== Summary: The Mysterious Cassie Notes==
'''Cassieiswatching''' is the name of a YouTube user who garnered notoriety for "herself" after posting two videos in September 2006, featuring locations from the [[Lonelygirl15]] videos [[Swimming!]] and [[In The Park]]. Because these locations in the Los Angeles area were believed to be known only to the [[LG15]] production staff and cast, a great air of mystery surrounded cassieiswatching (and remains to this day) as to how its producers came into possession of such knowledge.

The Creators of the [[Lonelygirl15]] project quickly disavowed any connection to cassieiswatching [http://www.lg15.com/lonelygirl15/forum/viewtopic.php?t=718], but for several weeks, numerous ''[[cassie]]'' fans speculated that the disavowment was an aspect of the "This Is Not A Game" tradition of [[Alternate Reality Game]]s, which cassieiswatching is believed to have been.

[[The Creators]] of [[Lonelygirl15]] did not immediately address this speculation directly, though moderators at [http://www.lg15.com/lonelygirl15/forum the official Lonelygirl15 forum] stated that the forum [[Admin]] offered assurances that cassieiswatching is not directly related to [[lonelygirl15]]. [http://lonelygirl15.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1135&start=30]

The cassieiswatching story eventually moved into the {{wikipedia|MMORG|MMORPG}} {{wikipedia|Second_life|Second Life}}. The non-eventful nature of [[Breeniverse Timeline|October 12]] in [[lonelygirl15]], in addition perhaps to numerous hijack attempts, appeared to cause cassieiswatching's producer to put the project on hiatus, leaving many of its fans now ready to believe that it is an entity independent of lonelygirl15 after all. The unconfirmed theory that the "[[cassie]]" of cassieiswatching was merely an artifact of late-introduced character [[Frank]]'s schizophrenia appears to be the strongest candidate for the series' solution.

Much later in the official storyline of lonelygirl15, it was hinted that cassieiswatching's videos were indeed made by [[Bree]]'s friend [[Cassie]], but rather than a supernatural origin, they are an elaborate prank pulled by a mischievous girl.

In the Revelation 2 video there can clearly be seen the hands of a man fixing a lure. This bears the question that if these videos were done by a young girl, where did these hands come from? It could be some kind of stock footage or Cassie may have had someone working with her. One interesting thing is that the lure being fixed is an aphid. This could be a random foreboding of things to come or it could indicate foreknowledge of that which is shortly to occur.

The Puppetmaster, or creator, of Cassieiswatching has never been revealed. Suspicions have been aired regarding [[Glenn Rubenstein]], creator of [[OpAphid]]; [[The Creators]] of lg15 themselves; [[Grant Steinfeld]], who was an early part of the LG15 creative team; and [[Alli Danziger]], the actress who plays [[Nikki Bower]]. However, all of these persons have either explicitly or implicitly denied any connection to Cassieiswatching, and no one has come forward to claim responsibility for the series.

==Origin ==
[[Cassieiswatching]] posted her first video on September 12th, 2006. The creation of cassieiswatching appears to be inspired by two events:

(1) The [[lonelygirl15]] video [[Swimming!]] dated August 29th, 2006 contains three scenes in which the characters refer to a girl named Cassie. In the video, [[Bree]] asks [[Daniel]] about the fate of a girl she knew from high school. Daniel says he doesn't remember this girl. Bree unsuccessfully tries to spark his memory, and then says she used to walk the track with her and that other kids were mean to [[Cassie]]. The last scene contained a somber tone that contrasts with the rest of the video, which was lighthearted and intimate.

(2) The unveiling of [[lonelygirl15]] as an interactive multimedia production [http://lonelygirl15.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36] and not a real video blog on September 7, 2006. The YouTube page for the first cassieiswatching video, [[This Is My Story Now]], contains the tags "[[bree]]" "tells" "lies" in reference to the news that lonelygirl15 is not real. The video ends with a voice saying "come and get it," commonly interpreted as an invitation to lonelygirl15 viewers to participate in an [[ARG]] (Alternate Reality Game).

