Hey guys, Pete here. today I'm gonna talk about the big questions that Dark season
2 left unanswered and what we can expect to get answers for in season 3. Dark can
be confusing what with characters moving through time and each season seems to
ask more questions than it answers. in this video I'll explain the biggest
questions I want answers to after season 2 of dark and you can let me know what
yours are in the comments. real quick there's been a lot of spoilery images
from season 3 filming filtering out I decided to leave those out of this video
I'm gonna make a second video to discuss those rather than including them here
some people don't like to see stuff like that in advance so this seems like the
best solution this video will contain spoilers for everything through season
two though so now that you've been warned let's get into it first question
I have is who is the new Martha and how does she change things the big cherry on
top twists of season 2 was the arrival of an alternate Martha in windin who
saves younger Jonas from the apocalypse right after he watches his Martha the
Martha and his world die when Jonas asked this new character what time did
you come from she answers the question isn't what time the question is what
world obviously this feels related to Claudia mentioning that she's seen a
world without Jonas and yeah it looks like there is at least one more windin
or one more world that we have to explore just when you think you got a
handle on the rules of time travel inside Dark's story and wrap your head
around the deterministic structure where everything that's happened has always
happened and there's no free will here comes Martha number 2 when we know
Martha number 1 has definitely just died it's a turn that brings up a lot of
questions is this the loophole that Adam has
talked about? are they going to her world right now? has this always happened? the
good news is more Martha albeit not the same Martha but bad news is that her
existence definitely complicates things I'm going to avoid going down rabbit
holes here because there are a lot of other questions to get into and I think
they've given us exactly as much as they want us to know at this point but let me
know what you think in the comments about who alt Martha is and how she
changes things one of the big debates is whether this has always happened or if
this is the first time and it's happened I tend to think it always has but let me
know how you're sorting it out the next question is where did Katharina go at the
end of season 2 we see Katharina opened the door in the caves after being
led there by some mysterious particles or whatever you wish to call them
she looked poised to move through the passage so when will she end up her son
Mikkel found himself stuck in 1986 after passing through the caves and her
husband Ulrich landed in 1953 Katharina was studying the maps and essentially
doing all the same things Jonas was doing before he finally was successful
in moving through the passage but if that has any bearing on what time period
shall come out in on the other side it's impossible to tell expect that she would
be trying to get to her son Mikkel first and foremost but it also seems unlikely
that she has any control over where and when she goes when she passes through
either way she should be somewhere other than 2020 where the apocalypse just went
down and I'm looking forward to see what she gets into the next question is is
Adam actually Jonas and if so how did he become Adam? I'm pretty firmly in the
Adam is Jonas camp and I don't spend very much time wondering if he might be
someone else but there's a lot of other people who think he could actually be
Bartosz one of the reasons I tend to think that he is who he says he is is
because it works pretty well that way to me it makes sense that the one pulling
the strings would be the character we've been watching from the beginning rather
than there being some big hidden twist involved another reason I feel pretty
comfortable with the story as it is is because the official guide web site that
they put together says that he's Jonas and I don't think that that is an
elaborate hoax I could be wrong but it feels pretty honest from my point of
view what's more interesting to me is how over the 33 years stranger Jonas
turns into Adam we know that the stranger was moved to save Magnus
Franziska and Bartosz after he read the letter
that young Noah gave him we've seen his lair under the church that exists in
1921 and we've seen the photo of Sic Mundus that was taken in that same year
will season three fill in those blanks for us that leads directly into the next
question which is when did Jonas Magnus Franziska and bartosh go
since these characters are traveling with the time house device we can assume
that they're going to be jumping around some I suppose that where they go
initially to survive the apocalypse isn't that important my question is will
they settle in 1888 and live there until we meet at least some of them again in
1921 that seems the most likely to me but there could be many steps that
unfold before they actually get there or they could never go there at all
let me know what you think and I mentioned the letter that's another big
question in my mind - what does the letter say that young Noah delivered to
Jonas he said it came from Martha that doesn't really make sense unless of
course it's the alt Martha who wrote it it seems way more likely that Adam would
have written it but either way is this the point where he learned something
beyond what we see him do as in this one he starts to really change to become
Adam it's hard to say all I know is that there's a lot of letters flying around
in this world and I feel suspicious about every one of them like who wrote
them why they wrote them all the way out the next question is what role will
Hannah play in the past we know that Hannah ended up in 1954 at the end of
season two and she seems to be indicating that she might stay there
there's also a hint that there may be some chemistry going on between her and
the younger Egon and we also know that Katharina is moving through time and it
would be interesting if those two cross paths again I think it's safe to say
that Hannah will stay in 1954 for a while and I can't see her not getting
mixed up with the other characters in that time there are some theories about
how things turn out based on some of those behind the scenes photos that the
showrunners have been posting that I mentioned in the beginning like I said I
won't get into those here but check out the season 3 spoilers video that
make after this one for more on that in the meantime let me know how you think
her presence in the 50s will change things next question is there more to
Aleksander's story than we know Aleksander Tiedamann's history as Boris
Niewald is mysterious the circumstances around his arrival and Winden make it
seem to me that there's definitely more going on with this character but at the
same time he's done a lot of other stuff as well so is it just coincidence that
he shows up bleeding running from the law
next to the caves back in 1986 when he shows up we know that that something
went down in Marburg he's worried about being found out about that but then we
also have Claussen come into the story to me it appears that Boris Niewald and
Alexander Kohler Clausen's brother were the two that were on the run so what
does that actually mean for the real Aleksander Kohler did he go somewhere and
on top of that we don't know where Aleksander Tiedemann came from in the
story where everyone is essentially connected so I hope we find out more
