I feel like they're making Hal too obvious with three episodes left. I think it could be someone who Chic is working with. We don't know if he was killed. They left him unattended down in the basement. Did they take his phone? (Honest question, my live feed was really spotty.) It could explain why he paused before running...and then ran in his direction. Why wouldn't he run AWAY from the Black Hood?

Maybe Charles didn't OD or get killed by Chic. Maybe they staged the whole thing so they could carry out this operation. After Alice shut the door in his face, maybe he decided he wanted his revenge. Chic, being his partner, went along with it. They set Alice up with the guy coming to the door and killing him (whoever killed him). Clearly, BH doesn't have issues killing people if they've done something wrong and this guy could've done something 'wrong'. Then they control the Coopers and, predictably they bring in the Joneses...which means Charles has "control" over both of his parents and two of his siblings.

How he might have known about Betty's personal interests could be from spying on them over the years. In that file at the Sisters it says that he was caught trying to leave the premises for the third time. Maybe he did it more than that and just wasn't caught. I think we might have been shown that tunnel for more than just a way to get Cheryl out of there.

This is all off the top of my head. I need to give it some more thought. Obviously, Charles might really be dead and Chic too.

wow, you are definitely better at this than I am. Why can't the BH leave anagrams? :D

The Charles is alive theory makes a lot of sense. I like it.

Of course, what was running through my mind while reading your post was "Oh, great, another presumed dead sibling named Charles who kept escaping from the institution where he was held. And of course, there are tunnels!" I just hope he is not now Ethel.... LOL
