(Episode 4 spoilers)So... where is Nathan?
Hi there! So it's pretty much all in the title, but let's elaborate! So earlier today I was thinking about this whole theory from a while back about how it wasn't Rachel being buried because we never saw her face. Some people even suggested it could have been Nathan.

Which is ridiculous. By the ''smell'' comment, we know whoever is in there died a while back, and we saw Nathan earlier the same day getting his a** kicked by Warren! But it DOES beg the question: Where the frak is he?

We know he's involved one way or another: He's in one of the Rachel pic, and the Dark Room has the Prescott name written all over it. But, still, despite the next target being supposed to be Victoria, he was NOWHERE to be found at the party. And despite Chloe receiving a text from Nathan hinting he was at the junkyard, he wasn't there, and it was probably Jefferson sending the text using Nathan's phone.

So, where do you guys think Nathan is during the whole party? It DOES seems like he just disappeared there, doesn't it?

I can't answer that question, but I can add another mystery: if you got Nathan suspended earlier in the game (episode 2), his jacket is on the couch in the Dark Room in episode 4, implying he was there recently. If you didn't get him suspended, the jacket isn't there. What does it mean? I have no idea.

Nathan's e-mail to Victoria makes it sound like he's really looking forward to the party. You can see his truck in the parking lot (plate SXFTNDR) with a new paintjob, but...Nathan doesn't seem to be anywhere in the party or nearby.

LOL, seems like you did a lot of research! But you're right: The mystery gets a little bigger with those clues added to the mix...

But I might have a theory about the jacket: If he's kicked out from school, seems like his dad is quite mad at him. He probably forbade him to stay in the house, too, so the Dark Room was the only place left where he could live? That could be it.

Eventho there was no jacket, was there a tire track. Cause my case nathan's jacket was there

Or, As you said, probably jefferson knock nathan down, grab his phone and text chloe saying he will dispose all the proofs. Guide them to the junkyard, and kidnap max ;<

Good question. My personal bet : he killed himself during the End of the World Party.

Here's the clues that brought me to this possibility :

1- From the letter of his doctor in the Dark Room, the email from his dad and his Blackwell Academy files (unacceptable behavior, drawings, etc.), Nathan seems to be very sick mentally. He needs help and he doesn't get it.
2- Because of his psychological distress and also that all clues point towards him as the prime suspect of kidnapping/abuse/murder, Nathan could have concluded that the only way out of this mess is by committing suicide.
3- His suicide is carefully planned and because he's rich, he wants to end his life with style. He can afford a ''decor'' and The End of the World Party is the final result.
4- Where he is : Remember the restroom near the Vortex Club VIP section? The last stall is occupied and there's a waiting line. You can hear a girl saying that the person inside has been sick for more than an hour. But Max can't hear anything from the stall.
5- How he did it : Stuff himself with diet suppressant/laxative pills (probably the same pills that he uses to mix his drugs). In his room, Max can see he ordered a huge amount of it (100 pills).
6- To explain the email he sent to Victoria, I'll just quote Psychology Today : ''Positive mood change : Just before a suicide attempt, when the individual has made the decision to kill herself, she may appear much calmer, happier and more relaxed. That's because she is no longer in turmoil. Suicide seems like the "perfect solution.''

Therefore, R.I.P. Nathan Prescott. :(

There's a bra hanging off the side of the stall. Maybe Nathan hung himself by bra.

Haha! yes, that bra. Maybe it was a way to keep people away from the stall (like a tie on a doorknob) and increase his chances of killing himself without being disturbed. Even Max seems disgusted when she's near of that stall. :P

I think it is Jefferson who used Nathans phone to text Chloe. I don't know where Nathan is. But I think Jefferson probably knows.
