Episode 45 - Herostratus Folley (Part IV: Men At Work Arc / Tales From The Pizzaplex)

For nearly a decade, Midnight Motorist has remained one of Five Nights at Freddy’s most frustrating unsolved mysteries. Who is the Yellow Guy? Who ran away from the house? Where is “that place,” and what left those mysterious footprints outside the broken window? In this episode, we return to the infamous Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Simulator minigame with evidence from FNaF 4, Help Wanted, Ticket to Fun, and Secret of the Mimic to reconstruct when Midnight Motorist takes place and identify who the runaway is. From Charlotte Emily’s murder to Murray’s Costume Manor's collapse, this theory explores whether Midnight Motorist may connect the earliest mysteries of Scott Cawthon’s FNaF story directly to the modern Steel Wool era; and how the penulimated entry to Scott Cawthon's Original FNaF Saga, could hold the key to how the Modern Era could end?

Happy 12th Anniversary Five Nights at Freddy's! A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one, I imagine. A capstone for our time with The "Men At Work" at the Freddy Fazbear Mega Pizzaplex, Episode 46 (Cleithrophobia) concludes with an amazing fan-song both to the Five Nights at Freddy's series and the world of Into The Night. In this, we celebrate all those who worked to keep the show machine of Fazbear Entertainment running in the new age, and the old. Those who clocked in and never were able to clock out. An ode to the ghosts beneath Fazbear's stage. Have A Good Night.

Grady has spent years healing from the trauma that shaped his childhood. After a horrifying accident left him with Cleithrophobia (the fear of being trapped), he's learned to live with the unseen scars, convincing himself that as long as there's a way out, he'll be alright. Working late during the final safety inspections of the still-under-construction Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex, Grady finds himself alone inside Ballora's Fitness & Flex, an attraction built around squeezing through an ever-tightening network of tunnels. What begins as a routine inspection quickly becomes an inescapable nightmare, as Glamrock Ballora's programming compels her to "help" him descend deeper into the attraction, no matter the toll done to his body.

Abe Thayer is running out of patience and time. Still shaken by his near-death experiences within his Fazplex Tower apartment, Abe begins to question whether Rose, Olive, and Gemini are telling the truth about the decommissioned Gen1 Bobbiedots. Determined to prove they existed, he ventures beneath the Freddy Fazbear’s Mega Pizzaplex in search of a decommissioned unit. Physical evidence that Fazbear Entertainment would rather stay buried. But the mystery takes a personal turn when a girl named Sasha unexpectedly enters his life. As Abe finds himself drawn to her, the tension inside his apartment only escalates, and questions surrounding the previous tenant, Landon Prout, and whatever happened to his fate grow harder to ignore.
