Hmm, interesting. In Prisoner Profile, Experiment 1163, Doctor said this about Pianosaurus, a rabid animal. But even he couldn't know the fact!
Pianosaurus, he has a pure soul, others can't see it. That's all. Sigh, I see the experiments as a "monster". But arts painted by Amberluvsbugs who is a concept artist of Poppy Playtime remind me that each of them is just a child. Look, their natural faces... they want a rest. When they don't pretend toys, they show themselves. They indeed work hard. Playtime makes them do it. The faces Amber painted really look peaceful.
Doctor failed in the procedure? Pianosaurus certainly has no intent to harm his friends. He is in a dream.
Doey's anger, and the result, are ineluctable things. Even if Doey doesn't do it, someone will do it. (But Doey is probably the only one who can kill Pianosaurus except Doctor and Prototype. Whoever cares about Pianosaurus dies, except them.) That no one cares about him is the best, as Doctor said.
Yeah, it's sad. Why is Doctor right? It's really strange. (Because Pianosaurus is insane, everyone sees. Sorry boy... The cause is you, Doctor, you know?)
Hoppy looks smiling when Doey holds her in his hands. But toys are always smiling, they can't change facial expression, Doey can do because he is clay. Poppy can do it too, but her material is unknown. The property of those is the reason why we can be afraid of them, in other words, a trick of horror.
Pianosaurus was in Safe Haven until Doey kicked him out. Even if he reached Safe Haven at December 2004, he could be in there for a short period of time. He is dangerous. Doey has to act quickly.
Reptiles are confusing, Doctor? Pianosaurus sees Allister Gator as a gecko, but Allister is an alligator (like his name).
I've never known Icky Licky is a poison dart frog until I found out his information.
Well, Allister doesn't look like an alligator. It looks like a doll that has thick eyebrows and jagged teeth. But if Pianosaurus doesn't know alligators, indeed he seems a child, I'm glad.
Someone says something? I don't know. This is a silent comic. But he hears something.
Why doesn't anyone run away from him? All happened in a moment?
He likes playing his music and dancing. His keys are twinkling! He is still a lively boy, as his Counselor said.
He sees a different thing completely when he is eating Bobby's body. A broken brain... Or, his mind is unbearable to reality.
The Player or the GrabPack is Bron. And a tambourine. Bron, #1199 is certainly a former employee, but he knows it? Or color? Bron's nails and eyes are blue. GrabPacks have red and blue. I think the Bron symbolizes the fact that the Player is a former employee.
Oh, I've also never noticed Bron's true color. He has blue! ref. Orientation Notebook, p.44, 98
He combats the conditioning staff, I read that, and then thought it was a horse. Horses can also challenge trainers to fights! Horses intend to "play", and that becomes training. Of course, he was playing the music for the staff, and dancing with them! And meals are chat. So he eats whatever fits in its mouth regardless of appetite, because he's friendly. He can make friends with anyone, unlike you, Doctor.
What Pianosaurus believes, this is a scenario Playtime drew, what they told him. They might make a intended experiment, but something was wrong. I think he had a good time in Playcare. If that is not, he isn't in a good dream like this. To children, what they can imagine and see are reality. He has been in the dream until the very end. That is his fate.
Everyone doesn't see everything as the same. Pianosaurus tells me that well.
I've assured Innovation that this is norm. After all, we are dealing with a field so new it has no name, much less a clear path. - Abridged Testing Notes, Bruno White's Central Domain

The Innovation department is the headquarters of special project.
Herley reported the experiment to the Innovation.
Leith always says he's the head of Innovation, not Playtime. It seems to say "I'm a keeper of the giant secret."
Leith hides the Innovation by appearing on VHS tape. Until Chapter 4, there doesn't show any members of the Innovation in any material except Leith himself.
Had the Innovation existed since Elliot founded the company?
Leith, he seems to be very busy, but sometimes he met some witnesses of the incidents and even the experiments, such as CatNap and The Doctor. Yes, he understands the weight of his burden, and he directs his workers, his business.
The Innovation, especially Leith, they had to know everything.

This Initiative will produce no more experiments such as this. Measurable improvements have to be made. - Prisoner Profile, Experiment 1163, Ch.4
It snaps at perceived motion, eats whatever fits in its mouth regardless of appetite, combats the conditioning staff, and it CANNOT even play its insipid piano rhythms in TUNE (perhaps one of the others from its line would have presented better music). - Prisoner Profile, Experiment 1163, Ch.4
I used to be in a band, then the asteroid hit! - 看板, Ch.4
Originally released as part of a full set of musicians, Pianosaurus served as the harmony for the group, playing out his beautiful piano tunes through his keys/teeth. - Character Bios, Poppy Playtime Official Store
The Bigger Bodies, they are born to work at Playtime and are set each of tasks. Therefore, the Initiative needs the intelligence to do the task of a subject.
#1188, it seems CatNap has kept his intelligence even after the procedure. This "outcome" is within one year after Doctor began the Initiative in 1990. That's crazy... A lot of children sacrificed, a tight schedule... Doctor and Playtime are insane. Yes, Doctor is real genius, but he is also choosing to use his gift with a hard way.
They... were seriously going to get profit of the company by "giant toys" who are children. Really? I have no words.
Project: Playtime is not yet translated into Japanese as of July 21, 2025. How much is this effect? I don't know. I think the two VHS tapes that appear in the game are important to fans, especially Doctor's or Prototype's, or Boxy's!
Leith's "twofaced" is a social skill, and normal as a business person or a human being. Harley doesn't have it. He is as he is. What Elliot said lack of humility. It's a difference between the two and why they succeeded or failed in business. I think Doctor looks down on Leith's "adult" manner...
Declining profits, failed experiments, people are constantly seeing things they shouldn't. How is that anything less than complete failure on our part? It's pathetic. Now we're understaffed, safety protocols are being abandoned, workplace incidents are common. We can't avoid a lawsuit forever. - VHSテープ Can you hear us? Can you see this?, Project: Playtime

