Pretty sure Sarah and JJ being siblings is like a fan favorite theory😭

[@whoasked6696]

YUPP

[@justinerauch]

yesss

[@styxscorpion4541]

It could definitely turn out to be true even if it wasn't originally supposed to be like that because they haven't disproved it in any way.

[@jiminpov]

@@styxscorpion4541 it would be such a great plot twist (if u could even call it that tbh cause it’s not rlly a plot twist if it’s revealed more like a parallel plot introduction or smth) if that were true like sarah would finally know what it’s like to have a brother that actually cares bout u and loves u and JJ would know what it feels like to have a sister and it would be a perfect gift to the characters bc as of right now they both don’t have a family and they rlly deserve to know what it’s like to be loved by a sibling :( it honestly would be so nice if it were true 😭😭

I’m with you, Madelyn! I desperately want Sarah and JJ to turn out to be siblings somehow. I think that would be such a fun and interesting twist.

[@bryannagutierrez2093]

Right

[@Lemonkrissy]

And find out ward knew about it and jj could have been rich this whole time and paid off jj dad in the show to adopt him

[@jiminpov]

@@Lemonkrissy but luke (jj’s dad) didn’t wanna give him away bc he wanted someone to always be there for him to pick up the broken pieces he broke…. OR he actually scammed ward out of his money on the false promise that he would give up “custody” of jj cause lets be honest here it’s rlly not like luke to refuse money of any kind like at all 😭 oh my god. IT WOULD BE FCKING PERFECT 😭😭 and all of the abuse jj went thru with luke…. oh my goodness! it would be insane broooo

[@vaniamorabito]

hopefully she convinces the writers to add that plot twist

[@kikiiaiakiara]

You could be right, but idk. I think if they are siblings it would be very complicated to explain and we would end up with a very abstract explanation that is so unnecessary at this point. They should have done it before, but remember JJ and Rafe would be siblings too, which is kinda weird

this has been the best interview/promo for this season ive seen they seem back to season 1 selves and just enjoying

[@lunaballesano6410]

All I could think about watching this season (before I even heard the theory) is how much resembles JJ has to Rafe. Their values are polar opposite because of their different childhoods, but their passion and craziness and the way they fight for what they belive in, is so similar. I could definitely see them being half-brothers.

[@Margart526]

Great video, I've always felt so compelled to pursue the greatest interests of mankind, to wit. A way to be influential, powerful and protected. Population control and the need for a singular world order and universal government. the inner me is gasping to find out knowledge about the human race and about the things that not everyone is destined to know. I wish to blossom into the enlightenment that our forebears wanted so desperately for us to gain~

[@ddirtdid]

That feeling is understandable, it's just you been an advanced human. If you really seek enlightenment you can achieve that and so much more by joining the Illuminatus Brotherhood. I know it sounds mythos, but there are ways to get in.
