Hmm, so the connection between the black roses Dylan's received and the Undertaker's Daughter is made finally. While she may be the source of the roses, I currently believe Cail (with Chris being a distant runner up suspect) is the one actually delivering them, as only Cail and Chris have been in the vicinity of both rose deliveries. Though whether Cail is the brains of the act or the Undertaker's Daughter is instead is up for interpretation at this point.

And huh… looks like Dylan went through a door that was intended to go outside and is now in some under maintained… greenhouse perhaps? Looks like Dapper Jerry's back at it.

It hadn't occurred to me that the Undertaker's Daughter might not have friendly intentions, but you're right, she is definitely a suspect. Assuming that the roses are ill-intentioned, that is.

My working hypothesis is that the black roses aren't supernatural, but mundane, as I can't find any good connection between them and Ghost Jerry or Dapper Jerry. As a symbol of death, my guess is that they're like a pirate's black spot parchment, an omen that you're going to die/be executed.

"working hypothesis"
You are one of the few people I know who actually use the term. Thumbs-up! Although I often say it incorrectly myself because people are just super used to "theory" and this is not acedemic research... or is it??

Anyway!
I have a hard time pinning anything against the girl. She knew Cail and Cail is weird and could easily take the flowers. Probably did as well. That is how the flowers ended up in various places. However, if it were her then that changes things but still, I cannot any reason why she would do that. Unless she really had something for Jerry or other reasons.
My bet is still Cail at this point.

I do not think the flowers are supernatural myself but probably have supernatural effects against ghosts or something to that effect.
Somebody (Cail?) was using them and probably knows about the ghosts (or the phenomenon however real or fake it is). Since the girl knows a bit about ghosts, are saying that could be the clue?

Dylan returned the flower so we will see how that goes.

Also, holy crap... I still do not get how good Moth is in portraying disturbed Dylan. Just hoping NOTHING is based on personal experiences... LMAO :D :D

Yeah, I'm as guilty as the next when using theory wrong in a sentence. I'm only using it right because I got a scientist friend who drilled it into me (Lovingly of course). As an aside, I prefer the word theory since it's so much shorter, and easier to say since it has fewer syllables, so I still use it wrong on occasion. I just endure loads of inner turmoil as I decide between the easier word and the right word.

It's hard to say what the Undertaker's Daughter would or wouldn't do, since we've only once seen her when Dylan hasn't just shown up at her home. I'm not saying I honestly think she's done something evil at this point, but the possibility remains.

That is a very good scientist friend then ;)
Writing related stuff drilled it to me but talking with scientist friends too :D

Anyway!
The possibility remains. I do not think she would do something evil but then at this rate more people may not be as innocent.
I myself think that she is at least hiding something important.
However, she did prepare Jerry's body. Sure, that is her job and everything but it begs the question of what she might have noticed on her own...

Hmm… I’m Pushing Dasies, the lead character had a locket that was a key item. Maybe Jerry has something on him that the Undertaker’s Daughter noticed or removed… and judging by how Jerry took Chris’s piercing, I heavily doubt the McGuffin is his own, but rather Rob’s.

I think we've been here before: http://je-re-my.thecomicseries.com/comics/93/
The building likely used to be a church, what with the graveyard and all, so I guess it's a good place to confront a ghost...

spooky

I think you'll find this comic is a spooky-free zone

If there weren't evidence otherwise, I'd say this is a suggestion of Dylan having never been a twin, but manifested a twin to represent his thoughts/feelings he couldn't manage.

I once considered trying to make that a canon explanation but I couldn't make it work :'D

Hmm…

The blood on Dylan's clothes could've been from his nose bleeds after he 'murdered' his alter-ego.

The funeral could be for Dylan's cousin, but not mentioned on screen.

Corey could have an odd fixation on helping Dylan with his multiple personality disorder or hallucinations or dilusions (Whatever the angle of approach is), which Dylan doesn't appreciate.

Maybe Corey's self proclaimed job is to make sure Dylan takes his meds, which he's not doing since the fight.

Dunno what the nature of Rob's fight with Jerry was, Jerry's breakup with Corey, or why Chris is thinking Jerry isn't such a bad guy, so I can't really suggest how those key plot points might be retooled.

"Dunno what the nature of Rob's fight with Jerry was, Jerry's breakup with Corey, or why Chris is thinking Jerry isn't such a bad guy"

If we are going with the above then I would say it would be Dylan's way of blaming someone imaginary for his problems like with the rest of the points.
He caused them but has created this Jerry brother.
Had a fight with both Corey and Robin but blamed it on "Jerry".
Honestly. I am not too sure either how I would change things :D

The biggest hole in that theory, specifically that it wasn't Jerry being buried, is that the police specifically used Jeremy's name during their interview with Dylan regarding the disappearance of Robin:

If Jerry is all in Dylan's head, why would they mention him?

Hm. I think we are discussing a hypothetical scenario that was scrapped?
Unless you are just countering that as well :D