about his backstory we'll have to wait and see speaking about not knowing where
people come from the next big question I have is who are knowin Agnes's parents I
did a detailed family tree about a week ago if you haven't seen that video you
should check it out but when I look at that
the biggest mystery to me is where Noah and Agnes came from in the first place
we saw them living with Erna in the 1921 timeline but beyond that we can't really
trust anything they say as far as Agnes telling the Tiedemanns when she first
moves in she says her grandmother was from Winden and I think that is probably
true but we don't know anything else about who her actual parents are and
when you look at the family tree it has pretty big impact on how everybody's
connected she is the first Nielson that we know of and it just builds from there
speaking of Noah how did Noah Elisabeth and baby Charlotte get split up this
whole thing's pretty interesting of course you know Elisabeth and Charlotte
are each other's mothers. we know that these two are standing getting ready to
touch through the wormhole at the end of season two which is
another question in itself, when did they end up, but I'm curious because
we've seen photos what happens after the bunker did they stay in the regular time
line do they move into the future and have the child there do they go back
somewhere and have the child and then ultimately how do they get separated
how does young Charlotte end up in the care of HG Tannhaus that could be very
well connected to the next question which is what's Claudia really trying to
do? we have a pretty good idea that Adam is true when he says that he's at war
with time course he lies about everything to get people to do different
things but I feel like he's probably trying to do something like that he's
trying to break the cycle Claudia is more mysterious to me because
several characters align themselves with her and then pull back and change sides
and we see that the biggest things that happened to claudia as far as personal
loss is the death of her father and we know that Regina is dying and that she
feels remorse about not spending more time with her but what is she actually
trying to accomplish is she trying to do something that we haven't quite
understood yet because she does bring up the fact that she's seen the world
without Jonas and then we eventually see her come to the end of her life I tend
to think that she exists based on what we've seen into the future like she's
definitely left that string wall behind in the bunker that Jonas comes across in
2053 everything about what Elizabeth's doing when we run into her in the future
seems to be influenced by Claudia those two would have been there together
building the future if you will so I think it's a pretty big mystery about
what Claudia is actually trying to accomplish in relation to being at odds
with Adam another thing I think about when I think about the people who
survived I mean Regina has terminal cancer so I'm expecting that she may die
because of that I don't think that health care is going to be improved in
the near future so she's got that to deal with the next question then is what
happens to Peter after that Charlotte's not there with him she touches hands
with Elizabeth we don't know where she'll end up but Peter will exist and
he's a mystery already we don't know who his
parents really are we don't know where he came from why he showed up in 87
instead of being born in Winden where everybody knew about it so there's
definitely some hints that he might play a really large role as being one of the
survivors that kind of segues into the next question and that is who are all
the new actors gonna play an article on The Hollywood Reporter website listed
several new actors that were added to the cast for season three we see them
all here we got a Barbara, Hans Diehl, Jakob Diehl, Nina, a Sammy and an Axel. out
of these Sammy has been credited as playing a small role in season 1 episode
6 I believe he was this actor from Martha's play but he's also being listed
as a new character which means that he's probably not still playing this exact
same guy this actor has been in some of those behind the scenes photos that I've
been talking about so you can learn more about those when I make the next video
Hans and Jakob are father and son in real life for a show that does a good
job of casting actors that look alike and they look like aged up versions of
each other hiring the actual father and son is pretty interesting it seems more
likely that they would play the same character at different ages rather than
a father and son because the only younger character who doesn't already
have confirmed older versions is Bartosz and I don't really see a resemblance
there the German web site movie pilot made an interesting connection though
Sammy, Jakob, and Hans do kind of share a resemblance does that mean that we could
be getting a new character that we're gonna see at all three different ages at
this point in the story two of the other new actors are in the 70s and this is
how it connects to Peter I thought of him right away since we know he survives
in the bunker an Axel Werner could be the older Peter Barbara is hard to pin
down because Claudia Jana and Ines are the only female characters we've seen in
that age group she could be playing an older Charlotte Elizabeth or Agnes but
then there's a lot of other possibilities as well if you look at the
family tree. Nina on the other hand is in her 50s which lines her up pretty good
to be an older version of Martha but then have to ask the question again are we
going to see that much of the alternative world that we see older
versions of these people as well? these last questions I'm just gonna throw them
out there and not go into him as deeply who is Silja? if she first showed up at
the end of season one and it feels like she has to be connected to someone in
the four main family somehow next who wrote the leather-bound notebook Adam
seems like a good candidate but he seems rather interested in getting the missing
pages back from Claudia at the same time all we know for sure is that it's said
to be written by someone who had already seen in the past in the future so who is
the author was this character actually an older bartosh I tend to think it was
but if that's the case why haven't they named him that yet have we already seen
evidence of multiple worlds the different calendars in the Conrad house
is the best evidence for that but there's other things that pop out to
fans as well some of them are bound to be production errors but it seems weird
that they would all be production errors and of course the last question is what
happened to Torben Wholer's eye? there are so many more questions I actually have
but I had to try to keep this as short as it makes sense to do in this format
so I'm gonna end it there let me know what questions you have let me know what
you think about my questions how did you feel about the whole Martha from another
world twist when it happened if I'm honest at first I really didn't enjoy it
I didn't like say oh the whole thing's ruined and get pissed or anything but it
wasn't what I was expecting and it took a little while to set in of course
knowing that there's only three seasons planned and that they have an end point
in mind really helps in that regard but what do you think tell me in the
comments tell me what you want to see as far as new videos about dark we out
about a year until we're gonna see any more episodes so I'm interested to hear
what you think please like the video if you enjoyed it please subscribe to my
channel if you haven't already thanks for watching I'll talk to you soon
