VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [Dr PinkCake]

[dalli_x]

But why would Tommy and Jacob know if it wasn't public knowledge? Quinn is Sage's VP so yes I could understand her knowing while Sage is trying to keep it quiet, Rusty is president of another frat so maybe it's something that needs to be known at that level for some reason (obviously Tybalt knows, we don't know if Magnar knows), but I don't see any logical reason why Tommy and Jacob would know Sage is a Burke if she only uses the name Morgan. If they know because Quinn or Rusty told them then what's to stop Quinn and Rusty telling everyone else, basically neglecting the reason that Sage uses Morgan anyway.

It's clear that DPC had Jacob know so he could point back to the subtle hints like Jacob cockblocking MC with Sage at the party, but then tried to retrospectively walk back Sage's family being public knowledge because he's trying to use the same contrived plot device three times (MC not knowing that Jill is a Royce, MC not knowing that Sage is a Burke, MC not knowing that Lynette was a Burgmeister) and it was getting a bit stupid at this point. So he's come up with the idea that Sage uses Morgan so MC would have no clue she was a Burke even if he knew her surname, but that totally contradicts Jacob knowing that Sage is a Burke right back at the start of the story.

At the end of EP4, we find out so Quinn knows that Sage is a Burke. Quinn knows where Sage comes from and asks her to rule with the preps party. Quinn and Tommy only fell out after the preps party and were real friends before that. So you can assume that Tommy also knew that Sage is a Burke.

You write about Jacob yourself.

What can stop the people who knew beforehand that Sage is a Burke? Sage can get quite angry, she's fiery. Also, let's not forget that Chad probably knew beforehand that Sage was a Burke.

The reason Sage is trying to hide her Burke last name is explained in EP8 after all. She wants to make it on her own and not rely on the family name like Rusty and Tybalt. Legitimate reason in my opinion.

Since it's pretty easy to reach the relevant convos early in Season 3, I grabbed some screenshots.

Bro that's not even a terrible theory, it's just nothing. That has less substance than string cheese. Burke calls Priscilla (whoever she is) because of his conversation with Maya, where it's revealed the "free tuition" rumor is much too public for his liking. The MC is never mentioned, he has nothing at all to do with this entire situation other than providing moral support. Even if Stephen obtains the video of MC fucking Jade, it still doesn't pose any problem. In fact, it gives him an incredible bargaining chip for the divorce proceedings. But MC is still not even tangentially related to whatever Priscilla's deal is.
And even if it were true, what does it matter if Sage dropped off this package that realistically Stephen or someone on the inside would take care of? She doesn't bring it up after learning Neil's name, we see no inner thoughts alluding to it. She even has the perfect segue to mention it when MC is talking on the phone with Neil while Sage is in the room watching the weather bitch on tv. There's also the fact that if MC turns out to be a Burgmeister, it would be Rusty's dad who sent the package, not any of the Burkes.

I don't see the Priscilla thing as being that simple. Stephen Burke needs to talk to Priscilla and not the other way around. So it's clear who is higher up in the hierarchy and that's Priscilla, not Stephen Burke.

The bad thing is that only the individual situation is considered instead of the entire game. One thing that is very strange is for the MC to get his college acceptance only two days before college starts. I don't think the MC submitted his college application on short notice because you don't do that on short notice. But the MC wasn't on the waiting list either. So you can assume that someone intervened on behalf of the MC. Such a person is quite high up in the hierarchy. Stephen Burke or higher. I can only think of 3 people at the moment. Royce, Burgmeister or Priscilla.

You always assume that Stephen Burke is the bad guy. You can believe what you want, but I don't.

"You write about Jacob yourself" I only wrote that Jacob knows Sage is a Burke, not how he knew that Sage was a Burke, my point is that if Sage only uses the name Morgan and not Burke because she doesn't want to be associated with her parents and brother then Jacob should not know that Sage is a Burke.

The fact that Jacob knows that Sage is a Burke suggests that it was public knowledge, which means that Sage using Morgan not Burke is a retrospective change by DPC to cover MC not knowing, after he had already pulled the same trick with MC not knowing that Jill is a Royce and is likely to be pulling the same trick with Lynette in the future. DPC realised that having the same trick with Sage as well makes it rather ridiculous and makes MC look like a dumbass, so he gave Sage a different name that she uses in public to explain why MC didn't know Sage was a Burke, but that then leaves the question as to why Jacob knows Sage is a Burke if she only goes by Morgan.

Priscilla is Quinn. and they already talked. Burle shut down the " tuition " program.

Sage being a Burke is public knowledge the same way Nick Cage being a Coppola is public knowledge. You don't know until you look into it, you hear it from someone else, or this person tells you directly. I used Cage as an example because just like our feisty redhead, he avoided using his famous last name to be his own person and sidestep nepotism (to varying degrees of success).

