the FNAF 2 phone calls.

[@Boolets-qv2nd]

He recorded the tapes for the springlock suits though, it could be him

[@Poja_0811]

​@@Boolets-qv2nd or maybe not, they could just have the same voice, or maybe he's faking ignorance

[@akpen8755]

Stripping everything down and reexamination is exactly what the fan base needs to do. I only ever got into this franchise because I liked the Sci fi direction it started going with Sister Location as I never found it interesting before that. I have appreciation for that stuff now but still I like the goofy aspects and just wanted to see where the franchise went the more insane the better. But even still consuming/enjoying something for this long no matter the reason you start to get invested and I think people are too focused on the perceived details rather than what is actually shown and try to reverse engineer things to fit the "true intent" rather than actually look at things from a further perspective. Love seeing stuff like your channel and the reexamination of the logbook that has been going on recently. It's just refreshing

[@mrghost545]

It could’ve went to Sammy Emily, Henry’s estranged son, in the books when Henry’s wife left him she took Sammy with her in the wake of Charlie’s death, and if the books are parallel to the games, then that could mean Sammy is still alive and out their and would be about middle aged come the 2020s and would be a living realitve of one of the two owners with the assets going to Sammy, idk jus some food for thought, great theory tho! Keep up the work sexy man 💯

[@zenvariety9383]

If Henry did have another kid or two I wouldn't be surprised if they reveal that Gregory is Henry's grandson. Yet if that's the case it would be interesting if they reveal that Vanessa is William Afton's great niece if the bully in the Freddy Mask is Vanessa's dad. Yet I think more would need to be revealed. Yet it's not uncommon for extended family to inherit stuff from estranged family members.

[@markofabecic6824]

I'd actually say 1st Freddy's restaurant and Fredbear's family diner are in same building and same time. 70s Freddy poster probably shows unwithered Freddy who is the cakebear. Like it's stated, Fredbear's was first Freddy's location and that doesn't imply Fredbear's existed before Freddy's, it can simply mean they are connected and under same establishment at the same time.

[@pinkyoshi9339]

But, Freddy's opened in 1983, and Fred bear's was around since the 70s

[@joshuamcgonagle5455]

In the Talbert Files, there was a third partner named Emmett Tucker who built the Mediocre Melodies (specifically Happy Frog) for his daughter Cassidy because her favorite color was green. maybe Emmett is the third partner and Cassidy actually has a LOT more connections to Fredbear's than we initially thought.

[@dorianbirchall]

1. They're springlock suits specifically so they can be put on endos functionally, so they don't need a 3rd person. 2. The listing was meant for a random person because Henry heard that Mike died after SL since no one knew he possessed himself.

[@MigBu_Animations2011]

I Have an head cannon that henry is the guys in the bear suit in the minigame save him.

[@Purplemans88]

Squire squawks (or however you spell that) made a theory based on that idea! You should check it out if you haven’t seen it already

[@Wiworgsh273]

I think Cakebear doesn't even need to be another partner. The posters of Freddy in Fredbears could just explain why there is a springlock Freddy suit (Cakebear) assuming Cakebear is a springlock suit and isn't Fredbear

[@Candjstudios2024]

Guys, it's literally just Unwithered Freddy. Also, it is implied in an arg that the restaurant was funded by a mysterious man in a green shirt. Some people are even theorizing that he's either omc or grimm foxy for some reason.

[@mubestvideos586]

But if you see the paper pals from FNaF 2, u can see that the third partner was a humanoid character.

[@_TheGoofball_]

I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be balloon boy. Balloon boy is humanoid, so..

[@candicechristinabravo8359]

The third was probably the puppet

[@MxMe-su1ch]

I think it is Edwin, and that he is the inventor of endoskeletons. Without him, the Freddy's IP was solely costumes, animatronics, and springlock suits. Edwin was the true genius, and the other two basically stole his brainchild.

[@BlankEmporium]

That would be a massive spit in the face of fans. Like, imagine the Dark Knight trilogy except it's revealed in the Dark Knight Rises that Lucius Fox didn't built the Bat tech but instead some random guy named Brian who was never mentioned before.

[@MxMe-su1ch]

@BlankEmporium I'm not so sure I agree, because there are three distinct technological elements in FNAF lore. Animatronics, or robots without AI. Springlock suits, and endoskeletons. This could also set up The Mimic as the original endoskeleton. I can understand you feeling like it is poor writing, but I think it expands and refines the lore myself.

[@zenvariety9383]

​@@MxMe-su1chNever played the games or read the books, but I'm certain that they'll need to adapt some of the newer books into games to flesh out the story. Not everyone will read the books. Not to mention adapting the books into games could add more context.

[@youtucraft5554]

Pretty good theory!

[@CreeperokGames]

You know what would be funny? What if we used the theory about S. Freddy in fnaf 3 minigames is a suit worn and add that it was the crumpled cakebear/Freddy's suit. In that case William could be in every owner's suits(I believe that W. G. Freddy was used in DCI for it to be true).

[@wynterwolfrose228]

I would pose the idea that Freddy in the take cake mini game is just Freddy from the first game but I can’t deny the 70’s Freddy being in existence but what if I brought up fall fest and 70’ Freddy being just an animatronic/ suit a person is in to take ice cream to kids at the event. We do have a fall fest 1970 poster and 70’s Freddy would fit

[@thebuddycompany2252]

You know, freddy may just be a irrelevant employee with a prototype springlock freddy suit, and the job was intended for the last living afton Edit: Michael was thought to by dead

[@gucciganglilaku]

Quite late but amazing theory

[@lwes4]

in my mind this theory been a thing since five night four thing that never get brought up like ever about the box is it locked by two locks now why would that be if just something Afton has? two lock mean two key two key mean the two owner's, will and henry... i think what was in that box bow was not some secret about the kid, but the secret about Tech, the third partner, the one will and henry probably cut out of the business and probable had something to do with upcoming secret of the mimic 1979 event. and there is some ofther evidence's some would jump to Edwin (and i think there good chance he will shair that name) but there has been another story the puppet carver implied something at one point what that point is i do not recall. also factor in story chucky cheese and bear company and how it story that revloved around three peaple, (founder chucky cheeses and animatronic builder, the founder about the animatronic company, CC ceo tried to higher and the business man that nearly partnered with CC Ceo but then then hired the animatronic company and built his won brand) it fits.

[@abdel-azizs5720]

I read the title is the third printer

[@SomeonesBestFriend11_SBF]

A franchise is something you buy, the first restaurant ISN'T Fredbears, whichbmight men tht William and Henry may bot have been rhe creators, or theu wete and soneone else bought a franchise to make Fredbear's

[@Purplemans88]

I want to hear you out but I can’t tell what in tf your saying

[@BeLustig]

Say what?

[@Boolets-qv2nd]

@@Purplemans88 What he means is that william and henry may have bought out the fredbear and springbonnie characters

[@SalvatoreBrancaccio-og4id]

I think that the third partner was phone guy

[@УкраїнаПовнаАнімацій]

You sound like phone guy XD

[@dylanhudec979]

It could be the lame mimic 🙄
