Matthew Patrick (aka MatPat) gave one final surprise to the fans of his "Theorists" YouTube channels by featuring Five Nights at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon in one of the six endings of Patrick's final Game Theory episode as presenter.

The video, uploaded on March 9, included the first of six endings, which the video called the "Lore Keeper Ending." In it, he and his wife, Stephanie Patrick, were seen driving off to a house in an undisclosed location after signing off as presenter for the final time and officially marking his YouTube retirement.

Eventually, MatPat got out of the car and knocked on the door of the house, only to be opened by Cawthon himself.

"I've been expecting you," Cawthon told Patrick in the video. "Come, we have much to discuss."

The final scene depicted Patrick entering the house before labeling it as the first of six endings Theorist Media produced.

Patrick - who announced his retirement last January and made several more videos in the past few weeks as part of the transition - would be handing over presenter duties to the creative directors of his company's YouTube channels: Tom Robinson (The Game Theorists), Forrest Lee (The Film Theorists), Santi Massa (The Food Theorists), and Amy Roberts (The Style Theorists).

Other Wacky Endings

The other ending scenarios depicted the Patricks' staff descending into a riot in their absence (Chaos Ending), featured a Nyan Cat-inspired video meme where MatPat was riding Music Man alongside Sans from the game "Undertale" and Pope Francis (Meme Ending), depicted MatPat descending into a frenzy, claiming that he or Stephanie were robots after all (Insanity Ending), and the couple allegedly killed by an unknown entity (Horror Ending).

A sixth ending, which Theorist Media called the "Real Ending," was the behind-the-scene aftermath of the end of filming the Game Theory video, which concluded with a message from MatPat himself.

Cawthon's GOP Lean

According to The Gamer, Cawthon does not often show his face on camera, making Patrick's final video as a presenter the very first time he was seen in a video.

It was further revealed that he was a particularly private person, especially after he was forced to step back from FNAF and the gaming industry as a whole back in 2021 due to harassment he faced after his political donations were revealed, showing that he predominantly supported Republican, anti-LGBTQ+ candidates, which in turn, led to him admitting he was a supporter of Republican presidential nominee and former US President Donald Trump.

"I supported President Trump because I felt he was the best man to fuel a strong economy and stand up to America's enemies abroad, of which there are many," he said at the time.

"Even if there were candidates who had better things to say to the LGBTQ+ community directly, and bigger promises to make, I believed that their stances on other issues would have ended up doing much greater harm to those communities than good."
