Bethany Bradley damn thats rough i’m really sorry to hear about all that. while my relationship with my dad has always been shaky, i’m thankful my mom knew well enough to put her foot down and get a divorce or i probably would’ve ended up worse than i am now. i hope you’re able to grow and move forward, best of luck

The thing you learn about divorce is two things. One: Family is no longer invincible as they always preach. You have no reason to stay and you doubt their words and love even when they say, “We’ll always love you.” Also it is like seeing someone die. Something that you expect to live forever dies in front of you. It shatters your world and brings a grim reality to you. Two: You have to take care of yourself. Even with two parents, it is like living with one or even none. You lose trust and reliance in them. You get angry and either blame yourself into depression or blame them and resent them. You can no longer depend on them anymore because they aren’t even together to help you or even capable of helping when the biggest part of their lives was broken on their watch.

My parents would argue a lot. ik people have worse story of divorced parents but damn it makes you feel soo alone and confused and I feel the whole blaming yourself for their divorce me and my brother felt like it was our fault and we still do, I was always close to my mom and I was somewhat close to my dad and I felt like maybe he thought we loved my mom more than him but thats not the case. I had a friend group where they had their parents love them and they were all still married i just felt out of place when I seen their parents happy together. I'm bad at dealing with my problems and feelings where I hate if I cry and stuff its gotten to the point where I haven't been able to cry for about a year. I've closed myself off from both parents now and they ask if things are okay and I just continue this cycle of running away

So when her dad said "were taking some time off from each other" I remembered when I was like six they said that and I felt that man

I never knew how difficult my parents divorce was on me until I saw the pain Tulip was in and realized it was my own. I never wanted to think about it, but this show made me, and I think I've grown because of it. I guess you could say my number went down.

Natural character development.

That's the whole point of the show it would be really sad if they show that went so far to make such a plot fuck it up so hard to make it a flip flop development on a moment notice

For us it was 10 episodes but for her it was months

Definitely, in fiction a character can just say and acknowledge they need help or know what they need to do, but they're not there mentally and emotionally yet, so it needs to be actually worked out.

I understand her pain, too, but not everyone has it so well in life😔

The only reason she didn’t affect Book 4 was because it was a prequel

@@l0sts0ul89 we don t know too much of his backstory. We only know that samantha abandoned him and a couple more things that mostly happened on the train. His number was lower than grace s though. So whatever his trauma or problem was, it wasn t bigger than grace s

Xach Mustel she’s in the process at least, hopefully in Book 4 we get to complete that arc 🤞

Amelia has a long way to go still. Hazel went with her because of the obvious but Amelia still feels little if anything for what she considers a 'failed experiment'.

Tulip saying the word "divorce" is really important. While it may seem like a small detail, it shows how Infinity Train doesn't hold it's punches. It deals with REAL issues and doesn't dance around them. It presents them in realistic, lowly romanticized ways.

Ashley Johnson. She's also the voice of Terra from Teen Titans and teen Gwen Tennyson from Ben 10: Alien Force.

but he is the real conductor, maybe that is the reason he thinks he is responsible for that and that he must fix it

That’s not the point the point is she is telling one one what she should be telling herself

Yeah, It's not fair

I agree to a degree, but i don't think this show is for children, for teenager is ok

for a guy who had parents who divorce i can relate to tulip as sometimes we want things to be fixed or mended but sometimes we realize it always be fathers good mothers bad or mothers good fathers bad as well as that sometimes people in their marriage wont always be happy or at least find any more grounds with each others but will always try and be their for their kids

month late but i wonder if she ever just had the inconvenience of never seeing her reflection ever again, would be cool to have an epilogue where she reunites with Lake and they pull some mirror shenanigans

@@goodboi1725 she probably got a new one assigned, one recycled after their "prime" died.

@@MidBoss666 Could be, but I like to think that she never got her reflection back, her actions had consequences.

@@goodboi1725 well, I just think they wouldn't let her run around without one for long, they do have strict laws after all. As far as consequences go, it would be far cooler if Tulip met Lake in the real world at some point.

