A while ago I saw this BATIM theory on a russian youtube channel.

The thoery is about Sammy Lawrence and his real motives and intentions.

I think this is a very interesting theory, that’s why I want to share it with BATIM fans who do not speak russian!

I translated the spoken text from the video. I am sorry if I made any mistakes!

Here is the theory:

In chapter 3 Alice mentioned that Sammy is quite a liar.

(“He was always a good liar”)

Based on this fact, let’s try again and look at what happened in chapter 2. We remember that Sammy said he wants to sacrifice us to the black demon, because the black demon is Sammy’s Lord and Sammy loves him. But the whole ritual went wrong. As a result Sammy dies at the hands of Bendy, who was mad at Sammy due to unknown reaosons. At the end we saw what was left of Sammy as well as the axe. But where does the axe come from? Our own axe has been near us when Sammy died! It seems like Sammy had the axe from the beginning. But that’s not all.

[…]

We remember that Sammy said he was tired of his body. He is clearly feeling uncomfortable in his body, to put it mildly. Acutally he is feeling uncomfortable in this whole place. And what does a liar do in order to get out of an uncomfortable place? That’s right! They LIE! Sammy never worshiped Bendy. It was just a move to distract the demon and make him trust Sammy.

We saw the phrase “It’s time to belive” in Sammy’s office. Sammy belived he could get out of here if he followed the plan he came up with.

He was using us not as a sacrifice, but as a bait for the demon.

[…]

Sammy belived that by destroying the demon it would all end and he would be able to escape.

Sammy used us as a bait for Bendy in order to kill him and to escape. That’s why Bendy attacked him. It was self-defense. That’s why we see at the end of chapter 2 what is left of Sammy as well as the axe, which he wanted to use to put it all to an end.

What do you think? Was Sammy lying the whole time?

The youtuber’s channel is called “MaXiMuS Channel”. The theory was written by Dasha (Даша) who is a friend of the youtuber.
