Today on me rewatching The Sign and realizing shit

ok I don't know if this is like obvious to everyone else but I figured out something rewatching The Sign

this scene in episode 2 where Phaya gets lured out to sea?

This is NOT Wansarat!!!! This is CHALOTHORN!!!!

this is something that has confused me. why would Wansarat be leading Phaya out to the ocean? that doesn't seem to make sense considering everything, but I just brushed it aside as a plot hole or something but then rewatching noticed this!

if you look closely you cans see that Wansarat's eyes flash green for a moment (there's a little sound effect when it happens too, but it's easy to miss)

you know whose eyes also flash green? Narong (the police officer who killed those guys in episode 5) when he was being possessed by... you guessed it CHALOTHORN!!!

(here you can see how his eyes changed while he was being possessed)

now at this point Chalothorn has shown up twice (though we don't know that yet). once in his sea serpent form in episode 1 and then in episode 2 he's camouflaged at the bar

and look at those eyes!!! they're green!!!

but wait there's more!!!

when Phaya sees "Wansarat" here, there's an interesting effect as he goes into a trance and walks into the water....

this being identical to the effect in episode 9 where Chalothorn lures him into the water by pretending to be Tharn!!!!

FURTHERMORE!!! The only times we see Wansarat directly are in Phaya's dreams and in episode 1 where she rescued him from the water/Chalothorn which turned out to also be Tharn pulling Phaya out

So why would Wansarat be over here by herself, while Tharn is elsewhere, since they're the same person? Why would she lure her soulmate to drown? It's because Chalothorn has disguised himself as Wansarat to lead Phaya to his death!!! He has been spying on them at the camp at this point, but at this point couldn't gauge how close they were so he went with Wansarat to lure Phaya (opposed to episode 9 where he disguised himself as Tharn for the same purpose since he knew Phaya would go after Tharn). He had already seen Wansarat save Phaya earlier, so he knew that he would follow her, and he even said the exact same thing to him to lure him over.

So this?

is Wansarat

But this?

is Chalothorn pretending to be Wansarat in order to lure Phaya to his death

Wait so...the guy who plays the villain, Chalothon

is the same guy who played the second obsessive goofball, Sky, in Secret Crush on You?

Heng's got range, but I don't think I'll be able to look at him the same way again. Lol

CHALOTHON from THE SIGN

Justification:

"Sharing is caring. In this case sharing your naga wife" - Anonymous

Finally finished The Sign and I’m going to need a 20 minute crack video of Tharn trying to convince Dr Slo Motion to leave them alone while in the Naga caves.

Doc is upside down on a sofa genuinely trying to understand “so you love him. Which means you could love me.” And Tharn groans and face palms.

Another time over dinner Tharn is explaining why he likes Phaya and Doc exasperated says “that’s totally me you’re literally describing me.” Tharn screams internally.

The thing that finally makes Doc let him go is while they are playing twister Doc asks him why he hates him so much and Tharn just looks him dead in the face and says “you killed me twice.” And Doc is like “yeah fair.” And sends him home.

I know we're all collectively sick and tired of the love triangle trope, but it seems like the love triangle between Chalothon, Tharn, and Phaya will be more complicated than we thought because Chalothon is a Naga (sea serpent) who has been in love with Tharn the longest and has been looking out for him for thousands of years meanwhile Phaya is the Garuda (mythical bird-like god) who is Tharn's one true love and fated to die over and over again. We're gonna be in for an emotional rollercoaster ride with these three. 🥺

Most Unhinged - Loser's Bracket Round 3: Ruan Lan Zhu (The Spirealm) vs Chalothon (The Sign)

[Submitted Reasons Under Cut]

Ruan Lan Zhu: "ruan lanzhu is insane 24/7/365. will easily kill to protect his boyfriend and will also fistfight girls in a Wendy's parking lot. regularly crossdresses to get away with being extra naughty and manipulating people and not work as hard. a boy got a crush on his female persona, thinking it was his sister, and lanzhu used that against him to make him work harder (and also it was funny) and also used the opportunity to flirt with his crush ("I think my sister's more suited for jiushi. I want my sister to be with jiushi. jiushi and my sister are quite close, they're even sharing beds and cuddling.") died and came back to life and was worse (affectionate). secretly an NPC created by the game developer and was so obsessed with/fell so hard for lin jiushi, who he was literally designed FOR, slowly grew into some type of real person."

Chalothon: none submitted

*calls out into the void*

Is there a The Sign server on Discord that I can join so that I can scream about my newest obsession??

If not… if I made one… would anyone be interested in joining?

"But it wouldn't be hard for Tharn to love me without you."

And another thing about that fake doctor cause no doctor will ever say the things he says to phaya. That whole art scene made my blood boil. He literally brought up phayas mental health in front of his coworkers!! And his boss! This supposed doctor tries to self diagnose this man again, I hope tharn caught onto his evil ways it's so CLEAR!