One of my friends has divorced parents, and he saw it coming from a mile away, kinda like you. For him, he wasn't surprised and was just kind of relieved the fighting was done. What was it like for you, if you don't mind me asking.

@@Flarflenugen sorry, I literally just saw this. I was relieved at first, but then both of my parents kind of fell apart. My dad started drowning himself in alcohol, and would sometimes lash out at my mom over the phone over mundane things. My mom meanwhile started dating. She managed to find a couple guys far worse than my dad. The first was a straight up misogynist who looked down on her, the second had a bad tempor. He never put his hands on her, but he would yell and argue with her over just about anything. After about a year my parents got back together. It didn't surprise me since it was literally the third time they had separated since I had been born, but I still didn't know what to think. I ended up deciding that I didn't want to be around it anymore and moved out. Three years later they're still holding together somehow, and I'm still scraping by living with roommates. Sorry for the wait, and long reply

@@cobalt-6D it's understandable, the question I had warranted a long reply. That's sad, for you and them. Sounds like they just want to be miserable together, and I'm glad that you've realized that they are both toxic and it was best for yourself to not be around them. Sucks they can figure out themselves, but as you know that isn't your problem. Them dating toxic people or falling into alcoholism is on them, and I'm glad you are out of that. Live your best life. If they improve, good on them. But remember, you dont owe them anything if you don't want to get involved again

Angry Ryan and Min sounds Even angrier Lake sounds

@@roseevans4101 Lake is a super close second

Team Lake here, yo, but Tulip's still above the others by a good bit for me.

Jesse was good

Not only was she the best protagonist, she was also a very smart figure.

What about when _other people_ don’t see her reflection? She’d either have to explain her adventure on the train… or come up with a cover story.

@@kylestubbs8867she will be very popular with the goth girls at school because they all will think she’s a vampire LOL

Yup running around somewhere in Arizona with a big goofy kid in a school jersey jacket. The best life there is to be honest:)

@@MaeArt725 she has no reflection yeah

I haven't realized lol

@@MaeArt725 Woah. Good eye.

I'm sorry to hear that. I wish you the best to keep moving forward.

Well, I’ve seen a lot of such cases in divorce shows and movies, and I sympathize with you.

Ohhh wow. That makes just about as much sense as the “let’s not let our daughter find out what a period is until it happens to her at school in the middle of class for the first time” bullshit thing that some parents do XD. I’m not even close to being a parent yet lol but just speaking from common sense, waiting until something is already happening/has happened to tell someone who needs to know about it almost ALWAYS leads to a huge disaster and lots of drama and fighting. That was very stupid of them

Did they just not care? Or could they have worried you would react like Tulip did?

@@kylestubbs8867 if they were worried they were gonna have a big reaction then they wouldn’t have stalled it for that long, it seems like the opposite like they thought the kid wouldn’t care that much and so they didn’t bother to explain it

I found out that she was the voice actress for Petra from Minecraft: Story Mode, which coincidentally had a character named Jesse, as well.

And Gwen Tennyson from Ben 10 Alien Force through Omniverse.

Ashley johnson is the best VA ever well in my opinion atleast

That’s very interesting

Petra from Minecraft Story Mode.

It is gone! In the last episode of book one Tulip walks in front of a mirror and has no reflection!

Tulip's reflection is gone, i wonder if people think she's a vampire or something

@@yez9475 either that or they all think the mirror is broken. Eventually she'll have new reflection. Since the mirror world has replacements.

More like "I'll allow it"

She was also literally the one who shot Atticus... She WAS the danger

I missed tulip the most

Well he's doing it on purpose, he is the conductor of the train, and this car was designed to teach tulip something, help her to grow, he's been doing that the whole entire time, without tulip even knowing it.

@@shmish5818, I really liked the fact the point of the train was character development

@@doctordeathdefying132 Me too, it's great to see something unknown in their world actually trying to do good rather than trying to just be an inconvenience.