Again it doesn't really explain Jacob knowing, he has no reason to have looked into it himself, if he's heard it from someone else then it's likely all around the college and there's no reason for MC not to know and Sage's use of Morgan is pointless and there's no reason for Sage to have told Jacob.

 

[felicemastronzo]

Tbh I don't really get that impression either, it's more like he's desperately trying grasp onto the newly learned fact that Sage only goes by Morgan as a way to validate his ignorance of who her family is. But just for the sake of argument, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt here and say he did know about Morgan beforehand. Still a dumbass though.

I can't remember exactly what she said, but besides not wanting to coast off the Burke name like Tyballs, keeping the Morgan name is a reminder of where she came from. It provides her own identity, and maybe even secretly, it's a way for her real parents to find her.

Thank you for sharing the incriminating scene. To me it will have a patch put on it by dpc to cover the strangeness of the fact that MC, even though he hangs out with hots and Sage, doesn't know the girl's last name.

It remains a strange situation and a victim of all the contradictions in Sage's relationship with her family . She is extremely grateful to the Burkes and wants to show them that she can handle herself, only to avoid them, speak ill of them, and demand that her father give Maya a scholarship just because she tells him to

And rather than use their last name, she prefers to cling to a past she'd rather not talk about... Ok...

 

[TomUK]

This is a joke, I can't tell you or even know if anyone knows what everyone's surname is, it's never really come up. Most of the characters you're never told what they are, there's only a few that are known, so if no one ever calls someone by their surname, then why would you expect people to know it, after all, the MC has only been there one semester at this stage, after all, you don't find out the MC's surname until Sage asks him after he finds out that she is a Burke, but he knew her surname was Morgan, so he wouldn't bother to ask others what her surname was as he was under the impression it was Morgan.

As for Jill's surname, I don't think it ever comes up until it did, not one DIK told him, although I don't think they knew he was dating her until after the Halloween party, others, do we even know their surnames, I think the only ones we now know are the main LIs, I think even with the DIKs we only know the MC's, Rusty's and Derek's surnames, I couldn't tell you what Tommy's, John-boy, Leon, Jacob, Nick or Jamie's surnames are. Same with the HoTs, don't know theirs either except for Sage, Josie and Maya.

I don't know if he's shut it down, because I think it's his business and he has clients who will want that college pussy still.

But he likely needs to stop payments because of the divorce proceedings.

It is kind odd that Quinn goes from talking about taking over the HOTs next year to yeah I might not even be here.

What if Jacob knows about Tommy, who knows about Quinn. Jacob and Tommy talk about Sage in EP2, don't they?

 

[iamcomming]

who is priscilla?

 

[TomUK]

Well the drug business hadn't been going that well so she is re-evaluating her plans, she was only in the college thing to get new customers to start, now she has gotten feelings for the MC, in one route, it's probably going to hit her hard when she finds out what happened at the end of CH10.

 

[ChipLecsap]

Quinn

 

[anonnyscouse]

But that discussion is prompted by Jacob already knowing that Sage is a Burke, it's conceivable that that is where Tommy finds out but it's Jacob who definitely already knows before that conversation.

Also which DIK was it that brought up that MC had fucked both mother and daughter when Sage does the "walk of shame"? It wasn't Tommy, it wasn't Jacob and it wasn't Rusty. It was either JB, Jamie or Leon, so that's another person who knew Sage was a Burke despite the fact that she's supposedly only known as Morgan.

 

[ChipLecsap]

Do not trust Lily if she tells you to not fall in love with her.

She has already fallen long ago just need to get her to admit it.

She likely the type of girl who will throw you under the bus, if it's beneficial for her.
Hopefully MC this time, can hold his part of the arrangement, unlike with Sage

Jacob's been at B&R for a while, he's had plenty of time to learn she's a Burke in a variety of ways. And Sage only using Morgan applies to more situations than just fellow students not knowing Stephen and Jade are her parents, like getting a job on her own merits for example. In any case, the point is that it's not top secret. She'd rather that people don't know, but it's not the end of the world if Jacob knew.

To be fair, Stephen is a shit dad and person, Jade is crazy and has similar anger issues, and Tybalt is a total cunt. The name Morgan represents a family who gave her up, but also can be whatever she imagines them to be, positive or not.

Quinn's change of heart is why people think the restaurant is shut down. Combined with Stephen going from willing to help Maya out then doing a complete 180, and Quinn storming out of his office, it seems pretty clear.

Quinn

Priscilla being Quinn is boring conjecture. "Oh Stephen is talking to someone named Priscilla, must be the only girl involved with the free tuition scheme! You know what else, I think Nick is the traitor!"

Priscilla being Quinn =,
it was the jocks all along who destroyed the mansion, there wasn't a grand scheme behind it. regular girls who get upset about the Walk of shame are the one spreading shit on the disk, and etc.

there is no fucking traitor, just a set up, so the diks will turn on mc and he will banished only to prove himself at the end.
the game is simple, and it has simpel answers

But Tommy already calls the MC "motherfucker" in EP6.
