User blog:Paintybrush/Bow theory! (MAY BE RIGHT, MAY BE WRONG, IDK!!)



Hello! ConfusionAnimations here, and today, for my first ever theory, I am going to be talking about Bow from Inanimate Insanity. If you didn’t already know, Bow died from Marshmallow putting her in a box and she turned evil. Evil Bow knocked Mephone5 and Mephone4 in a ditch (or hole?) and killed them all. But, as Mephone4 can recover anyone from the notification of their death, he never got Bow’s recovery message as he was dead as well when Bow died. And, in Bow’s words (play Bow clip): “As I was floating in nothingness, for like, forever” she awoke when she got banished to the mansion from Episode 6 and 11. But, she was a ghost. She couldn’t leave the mansion. Cut to season 3, Inanimate Insanity Invitational. Bow is somehow.. alive?- Like, alive, alive. Not transparent, her tail is (sadly) gone, and she’s just.. alive, and thriving. But.. how?



Bow was in the mansion for, like, forever, as I said before. But Episode 7 shows that, as Candle said, she doesn’t have an aura. According to spiritual beliefs, an aura is a colored emanation said to enclose a human body or any animal or object. In some esoteric positions, the aura is described as a subtle body. That means that.. she is actually dead. She has no soul. No real, genuine personality. And, as Episode 7 also shows, Bow had a chip in her head. Episode 15 isn’t out yet, mind you, so we don’t actually know if Bow is gone or not. But I think we do.



The comics show on the official Inanimate Insanity website that Apple did, in fact, come to live with Bow and Marsh, providing solid evidence that Bow is, in fact, still dead. She is still in that mansion and cannot leave. So how is Bow in III?



I believe that Bow is a robot, built by Steve Cobs to spy on, and later take down, Mephone4. That makes sense, as when Toilet was leaving the II2 parameters, he ran into Mephone5. How does she have feelings and a personality? you must be asking. I have the answer to that question. As you can see, Mephone4 was built by Cobs. He has a personality. He can feel. I think, if Mephone was, like, fully programmed by Cobs, he must have been programmed to feel. MePad, on the contrary,  was not fully programmed by Cobs, evident in Episode 13, when Mephone4 stole him while he was still a work in progress. So the possibility of Bow being programmed by Cobs for 8 months then preparing her for about 5 days before the voyage to the island is likely. He most likely programmed Bow to know what happened in Season 1. Blocking out and making her forget important words of her life (evidently at the moment “chair” and “marshmallow”) with that chip from her head, he thought he could prevent her remembering the Meeple Corp. facility, but what he didn’t know is that that chip hurt her head when people said those important words. I think she will start to revolt against Cobs. She will, starting Episode 8, fight back. Mephone4 will find out, and he’ll sympathize her; as you know, he was also a slave and product of Cob’s. If you have any more thoughts, please reply! I’d love to hear them!