The game leveraged the use of multimedia and interactive content to generate clues for the participants. Clues have been discovered in two videos, an altered [[Bible]] page, a voicemail message and several puzzles using morse code and anagrams.

===[[Virginia Heffernan]]===

A New York Times blogger, Virginia Heffernan, who had been extensively covering the story of lonelygirl15 in the summer of 2006, reported on cassieiswatching's first video before it was released in [http://screens.blogs.nytimes.com/2006/09/12/lonely-girl-and-friends-just-wanted-movie-deal/ this entry], describing it as "[a] renegade lonelygirl-spinoff, which has some attenuated ties to the original". When asked about it through e-mail, Ms. Heffernan said:

<pre>"I was tipped off to it in weird ways: Morse-code text messages, Skype
IMs with a mysterious name, and that screwy audio file. The only
proof that what the person was saying was true is that he/she/they/it
had a photo and the coordinates of the swimming hole, so I believed
that there had been some contact with the original creators. But who
knows?"</pre> [http://www.lg15.com/lonelygirl15/forum/viewtopic.php?t=727#7178]

== Cassie Is Watching Clues ==

''see [[Cassieiswatching clues]]''

==Character Development ==

===Canon - The Official Cassie===

[[Cassie]] has been referenced in four [[Lonelygirl15]] videos so far: '''[[Swimming!]]''' (Aug. 30, 2006), '''[[My Helper]]''' (Sept. 27, 2006), '''[[Bree Phone Home]]''' (Dec. 18, 2006), and '''[[Miss Me?]]''' (Feb. 4, 2007).

In the '''[[Swimming!]]''' video, [[Bree]] has the following discussion with Daniel:

[[Bree]]: Whatever happened to that girl [[Cassie]]?

[[Daniel]]: Who?

[[Bree]]: That girl, she was in your class. You know?

[[Daniel]]: I have no idea what you’re talking about.

(other dialog)

[[Bree]]: Did she graduate?

[[Daniel]]: Who?

[[Bree]]: [[Cassie]].

[[Daniel]]: Who is this girl?

[[Bree]]: She was in your class

(break)

[[Bree]]: ... PE together.

[[Daniel]]: What'd she look like?

[[Bree]]: I don't remember.

[[Daniel]]: Why would you even bring it...?

[[Bree]]: I don't know what I'm... alright, just forget about it. I don't know, we used to just walk around the track together. 'Cause everybody was so mean to her. You know? Do you want to go?

[[Bree]] is perceived as an imaginative but socially immature girl, and [[Daniel]] is a practical and introverted guy. The dialog between them suggests a mystery about [[Cassie]]. Daniel, an intelligent and observant individual, should be able to remember a classmate (especially since they live in a small town). Daniel could be lying, which would alter the interpretation of the mystery, but there is no reason to believe he is withholding information from Bree. This has caused two lines of speculation: (1) Cassie disappeared due to foul play, possibly related to a cult (as many victims of cults are loners seeking acceptance from others), or (2) Bree has a split personality and Cassie is the other half.

In the '''[[My Helper]]''' video, [[Bree]] says the following:

"The only girl I've ever really been friends with was [[Cassie]]. She used to come over but the whole religion thing kinda freaked her out. And once I went back to home-school she stopped calling me."

This video may have impacted the cassieiswatching game development. The game initially left open the possibility that [[Cassie]] was a victim of a sacrifice related to [[Bree]]'s occult religion, but this video has all but eliminated that theory as plausible.

The '''[[Bree Phone Home]]''' reference may have been [[the Creators]]' way of giving [[LG15]] viewers closure on who or what cassieiswatching was. Bree explains that while they were friends, [[Cassie]] was prone to doing pranks like prank-calling strangers and whispering creepy things like "I'm watching!"(one of cassieiswatching's trademark phrases). The two of them got in trouble for the prank calls when some of the angry victims of the pranks called [[Bree]]'s house using caller ID. Bree ended up taking the blame when when her furious mom confronted her about them. After that, Bree stopped really talking to Cassie. It is worth noting that in this version of Cassie, she is described as girl who liked to pull creepy pranks. Coupled with the mention of her use of cassieiswatching's catchphrase, it's not a stretch to suppose that the official explanation for cassieiswatching is that it is another creepy prank from Bree's old friend Cassie.