@@shmish5818 i think it's because this car was one of failed Amelia attempts. And it hadn't supposed to be here at all, it was broken from the get-go. Broken and wrong by design, alien to that train. That why it triggered One-ones conductor self, it wasn't created by him. P.S. After writing that comment, i realized how close it still relates to Tulips situation. It was his fault the car is that way, but he takes so much responsibility for it

Budgiedoreos_bad person yeah I like that too but I strangely feel at home with Tulip being the protagonist, if the series ever ended I hope the last season ended with Tulip being the Protagonist again, it just....idk... it just feels SOOOO right seeing her being the protagonist again...

@@reyalfa18 well, simon... Probably had some problems too serious and deep for the train to fix When he got the highest number he became completely insane, not being able to process the reality anymore. He was broken

Well a huge chunk of that 62 is stuff that she realized already and than in her moment of weakness fall back on it so her simply realizing going back to her old beliefs and also learning her final lesson is why it went to 0 think of the 50 something that got added as a still in calculations number that didn't set in

​@@JuanReyes-vb3tj I think its more of simons denial. though its true that he was crying and laughing like he snapped from reality because he himself was horrified over him being willing to kick his best friend off the train despite her saving him. there might have been potential for something to change if he was given time to process since Grace was alive. but he wasnt given that chance and that happens at times. dude needed a strait jacket and ALO of therapy. the train tends to teach you but you mostly figure stuff out by yourself. in the end your sins and problems are turned into numbers to meassure your worth or how bad or redeemable you are or not...but thats still a outside system judging you. like the train/oneone didnt seem MT/Lake as a person even though we know she has value and thinks like a real person. they only got her out of the train on a technicality. the train brought all these kids here and didnt give them proper guidance. sure the train had been taken over but the train was the one who let amelia on the train anyway..not realizing that her grief would make her that determined to change reality and male a car to hide in her delusions to avoid reality. like WE deem simon as completely irreedabl and that he deserves what happened to him after what he did because we know he had opportunities to change his thought process but he chose denial and to avoid reality and dig in his heels. WE saw the moments where he had opportunities to change himself and do better but instead he bunked down. he hurt people WE saw were good or could care about him like Tuba, Hazel and Grace. and he chose to be worse rather than accept the problem or change. but alot of this change was very abrupt for him. Hazel had a impact on Grace e\because they thought she was a normal kid for a while. Grace got attached so when it was revealed she was sort of a denizen it was able to create a proper crack in Grace's mentality. it also helps that the mentality was something Grace came up with on her own and she was forced with the video to comfront the source of her problems until she accepted them. plus amelia has a really high number as well so its from a authorit with a higher number. Simon got to bond with Tube but the problem is that Simon had a strong seed of distrust and betrayal and hurt directly from a denisen he cared about who he trusted. so Tuba being a denisenand we assumed making some progress with simon could have mad a crack in simon and show they are people and wouldnt betray. but its that tuba seems to trustworthy that the betrayal flogs rose for simon because he used to trust and thought samantha was trust worthy as well. he started off around tuba with a closed off heart. and he got these new ideals from the ideas his best friend grace gave him who he put trust in. he should have adjusted and changed to match the changes Grace were going through. but they have wheeled denizens before. they have a system and grace very much approved of that before. and these changes in th status quo and the order if his life upends everything. years of positive reinforment of these ideals being the right thing by grace and the situations is hard to undo. Amelia literally spend years in her plan after taking over the train and she was forced out of her delusion by one one taking the train back over and tulip helping. Simon needed to be forced to accept the situation. and put in a situation where he could ease into it without power because its obvious he'd resist and lash out. him kicking her off the train was both a deliberate choice but also his habit of lashing out and clinging to his hurt still. like a child. just like tulip had years of not really accepting the divorce well. WE dont even know what originally got him on the train really compared to grace. WE saw him genuinely cry after he realized what he did. even if it was follow by over whelmed crazy laughter. leaving her in the tap was semi a death sentence but it was more hands off but kicking her off. and we never found out what would have happened if simon and grace talked after that kick. he literally thought he killed his best friend so it makes sense his numbers went off because she would have died and he knows that. but she also didn't. and as long as you are alive things can change. Grace still cared about Simon and cried after he turned into dust. but the train deemed him a lost cause and got rid of him..like how the train was going to be fine killing MT/Lake if it meant they wouldn't need to deal with adpting the rules. WE are used to judging the humans as reemable or irredeemable based on the numbers now. that if he was killed it must mean there was no more chance that he'd be able to change. the train judged. but we also know the train is very strict and its not really fair that the train chooses who is reemable or who has value and who doesn't. to us simon is a villian, terrible and this is just karma because he refused to adapt and he killed tuba and he tried to kill his best friend. its just easier to have him die irredeemable. his habit is going into denial and digging his heels and humans have a hard time accepting when we mess up. he tried to kill his best friend. would have suceeded if the denizens hadnt helped. if he accepts the denizens are people and can be good he'll have to accept he has been hurting and killing/wheeling people for years. he'd have to accept the mentaliity that kept him going for years was the wrong one and that he hadnt thought for himself and that it was because he trusted grace too much at first. he''s have to realize he did what the cat did and abandoned grace and thir friendship thinking the orginally mentality was more important to protect this that connects to the good memories. but we'll never know if maybe things could have changed is simon and grace talked after the attempted murder since we know he really was distressed about her dying...would he have relief? like there are people who get a unhealthy view and killed loved ones out of jealousy or passion or other stuff. just to realize they were the fucked up ones in the wrong. If the train wasnt so strict and logic based on how it handles their problems. like in the end Grace still cared about simon. it was definitely karma that hit simon...but h was also just a kid/teenager in the end. on the older spectrum of that. but people change over time. and simon wasnt give enough time in the end even if he didnt really deserve forgivness. but sometimes its not about deserve. he definitly snapped and once your crazy and off from reality it makes it harder to fix yourself. but Grace also didnt die so would the relief have changed anything?

