Random thoughts-
After spending way too much time on FB and reading these sites, my eyes have been really opened!!! I would highly suggest any of you looking for more answers to check there, as I don't think certain things are allowed to be posted here. But here are some random thoughts I am having that I feel I must note before going to sleep:
1.) "WE" - it has really bothered me for a while that MR continuously uses the term "we" for "me." I'm not a psychologist or anything, but this seems odd to me. Almost like Dexter and his "dark passenger" for those of you who have watched the show. There is some interesting information out there that makes me think that Mark may actually have Multiple Personality Disorder.
2.) I've read Dylan's texts over and over, and whereas I originally felt that he was "excited" to see and hang out with his friends, the more I learn about his father, the more I suspect that Dylan was actually DESPERATE to hang out with his friends and get away from his father as quickly as possible-hence the 6 a.m. scheduled time for meeting up with his buddy.
3.) I have seen people who absolutely HATE one another come together in the case of a missing child, a sick child, the death of a child, etc... Even ER, who is actually begging MR to tell her where he is, seems even somewhat empathetic when reaching out to MR, going so far as to say, "please" if it was an accident, please just tell us where he is. MR has absolutely no pity for this woman. An innocent father, no matter his hate for his ex-would show some compassion for the mother of his missing child.
4.) After reviewing the DP tapes, it is clear that MR didn't "chicken out" of the LDT. He NEVER planned on taking it from the get go. He figured he would come up with excuse after excuse to get out of it. He avoided the LDT simply because he knows he will not pass it (IMO.)
5.) MR had lost Dylan, just as he had lost ER. Dylan couldn't stand his father. He didn't want to spend time with his father and his only light of seeing his father was in getting to see his friends. I think this infuriated MR. He saw Dylan as the final blow in "losing" to ER and decided to "win" by taking away the one thing he could take away from her forever-her beautiful son.
I have confidence that Dylan will be found, but not hopeful that he is alive. I also have confidence that MR will eventually be tried and convicted of this terrible crime, unless he takes his own life, drinks himself to death or has a heart attack. He is a sick, sick man, in my opinion, and he knows he has nowhere to turn to. No one supports him. Everyone sees through his guilt. I feel he is a danger to himself and others at this stage and needs to be watched very closely. He is alone-in his cabin in the woods-and he has lost. He knows he has lost and he knows he will never win anything ever again.