===Is cassieiswatching a benevolent or malevolent character?===

The behavior of cassieiswatching could be described as an anonymous informant. She uses direct and indirect methods of conveying information to the participants. The information is oriented to the history of [[Cassie]] and the fate of [[Bree]].

===Is cassieiswatching alive or dead?===

Speculation that cassieiswatching is dead originates from the disembodied filming style of her two videos and the line "But [[Cassie]] does not rest in peace" from clue #7.

===Differences between the storylines===

Adaptation of the [[Cassie]] character by cassieiswatching is increasingly divergent from the Cassie character referenced in the lonelygirl15 videos:

- cassieiswatching appears to be stalking the Bree character, however neither [[Bree]] nor [[Daniel]] have been aware of the whereabounts of Cassie for a year or longer.

- cassieiswatching has suggested being a victim of a cult ritual in clue #7, however in the [[Lonelygirl15]] "My Helper" video (posted after clue #7 was discovered) [[Bree]] says [[Cassie]] was a friend until "the whole religion thing kinda freaked her out".

-As posted on Frank's Website:(http://canyouhearher.blogspot.com/)

"Hello to all. This message is from [[Blogspot Frank#Kaye|Kaye]], [[Frank]]'s wife. I am sorry to inform you that [[Frank]] passed away last night.

....

Also, I can assure you there is no [[Cassie]], [[Bree]] or other person who was actually in [[Frank]]'s life at the end. Unfortunately, [[Frank]] saw and heard many people who were not there, and he couldn't tell the difference between those hallucinations and people in the real world. The police and the manager at the motel have said that there was no evidence of a person in crisis who [[Frank]] was actually helping. It is common for people with [[Frank]]'s condition to invent dramatic situations."

There are many that believe that [[Frank]] is not really dead. It is believed by many that [[Frank]] faked the posts from Kaye as he was seeking to get away from the madness that had found him on his blog in the form of many abusive posters. The question is if [[Frank]] is indeed alive, will he and/or cassieiswatching ever return.

==Gamejacking ==
Some of the cassieiswatching clues have been interpreted to show evidence of an Alternate Reality Game phenomenon known as "[[gamejacking]]". The change in the first video's description to "TOO SLOW. I DON'T PLAY CARDS. YOU ALL FAILED. I HATE YOU." and cassieiswatching's YouTube profile to "i don't play cards" has been interpreted as a denunciation of the {{wikipedia|tarot}} card clue.

'''Daniel:''' We left [[The rented house|the rental]]. It felt too risky now that we know... You know, let me start at the beginning. There are two things we know for sure. One, there's a hit out on us. (''Cut to the video of [[Michelle Clore]] talking to the camera''.) Our names are basically on an [[the Order|Order]] hit list. If you want to ascend, if you want to become an [[Elder]], you have to...kill one of us. (''Cut to Steve running from [[Outta Here]]''.) Jonas was targeted in England... (''Cut to the shooter from [[Crazy Border Crossing!!]]''.) The rest of us were targeted here.

(''Cut to Daniel''.)

The second thing we know? We know who it is. We found out this morning. [[Taylor]] hacked the state DMV and got the car's registration. It's a Secret Service car that provides protection to - and you're not gonna believe this... (''Cut to a shot of a poster saying "Vote EDWARD SALINAS for US CONGRESS"''.) Edward Salinas. He's a local politician running for US Congress. I mean, the Order's infiltrated our corporations, and now our government? How high does this thing go?

(''Cut to Daniel on his laptop''.)

