They Stole Max's Brain! Speculation Thread!

[justaguy]

How many of the Sam & Max titles have had blatantly misleading titles? Seriously... I can't remember any that didn't prove true in light of the events in the game. I think we can safely lay to rest this idea that Max's brain wasn't stolen. The title is 'They stole Max's Brain" so it seems fairly clear to me that his brain was in fact stolen by someone or something.

Male geometric shape with growing beard/anger/wildness. ;O)

wtf?

[taumel]

I was bored whilst watching the football game and had to think of Sam's beard.

I don't think we've ever gone suddenly off topic as badly as this...

WHO CAN'T WAIT?!?!?!?

Wow this week went fast, but now it's too slow... Bring on the game!

Okay. I've figured everything out. I posted this somewhere else, but basically, this is my theory about WHO STOLE MAX'S BRAIN.

Let's proceed logically.

The way I see it, it can't be the most obvious person. Because that's too obvious, and then the game would be ruined because we'd all have guessed it already, and we'd all complain about how much it sucked. Since that's what fans do.

So it probably won't be Sal or Skunk'ape, even though that's what we're all expecting. Some plot twist in the end will reveal it to be someone completely different.

It can't be the least obvious person, either, because we all now know to immediately suspect the least obvious person. I mean, I was totally shocked to learn that the *Censored* Poppers were actually the rulers of Hell. So now, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm going to immediately be guessing that the villain is the least obvious person I can think of; a totally random character, like the Bug or Puddin'head Lincoln.

But that would suck, too, since I'd be expecting it in a way, even though Telltale would have chosen a villain like that with the purpose of shocking us.

Therefore, it's the person we most MIDDLY suspect. Like Bosco. It was totally Bosco. Why do you think he hasn't been around this season? Case closed!

It was Papierwaite (it's speculation, I'm not saying it as a fact). I agree with the theory that he was trapped in the astral projector and escaped.

My theory still holds.. Max's brain Escaped all on it's own....that would not prevent any one from stealing it...that probably would make it easier! I mean really, you think anyone could beat Max in a fair OR unfair fight, like the case always would be!

Dwight Schrute: [On camera] I know it wasn't her. It's never the ones you most suspect. It's also not the ones you least expect, since anyone with half a brain would suspect them. Therefore, it has to be Meredith, or Beatrice, the one I most medium suspect.

It was totally European Guy. There's something about that voice I don't quite trust ...

While I wait for mine to finish downloading... I think the cockroach did it.

It's just that the Max scenes would be from the perspective of his disembodied brain. Possibly inside of a vat of greenish fluid.

Above spoilers are for They Stole Max's Brain. But they weren't spoilers when they were originally posted.

These Questions have now been answered. Mostly.

2. Who is Stinky's real "Mr. S"?- Unsolved

4. What's up with the Sal the Giant Roach?- A giant roach who used to work at Stinky's until Grandpa Stinky fired him. He now works at the New York Museum of Mostly Natural History.
5. What will be the set-up for the next episode?- A bunch of Naked Sams show up and crowd around our heroes. And Papierwaite and Skun-ka'pe.
