I love how with the nature of podcasts this is the first real indication we get that Not-Sasha actually looks different than Sasha, and with that comes the confirmation that Something is making it so that no one at the institute has noticed that change.

[@CytheriaXylia]

Some people in other comments have pointed out that it might be specifically Melanie King that can see that Not-Sasha is different. I was going to say it would make sense since Basira and Daisy never mentioned it, but I don't believe they ever actually met Sasha until after Not-Sasha took over. Gonna stick with my guts for now and say it's their close and daily proximity to the table that's making everyone at the institute not notice.

[@ot7biasedmashups]

​@@hollynotholy I think it's rather that the not entity can't change the memories of a person who directly witnessed them take over.

However, not Sasha didn't know that Melanie saw Sasha before

[@kehlcassidy9562]

I wonder what happened to RealSasha and RealGraham. Like, are they dead, or? Are they still in there somehow? Or trapped somewhere? Or? I liked RealSasha :'[

[@evagrev7351]

My theory from this episode and what we know so far: Of course it was that smirke's building. I knew it from the start it would have something to do with him or his students, mostly from how there is something underground that is not used nor built nor have access to from the drain system or something of the city. And I'm sure the priest and the others the witness saw weren't actually part of the above church, but were part of the below supernatural church, which is why the ones at the church didn't remember the witness; because they never saw her. The priest took the camera because there was evidence there of the existence of the dark entity, though it sounds more like lots of dark entities, all being part of the same entity like Michael and that maze were part of the spiral entity. As for miss king, the "new girl" she said is probably not!sasha, so she can see the difference like the witness could with not!graham. I don't know if it was on purpose here as with not!graham (I believe the not-entity knew that the witness was watching graham like it, so it on purpose didn't change her memories of him, and probably even did the change while she was watching, in order to have fun with her. I mean, what the not!graham had told her about with all the looking they didn't know how close they were with each other, I believe it wasn't about graham and her living so close but about it watching graham at the same time as her but her not noticing it, you know?) so maybe there are rules or limitations about the not-people's powers with memory change. Since she'll be coming more often to the institute for the library, I believe miss king will be a major factor of finding out that Sasha was replaced with not!sasha.

Theres micheal and the beings like him which idk tbh but i think they are related to madness Theres the guy at the slaughter house and the i think its well killing and slaughtering This next category is messy but i think its actually 2 seprate ones The fear of like rotting meat and bugs is aligned with jane prentiss and the fear of being eaten and flesh and just body horror The fear of spiders and being controled is with hilltop road and the table And finally this one bugged me but last episode it comfired it with mary keay the these entities have names and the one with death and the ww2 guy and the guy who cheated death and the guy who could see peoples death is tied to what mary keay called the end?

SHE LITTERALY DOESNT NOTICE SASHSA ANYMORE. WHICH IS REAL BECAUSE SHES LITTERALY CHANGED SO MUCH BUT HER OWN FRIENDS WONT NOTICE.

[@ironbarsjack7977]

Who was that at the end?

[@ilovebooks49]

Melanie King, the ghost hunting youtuber

[@simonstern2572]

Seso one skin tight

[@amyshaw893]

Hey, who turned out the lights?

[@wiktoriarynkun3673]

"Everyone always forgets how much London is under London. I mean, it’s not as bad as somewhere like Edinburgh, where they literally buried half the city and built a new one on top" Me, being from Warsaw, Poland: heh, yeah... half the city's pretty bad...

[@Im_Not_Loss]

That title baited me hard

[@jojoceda]

Well, that was dark

[@frogonthebikeheh]

Melanie remembers real Sasha

[@cantaloupegodling352]

"The new girl"??? Nobody correct me if I'm wrong but I'm certain she doesn't recognise Not!Sasha, this has to be relevant. Oh also, I didn't hear the name but for some reason I still assumed the statement giver was a woman my Gaydar is unmatched.

[@evananderson7728]

'Weve spoken once and we ended up screaming at each other.' 😂

[@thestarprince]

“The new girl let me in” the where, what, who now? …not!sasha?

[@yog-sothothussy]

"her wife-" YEAH YEAH YES FUCK YEAH

[@imgeniusish]

"he wanted to get out of there, sure, but apparently not as much as he wanted to make rent, so on we went" damn if that isnt a depressing summary of most of our lives

[@KeKe-bv8qv]

10:42 sent shivers down my spine.

[@owoiestplaguedoctor]

I'm assuming that John and everyone can't realize she's not!sarah due to how they effect the outside world. Now people out of the archives are able to because they don't know Sarah and Not sarah had no reason to mess with their memories/minds.

[@K.Arashi]

now i want to rewatch the doctor who vashta nerada episode

[@KeKe-bv8qv]

So Erin got her brother in law killed... I wonder what Melanie saw at the train graveyard?

[@nyxie2877]

Homophobic vase and now homophobic darkness, what’s next? Homophobic trees?

[@kehlcassidy9562]

In fairness, the darkness took her brother in law, of the opposite gender, not her wife...

Nunca mais ando no escuro

[@liolokk5248]

so fake Sasha doesn't look like Sasha, but everyone except one person thinks she does... and Sasha died next to table from second episode.... so I think it's obvious that it's the same creature? I was thinking that was the case anyway, since they have different voices, but now we have confirmation that they also look different

[@goosesquared]

WAITWAIT WAIT MELANIE SAID "THE NEW GIRL". SASHA, WAS SHE TALKIGN ABOUT SASHA.

[@wonderwhatsgonnahappen579]

The new girl? Jon. Really 😑? Thats literally a red line of suspension.

[@witch_in_a_wheelchair3050]

So, um, I thought about this in the last episode, but is the police woman's name Viscera? Because I looked it up, and it means intestines... and I just am freaked out by her now.

[@watson483]

Her name is Basira, an Arabic name meaning wise

[@basil1032]

2:38 Excuse me but was that a Neverwhere reference?

[@baiaaaaa]

the darkness said gay rights✊

[@azrielspringer546]

Second creepiest episode.
