imo the fact that hermie was born a teenager but also didn't know he was adopted implies that scam gave him false memories of having a childhood (and maybe he lost them/realized they were fake after finding out his true nature?? origin of the 'the man who stole my childhood' line and why hermie suddenly hates scam so much??? but i digress)*

which in turn makes me think he gave hermie's adoptive parents false memories of having raised him all his life. because 1) come on, it's scam and 2) i doubt they would've deemed it necessary to hide hermie's adoption from him if they'd adopted him as a full teenager

which IN TURN makes me think what if hermie's parents lost their memories of him after the original hermie died and then hermie2 comes 'back home' but his parents don't know who he is? there doesn't seem to be a trace he ever existed in this house, even? what are we thinking gang