Fairy welp. Now he can't. RIP

@@KarutoZoaldyeck you are a great man :)

Tulip's VA does a REALLY good job of making her feel absolutely distraught

Listen, don’t blame yourself! You know that is not true. I’m sure that there could be other reasons why your parents are still together! It isn’t you, it’s never the children whom are at fault! It’s the parents.

I'm also the youngest, although my anger mostly comes from me just being a brat. I try to be better but I have anger issues as I was bullied through out my whole life in school. I may be immature but I can be very wise at times. Everytime something bad happens I go to my own self for advice and my parents even go to me, sometimes my older brother does. If I was Tulip, I would have fully understand, after all I'm a pretty clever person even as a child (I meant clever as in knows very well, not clever as in being intelligent). Also my parents would have killed me if I yell at them. I guess Tulip's parents are more scared that Tulip actually is, they shouldn't be scared of anything. This is their own lives not Tulip's. If they want to get a full divorce then they can, they shouldn't try to make things work for Tulip. They should also not let Tulip yell at them, they should slapped her and tell her off on how she's in the wrong here. What would Tulip do if her parents find new people they fall in love with? Would she tell them off saying "You're not my real mom/dad! I shouldn't listen to you!" Is that it? I still never understood why people get divorced, if they weren't happy then why marry each other? My guess is either they weren't sure it wouldn't work or the condom broke. I want Tulip's parents to yell back and tell her she is wrong. It may be hard for Tulip but it's harder for her parents because they have to deal with an ungrateful brat that they can't stand up to. My nephew went through a similar thing but the difference is that he is very happy, while my parents are no where near separating and I often feel unhappy, it has nothing to do with my life being unhappy but rather that I just don't feel happy even though I have everything. Sometimes I believe once I accomplish my goal I could finally be happy. But sometimes success doesn't cost happiness, but it doesn't mean I shouldn't stop trying to continue my goal. Maybe one day everything will work out for me, but until then I don't know.
