Who's The Rat v2.0

[nikvoodoo]

Right, Nik...which is why I no longer believe she's the rat.

What I meant with the radio was that maybe they used that channel to contact the tower before they showed up. 23 was the channel they had agreed to use with Saul. There was no reason for them to use other channels since they had just acquired the radio. 18 was suggested by the mallers...obviously the channel used by the rat. Or maybe suggested so no one would suspect the existence of a traitor.

Missed your overall points! Sorry. I need to realize when my eyes are crossing, I should probably stop posting.

He stole food.

Dammit, your right I hate being proved wrong. Need to go through WA another time.

I have an insane theory that just popped in my head while re-re-re-re-relistening to 2-2. Angel's gun jammed despite Michael having "fixed it". Then when they are having dinner Peggs (or Lizzie, I'm not quite sure) hears and sees something. Later we find out its is Mr. Whiskers the cat. But what if it's not just the cat? What if they have a Roach rather than a mole? It's crazy but what if there is an unknown survivor who is on the same insanity wavelength as Skittles living inside the tower walls? An escaped mental patient who has done time in Eastern Bay but was later transfered to the mental hospital. Then he recognized Angel from years back when the Leuitennant was hot wiring cars and paling around with Scratch and said, "I don't like that blonde dude so I'm going to disable his gun."
He could also be responsible for hoarding the food (Bill may have just been saying, "Sorry" for being a dick or sorry for dying).

Yes, that is the answer for sure. I knew it all along!

(nah, I'm just screwing around, but I thought it was an interesting possibility, though waaaaay far fetched)

New person here

I have a theory for everyone on the list for who can be the rat, but here are my three favorites:

Angel: He is desperate to be the leader for everyone. He is fresh out of officer school and Michael either constantly assumes command or people just naturally follow him. No one ever thinks to ask Angel for his input, despite him being higher ranked than Michael. I think at one point he may have contacted the Mallers and offered some space in The Tower in exchange for a leadership role among them.

Saul: Very unlikely, I know. In the beginning he expressed how ready he was to "take care of my Sarge" and side with Michael with everything. Not much has changed since he and Lizzy became involved. I think for the sake of making life easier for everyone and eliminating one threat, he would have spoken with some of the Mallers, possibly helping them out when they got attacked when he was spying. Something about him making it back to the Tower unscathed and Scratch saying days later that they followed him, despite being under attack at the time doesn't sit well with me.

Pegs: She is always there for Michael and desperate for affection from him. I think her guilt over Latch's death might not only be from her killing him, but from her bringing them to the Tower to end up being killed. We also know she isn't a fan of violence, and probably thought having ex-cons as protection or a 'flesh barrier' between her people and the zombies may have been a good idea until the fighting started.

I agree with those that think there was more than one rat, with Kelly being one. How many times has she made her views about the Tower and her dislike for the soldiers known? She even had a group at one point (almost) ready to abandon the Tower when they had a brief power problem.

Now I will sit here and wait for the barrage of people picking apart my theories

[Anarchist Bunny]

I think the theory about Kelly is a the most solid one. While the party was more of Pegs idea, Kelly wasn't interested in any suggestion about the party except just to break out the boose.

However my theory about the deal being made with Scratch to take out Durai is dead in the water. After whoever it is that fired the first shots from the tower, Durai talks over the CB radio after the last shot and does not sound like he is in any duress.

I say Tommy was, but not in the sense he did it on purpose, let me lay it down: You're a young boy, the only kid alone in a tower and your aunt is a huge bitch who never listens to you. What if by chance you begin to play with the radio and hear voices on the other end, the people begin to talk to you and they are (acting) nicely to you and talking to you, even giving you advice and making you feel better. You begin to tell them about what's been going on with your life and these new cameras you made (Durai couldn't have known where all of them were) soon you're alone because the adults are alone and you tell the person on the other end about this, soon you are caught and lie and say you never touched the radio and talked to them. That's why I think Tommy was an unintentional rat.

I chose Tommy as well.. *sticks tongue out at Ra1th*.. See SEE I am not crazy! My theory was he might have done it cause of what was going on. He was a kid without direction and kids make mistakes.

Unlike NoReality's scholarly approach to their conclusion. I prefer to use a different method, a rather idiotic model.

It Was Saul Dammit! I will stand resolute in my beliefs!

Take it back Sid! Take it back! LOL We both know Saul was to busy practicing procreation with Lizzy to be on the radio~

Interesting theory. He's a smart kid but still could be fooled. Aside from having to deal with Kelly everyone was basically nice to him. Datu and Burt were training him all the time and the rest were supportive. It's inconclusive.

Tommy is a very good boy but he is still a boy and boys make mistakes. aunt Kelly sucked as emotional support for him. yes everyone treated him ok but he was also subjected to more stress then a child of 15 should or would be able to deal with.

Like i said originally, you bring up a good argument for tommy, but I personally dont think the traitor will be a dead person, just kills the suspense, plus the traitor could come in handy in the upcoming maller segments.

that being said I can't really disprove tommy either so yeah he's a suspect as well I guess, there's no way to know who it is past a certain degree.
