H+ is a science
fiction web-series created by Bryan Singer and Warner Brothers. They release
videos each week to create a complex story about a world where implants allow
people to access the internet through their minds. When a virus is uploaded to
the system, it kills a third of humanity. For each episode they release a clue
about the complex plot on their website hplusdigitalseries.com. The clue for
episode 46 is a complex
chart showing the relationships between the characters in the series. Each
character is abbreviated by their initials. My friend Braden and I deciphered
most of the chart and its secrets are listed below.

Martin (husband of parking garage family, dies)
jM = Julie
Martin (wife of parking garage family)
bM = Brian

rB = Rob

major character

(helped develop wrist implant)
a = Andy
(helped develop wrist implant)
eR =Enzo
(father who dies in Voci Dal Sud)

dP is
Breanna’s father and sFP is her mother. They both spawn her and they mutually bond each other.
dP,
Breanna’s father, also spawned Francis Peters. This implies that Breanna and
Peters are step -siblings.
Both of Breanna’s parents also spawn H Plus Nano Teo
Francis
Peters fights H Plus Nano Teo

(unknowns =
t, T, b, aO)
Hypotheses
b is the
African soldier who helps Topi find Dunbarra
t is one of
the members of Peter’s team that developed the wrist implants
T is Topi’s
boss that he talks to in the Snow Viper episode
I have no
clue who aO is.
Update (1/16/13): The entire series has been released. I
have solved a bit more of the chart. By watching the episode Snow Viper again,
I confirmed that T is Topi’s boss Tolonen. James (a fellow fan of the series) explained
in a comment below that aO is Anthony, the character that helps Kenneth find
parts in the episode Makeshift Engineering. I also misspelled Mortle, I didn’t
see it spelled until I saw a locked commercial from them.
T= Tolonen (Topi’s boss)
aO= Anthony
Jason O’Brien mutually rules Anthony
Anthony mutually plots Kenneth Lubahn
Tolonen hires Topi Kuusela
UPDATE (2/2/13):
Paul Parenko
has solved the rest of the chart. He has also put the character names in the bubbles
on the chart. Go check it out.
t =
Trevor (member of the team that develops the wrist implants)
b = Babu (African soldier who helps Topi find Dunbarra)
Lord Pearce
Wachter rules Babu
Babu
mutually plots Topi
Trevor
mutually plots Francis Peters
Breanna’s
parents are named Dixon Peters and Slaine Fizgibbon Peters. The child’s name is
Vadish. The last name of the Italian family in Voci Dal Sud is Roma and Rob’s
last name is Boston.
It
appears that I am the only person on the H Plus Google+ page who doesn’t
believe that Manta’s real name is Samantha Wachter. Samantha sounds link Manta
and Wachter is the name of a company in the story.
In the episode
Two of Them (episode 40) Manta begins to air her conscience with Matteo. She begins her
story by saying,
“Twelve years ago I believed I was
everyone and everything, black hat reckless hacker living on my terms. Then I
met a man, his name was Francis Peters.” (episode 40, 4:06)
We don’t
get to hear what she says next, but she begins her story by describing herself
as a black hat hacker, not as someone with a biological relationship with Lord
Pearce Wachter.
Lord
Pearce Wachter comes in to “clean up” Dunbarra (website extra for
episode 39) and there isn’t any information to indicate that the company was
involved before then.
I think that
sW merely means that Manta is not her real name, which would make sense for a
hacker working on a team developing real cyborgs. I suppose it is possible that
Manta’s name is Samantha Wachter and that she has a biological relationship to
the company, but I don’t think we have enough evidence to conclude that yet.
This blog
post has become the most read post in Truth Matters history.
I have
corrected the spelling of Topi and Mortle throughout this post.
aO is Anthony, the side character that helps get the parts from the "Fiat" in the beginning to help (unsucessfully) bring back Julie's husband. the connection to Jason is how he's used in episode 45 to manipulate Ken.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your other ones...though I don't remember who Patricio Raiz is. unless that's the doctor in Chile that finds Simona..which then makes sense. But I don't get how Simona has "hired" enzo as the chart implies.
Also, a guy somewhere on google postulated that sW was "SaMANTA Watcher"...which might imply that she's related to LPW...I want to know where he got that from. because i've scoured the ancilary materials, the fake websites, and the episodes and can't find jack.
You are right about Patricio Raiz. We see his name on a magazine in episode 18 Advent.
DeleteSimona hires Enzo when he sees a vision of her in the field before he dies in episode 6 Voci Dal Sal Sod. http://www.definitions.net/definition/madonna
Some commenters on google+ think the child's name is Vadish. How do they know?
SaMANTA Wactcher is just a guess Samantha sounds like Manta and Wactcher is the name of the company involved in her story. I don't think it's likely, she always described herself as a black hat hacker, not as someone with a biological relationship to the company. The company comes in to clean up Dunbarra (website materials) and wasn't involved before then.
DeleteI think sW merely means that Manta is not her real name, which would make sense for a hacker working on a team developing real cyborgs.
