J2 Out & About — Dec 15 to 19 2017 🕵️‍♂️Smoke & Mirrors🕵️‍♂️ Edition
Tumblr media
Smoke & Mirrors — the obscuring or embellishing of the truth of a situation with misleading or irrelevant information. The source of the name is based on magicians' illusions, where magicians make objects appear or disappear by extending or retracting mirrors amid a distracting burst of smoke. 
Tumblr media
From now on, you’ll have a chronological timeline of the events that set up the illusionistic trick we’ve been fed, these past few days.
Relevant events:
Thanksgiving 2017
THE PLEDGE
Tumblr media
“The magician shows you something ordinary. A deck of cards, a bird, or a man. He shows you this object. Perhaps he asks you to inspect it. To show you that it is indeed unaltered. But of course it probably isn’t.” (x)

Keep the two pictures above in mind, you're going to need them soon.
Dec 7, Thursday
4pm CT, FBB posts a picture with Steve testing the acoustics of the place. Check his clothes and pay attention to the woman's coat.
Tumblr media
On the same Dec 7, Lana, Steve's wife, posts a picture on a plane saying she misses someone, and answering a comment saying she's going away:

Did you notice the fur coat in the background? Does it look familiar? Go back a couple of pictures.
Dec 15, Friday
6:46pm CT, Jessica tweets this picture and caption, not mentioning date or place: "With the holidays comes holiday entertaining! Y'all going to some Christmas parties tonight??" 
Tumblr media
7:33pm CT, Jep tweets his picture with Jensen, Steve and Gino, implying it was taken at the same day/time. Take a look at their clothes, especially Steve's.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Remember that Lana's picture from a plane’s window on Dec 7? On Dec 15, she posts pictures of herself and a few friends. Her following pictures show her in Russia.
Tumblr media
10:20pm CT, D posts a picture on set with M (looking hella creepy...) and tags herself in Vancouver. 
Tumblr media
But... wait a minute! Is Jensen out & about in Austin while his “wife” works in Vancouver? Shocker! No, wait! She changes the caption the morning after, tagging Jensen as the photographer.
Tumblr media
So,Jensen has a clone in Vancouver! How interesting. Even more interesting is how everyone and their mothers were commenting how creepy and inappropriate M was looking at D in the picture... then BAM! Oops! Forgot my “husband” took the picture, of course.
Now the best thing about all that? Jensen’s comment with his usual double entendre mastery and dripping sarcasm:
Tumblr media
D was also wearing a trench coat in that picture...
On that same Dec 15, G floods her SM with pictures (one of them with a blurred Jared in the background), ads and a pointless live stream with Shep, where three interesting things happen:
“‘Go get Jared?’ No! What about me?” — replying to a comment
“Go find dad.”
“Who just got home?” — to what a hesitant Shep timidly replies “Dad?” 
“Go get your dad.” — who actually never shows
[Translation: Look, Jared is at home!... With me!]
Amidst all that, she also informs her followers she’s on her 4th day of flu, posting a picture of herself in a shirt she used for previous posts and ads. She looks surprisingly healthy, both in the picture and the livestream. 
THE TURN
Tumblr media
“The magician takes the ordinary something and makes it do something extraordinary. Now you’re looking for the secret, but you won’t find it. Because of course, you’re not really looking. Don’t really want to know. You want to be fooled. But you wouldn’t clap yet. Because making something disappear isn’t enough. You have to bring it back.” (x)

Tumblr media
Dec 18, Monday
G posts a boomerang with Jared fake applying make up on her, in the kitchen, while she holds a baby... Sure, G.
Tumblr media
Her caption:
Tumblr media
Wow, Jared, indeed Jack of all Trades! Did you take that selfie with your 3rd arm... Or maybe 3rd leg...? Oops, sorry!
And now, Ladies & Gentlemen....
THE PRESTIGE
Tumblr media
“The audience knows the truth…the world is simple. It’s miserable. Solid…all the way through. But if you could fool them even for a second…then you could make them wonder. And then you…then you got to see something very special.” (x)
Dec 19, Tuesday
The FBB posts the following picture:
Tumblr media
You know this room. You know these people. Now what you don’t know is when this picture was taken... Or do you?...
Remember the picture from the Thanksgiving weekend?
Tumblr media
What about those pictures form Dec 7 and 14?
Tumblr media
Remember Jessica’s picture setting up a table? 
Tumblr media
I just want to know one thing: who took this wonderful picture?
Tumblr media
But, wait! There’s someone missing at the table.... And they apparently left something behind...
Tumblr media
Is that a... Napkin? A beanie? A napkin and a beanie?...
In case you’re still wondering, all the pictures posted above by the FBB’s and the Ducks’ SM accounts were taken on the same day, Nov 26, during the thanksgiving weekend, once Jared arrived in Austin.
Now ask yourself... 
“Where were J2 while all these lategrams were being posted?”
Tumblr media
Citations and gifs from the movie The Prestige, by Christopher Nolan. The movie is one of my favorites and a lesson in Smoke & Mirrors. I strongly recommend you to watch and rewatch it, as you will find many similarities between the movie and this post. Here’s a spolierish article with good insights on this masterpiece.