It's been a while since you guys saw Taylor, so I'm gonna let her explain how she hacked in. Taylor, you're on. (''Daniel looks confused as his computer sits silent''.) Taylor? I swear I had it a second ago. What the hell?

(''Daniel grabs the camera and turns it toward the laptop's screen. Electronic noise is seen and Salinas is suddenly on the screen''.)

'''Edward Salinas:''' Keep moving, if you want to. Nevada, New Mexico, Idaho... Wherever you are, I'll be waiting. Keep up the pace, but I ''will'' win this race. I ''will'' ascend to higher office. And remember, vote Salinas for US Congress in November. Oh, wait... That might be a little difficult for you.

(''The video cuts out. Cut to Gina, Steve, Jennie, and Jonas looking over Daniel's shoulder at the laptop''.)

'''Daniel:''' The signal was broadcasting directly into my IP address. But now it's just gone. Like we never got it.

'''Jonas:''' This guy could get to us anywhere. I mean, even for the Order, this is--

'''Steve:''' It's a whole new level. We came to the States to escape. Those were the days, eh, Jonas?

'''Jonas:''' Yeah. Kind of makes me wish I was back in London.

(''Cut to Jennie on the laptop as Steve paces in the background''.)

'''Jennie:''' Salinas is hosting a fund raiser at a hotel tomorrow.

'''Jonas:''' Well, this is our chance to go after him.

'''Gina:''' What?

'''Jonas:''' Yeah, it's the last place he'd expect us to be. You- You saw the video. He thinks we're on the run, out of state...

'''Daniel:''' Come on, Jonas, he could be bluffing! Salinas has only been one step behind us this whole time. Which might not be a coincidence... if there's an inside man.

'''Steve:''' You're not back to that again, are you?

'''Daniel:''' Lot of phone calls, Steve.

'''Steve:''' Yeah, I told you, I was phoning a mate.

'''Daniel:''' Okay, prove it. Let's see your cell phone.

(''Steve takes his cell phone out of his pocket''.)

'''Steve:''' You need to start trusting people. (''Puts his phone on the table''.)

'''Daniel:''' Yeah, maybe I should. Now how about you press redial and put our minds to rest?

'''Jonas:''' Steve, you don't have to do that. Daniel, you're being stupid.

'''Daniel:''' No! Let him make the call. Press redial. Seriously. Press redial and w--

'''Jonas:''' Dan- Daniel, please.

'''Daniel:''' What? I'll forget all about it. Just press redial.

(''Steve grabs his phone angrily off of the table and hits the redial button''.)

'''Jonas:''' Steve...

(''Steve's phone is on loudspeaker. It dials and then a voice says "You have reached the [[Hymn of One]]. Tell us your eternal song."''.)

'''Daniel:''' You're leading them right to us.

'''Steve:''' You think I told him to shoot me to make it look good? I was- I was phoning some old friends at the Hymn of One, trying to get them to break away from it.

'''Jennie:''' But why didn't you just tell us?

'''Steve:''' 'Cause I was afraid of the exact reaction he's having now. It's no wonder your friend [[Sarah]] [[Adios Amigos|buggered off]] with that [[Carl]] guy!

'''Daniel:''' No, you have no idea what you're--

'''Jonas:''' Daniel! Daniel, come on! Alright? If he was really working for them, do you think Salinas would kill his inside man?

'''Steve:''' Hey, you want more proof? (''Grabs his phone''.) Here. (''Throws the phone''.) I'm not the one you're after, okay? Salinas is! I will help you anyway I can, but you have to stop him from ascending. (''Walks away''.)

'''Jonas:''' Good job.

(''Cut to Daniel walking after Steve''.)

'''Daniel:''' (''Sighs''.) Steve is right about one thing. If we go to that fund raiser tomorrow, and if we can grab Edward Salinas, we might end this thing.

