"Mom, your dress is...." ????

Post by MistahJ »

I always wondered what Alex meant when he said that to his mom. You know, the first time you encounter her in the game, after you take the gun off her lap? Well, my question is- what the hell does he mean? There didn't seem to be anything wrong with her dress.

Sorry if this has been brought up before.

I think Alex wanned to say "Mom, your derss is... all wet", since it looks like she came from the basement.

I also believe that he was going to comment on her dress being wet. The wet spots on the floor leading to her would imply she was at least a little wet.

Okay, thanks for the help. That does make sense.

One has to wonder what she was doing down there and why she wasn't mutilated by the lurker.

because things in Silent Hill universe tend to spontaniously appear, especially when it comes to enemies

She obviously encountered the Lurker, or else she wouldn't of boarded up the place and gotten a gun.

^ I thought the gun was because she was contemplating suicide? :S

Well, I guess no matter how you figure the gun, she probably managed to see it before it could attack her.

She's totally suicidal, dude. She's catatonic, and she has a gun, and she's murmuring shit about missing Josh and wanting to be with him. Work it out.

It's more like a slime trail

I think the trail of fluid is suppose to represent amniotic fluid (it looks thicker than water in this instant) to fit in with Alex's mom's theme of motherhood, pointing a finger to the final boss fight.

^ Or maybe... Alex's mom gave birth to the lurker, who crawled to the basement and after seeing what kind of creep borned she went all nuts and decided to kill herself?

Yeah it's water. Just the graphics on this game aren't the best for detail.

i dont think lillian was suicidal at all.
she seems very hurt by the fact josh is dead, and that she couldnt be close to alex.
the gun? Well, she was just in the cellar, so id say protection

Protection? The woman is oblivious to the world around her. It is Adam's old pistol. Adam has gone out to "find Josh". It's really entirely possible she's suicidal, in a state of denial about Josh's death, the same as Alex is, but feeling a horrible depression over her, a sense of despair she can't ever shake,

Same logic can be applied for the idea of her being suicidal. What is she gonna do? Pistol-whip herself until she dies?

I was under the impression she is suicidal to some extent too though. Having a revolver in her lap while talking about how much she misses her dead son didn't help the matter any.

It's easier to kill yourself with a busted gun than it is to kill a horrible inhuman demon monster.