'''Greg Gallows''' is a popular lonelygirl15 fan known for his videos, participation in [[Cafe_Coco%2C_Nashville|Maddison Atkins]], and direct shoutout from [[Daniel]] in [[The Beast's Turn - "MMYB"]] (Nov. 9, 2007), which he responded to in {{youtube|_6X-aQkiUxw|Danielbeast's "MMYB Request" (Gutter Grillz)}} (Nov. 11, 2007). In it, he used clips from a variety of fans, in addition to his actual MMYB request. The song he chose was a remix by [[Glenn Rubenstein]] of "Grillz" by Nelly, and "Junkie" by the Jane Does, which was used in the famous early lonelygirl15 video [[Swimming!]] (Aug. 29, 2006). Since Swimming! was the video which spawned [[cassieiswatching]], and thus an explosion of related fiction, his decision to include it furthered the "community" feeling of the video.

In [[Lonelyjew15]], Greg also portrays a friend of Anne's, Greggerz19.

During a live in-character event on January 23, 2007, JenniPowell told BreeFM via telephone that Jonas sent a text message to his friends indicating that Greg Gallows is a mole, and betrayed Jonas and Daniel's location to Lucy. Hence, Lucy's appearance at the fountain at Ghiriadelli Square asking about them with photographs. Included with that text message was a photograph of Greg speaking with Lucy.

Some people believe that the Order hired him as an informant, and used the MMYB challenge as a cover for the watcher tattoo he obtained. It would also explain the video he posted where he openly announced that he was fired from his job and was forced to remove, on the spot, most of the videos that he'd made. Many people thought this to be odd, especially since the tattoo video and firing announcement happened within 2 weeks of each other. Then, in January, he revealed that he'd moved to Los Angeles and shaved his head, saying he needed a job and wanted to look more professional. Many fans believe that all of these elements point to Greg becoming an apprentice Watcher for the Order.

However, others see Greg simply as an extreme fan of the series who wouldn't dare sell sell himself like that. In fact, they point to Jonas and his well documented history of poor decisions and bumbling assertions.

'''I'm Here To Help''' is the two hundred twenty-eighth video in the lonelygirl15 [[List of Lonelygirl15 videos|video series]].

==Transcript==
(''Spencer is sitting in his car eating a loaf of bread.'')

'''Spencer:''' Have you ever seen that commercial where that guy is in his car and he's like screaming and he's pounding on his steering wheel? And then he says something like, "I'm sorry, I must have low blood sugar." (''Spencer starts laughing.'') And then he's like, "Well, how 'bout some Chinese food?" It's the funniest commercial! (''Spencer continues laughing, then stops abruptly, looking nervously at the camera. He continues eating his sandwich.'')

Uh, anyways, I just wanted to say, "Hey," to everyone I met in chat over the weekend. So, hey! You guys are really cool, and you helped me understand what's going on with [[Jonas]] and [[Daniel]] and [[Sarah]] and [[Taylor]], and of course your friend [[Bree]]. Those guys explained it to me, but you guys explained it more... thoroughly. Thoroughly... (''He ponders this word.'') So, thanks! If you weren't in chat, then you probably don't know what's been going on... a lot!

[[All Wet|Last Friday]], Daniel and Sarah went to this [[the yacht club|yacht club]] and found some documents that belonged to my Dad, who was a research scientist named [[Isaac Gilman]]. There was also a letter for me, and I want to say thanks to Daniel for posting it for me.

It's dated December 16th, 2006. (''Reads from his laptop'') "I hope this letter finds its way to you, Spencer." So, there were a bunch of other letters in that plastic box. Quite a few documents that describe my Dad's research. The bummer is that some of those documents that might have had some information that could help your friend Bree were water damaged. Look, I know [[What Up Blogosphere!|I said]] I didn't want to get involved in all this stuff, but after reading my Dad's papers, I kind of feel like it's the right thing to do. My Dad would want me to help you guys.

Listen Daniel, I know you don't think anyone can ever read those papers, but I don't know, maybe I can make out some of it! It is my Dad who wrote it, and I happen to be a scientist. So um, I don't know...maybe you can post it? And I don't mean to bug you, like you should do it right now, but you know, maybe later this morning...or today. And then, tonight when I get home from [[Neutrogena|work]], I can look at it. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm probably the best person to interpret my Dad's writings. After all, he is my Dad. Am I repeating myself? Sorry.

(''A man in a suit pokes his head through the window and begins to talk to Spencer as music plays.'')

'''Spencer:''' That was Terry. Always has to know what everyone else is up to. Well, it's almost 8 o'clock, so I should get going into my office. But, um, I just wanted to say that getting involved in all this stuff makes me feel like Cliff Sawyer when he entered the other-dimensional world of Khom'ad. Very cool, right? (''Nerdy laugh.'')

==Notes==
*Spencer's first video was notably poorly edited. This one was edited using much more advanced techniques, such as slow motion, and superimposed music in the beginning.
*There are a few times where Spencer talks about his father in the present tense, which is weird as his father is deceased.
*The song featured in this video has been previously used in an [[He's a monster, I promise!! | LG15 video]] by [[Jules]].
*Cliff Sawyer enters the "other-dimensional world of Khom'ad" in a [[Pop culture references#References_to_Books|book]] by Henry Kuttner called '"The Well of the Worlds". It was published in 1952 and is the last full science novel he and his co-writer wife, C. L. Moore, wrote together.

Jessica Lee Rose

208.57.100.32: /* Child of Anchor Cove */

'''Jessica Lee Rose''' (born April 26, 1987) is the actress that plays the character of [[Bree]] in the Lonelygirl15 [[List of Lonelygirl15 videos|video series]]. The [[Down The Rabbit Hole: The Hunt For Bree|discovery that Bree was played by Jessica]] prompted [[The Creators]] to come forward and tell their story.

==Pre LG15==

[[Image:DarlingSweetheart.gif|thumb|Closing credit from "Unleash the Fury"]]Originally from Salisbury, Maryland, much of her upbringing was in Mount Maunganui, New Zealand. Jessica attended Mount Maunganui College there from 2000-2001, then was homeschooled while attending an acting class at Studio 111 in Auckland.

In January 2004 at 16 years old Jessica moved to Auckland to study makeup at 'The Academy of Film & Television Makeup' while continuing her once a week acting classes. Her goal out of makeup school was to work with Peter Jackson, which she achieved in December when she worked on '''King Kong''' as an extras makeup artist for a week. She signed at one point with the Clyne Modelling Agency.

After Jessica's parents divorced in 2004, Jessica moved to Salisbury, MD in May 2005 to stay with her father while saving for school. She soon enrolled in the [[New York Film Academy]] at Universal Studios in Burbank, California. While at NYFA, she had roles in several student productions. She starred in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cFNwwTGYdc Unleash The Fury] (along with classmate and friend [[Amy Aitken]]) and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUu9sflmwHs In The Deep] ([[:Image:JessicaTakesAim.gif|picture]]).

==Child of Anchor Cove==
Jessica was living in Los Angeles, after graduating from NYFA in April 2006, and looking for work as an actress when she found a listing for an independent film project called [[Children of Anchor Cove (listing)|The Children of Anchor Cove]] on Craigslist. She was one of about 80 actresses that auditioned for the lead part. After two callbacks, she was offered the role of Bree.

Jessica was asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement and was told that the project would consist of a series of videos released over the Internet. She was intially disappointed, hesitant, and almost turned down the project. In film school, actresses were warned to be on the lookout for scams, but she felt she had little to lose and after looking at YouTube and other video blogs she became more comfortable with the project.

She was originally not being paid for the project but as lonelygirl15 became more popular she and co-star [[Yousef Abu-Taleb]] received a salary so they would not have to work as waiters to support themselves.

The Lonelygirl15 series of videos has been a scam since day one, people feel betrayed, so they have been asked numerous times to "stop the bullshit", quoting user vb from YouTube. They continue to publish videos in YouTube and Lonelygirl15.com, the ratings and fame went to the floor after the scam was uncovered by another user.