Measurable improvements have to be made. Otherwise, I will have to re-evaluate the effectiveness of those in my purview. - Prisoner Profile, Experiment 1163, Ch.4
Well, for YOU, I have the project of a lifetime. - Pierre's Invitation, Bruno White's Central Domain
その通りになつたと思ふ。
Doctor said I will save this company, but ultimately Leith, Eddie, Stella and a few staff of the company considered he was an unwanted person. That's ironic... Doctor is not able to care about anyone. It's too dangerous.
He was a burden on the company... The fact that they bet on success in his procedure tells me that weight.
You're not nothing to me. You're Poppy. And talking with you. Like this... I know it doesn't make any of what they do right. It can't. But it makes me feel like a piece of me is still here. No matter how small they try to make it. - VHSテープ Ollie, Ch.4
Why did Ollie want to know Poppy's feelings? It makes me think he is Prototype. He asked Doctor the same question in the VHS tape Log 24459.
The experiment Playtime did made a part of his identity. It reminds me that Project: Playtime's tape said IT WAS YOUR DOING THAT MADE US.
Prototype confesses his hope to Poppy. That's strange. Maybe, he wants to make any orphans into the same body as he has.
He killed or made other experiments kill all employees of Playtime, but he didn't let anyone leave the factory. One of the reason is that the outside is dangerous to them, and another is, that Playtime is a part of his identity. The factory is where he must belong to. He doesn't know what the outside world is, and doesn't need it. He never wants free from Playtime.
Or, he is immortal while he is in Playtime.
So, he conflicts with Poppy. The salvation he promises is pain... Until now, what did he give anyone? What he knows is only pain...
No one explains what his kingdom is. Because that doesn't exist.
Make something useful out of the experiments who won't cooperate. Rip them open again and again until you've salvaged something. - Secondary Lab Mission Statement, Ch.4

Doctor Harley Sawyer, commonly referred to as “The Doctor”, was the originator of the Bigger Bodies Initiative, and a former pupil of Elliot Ludwig. Ruthless, egotistical, and completely amoral, he orchestrated the systemic experimentation of hundreds to pave his elusive “golden path”, only to be subjected to the same experimentation. His mind made into a prison of wires and terminals, his project stolen from him, he’d become just as much a prisoner as the experiments he created. In the years since the Hour of Joy, The Doctor has become a monster unburdened by any pretense of humanity, the final steps on his “golden path” seemingly within his reach. - Character Bios, Poppy Playtime Official Store

故に、ハーレーはOrientation NotebookのMeet the team(p.16-19)にも出てこない。大衆は彼を知らないし、知る術も無い。
My conclusion (until Chapter 4): Eddie does not touch the experiment.
P.W. who worked at their labs has never met him.
Eddie is the head of "Research"! Their boss!
Maybe that post is hiding the existence of the real head, Dr. Harley Sawyer.
Therefore, Meet the team in Orientation Notebook p.16-19, Harley is not there. The public don't and can't know him.
He doesn't understand Harley's value.
And doesn't know what Harley is doing.
Eddie asked Leith why they can't kill Harley. we need him, this is Leith's words.
On the Chapter 3 ARG document Cross-Department Report, Harley reported on behalf of Research.
Of course, Harley knows the Bigger Bodies more than anyone else, but...
His name doesn't appear in any documents and VHS tapes about the experiment.
Eddie attended the executive meetings and treated the contract of the construction of the labs and the prison.
Eddie certainly wrote Dr. White a letter, but White was Harley's "right hand", wasn't he? Why was he assigned the "secondary" lab? Perhaps Chapter 5 will explain that, but for now, I think Eddie didn't know how to continue the experiment. It's pathetic...
Eddie, there's no footprint of him in the experiment. He adheres to terms of the company. A "businessman".
I think Doctor has felt no pain humanity can imagine since he became #1354. So we can't hurt him, but he said "hurt us"... What's his pain? And what's a proper punishment for things done by him? Yes, he can feel pain, but he seems to adapt himself to the function of #1354, his new body and behavior, more than other experiments. Poppy's "revenge" hits him effectively? I can only say, Doctor will be hurt, but will never have regret. ("His new body", it's not proper expression. It's his "prison"... a brain vessel. I like his bio. He is mind only. ref. COMPLETELY AMORAL)
I'm expecting him to be the final boss. Chapter 4 ARG documents are filled by so many information about Harley Sawyer!

Poppy Playtime's theme is very hard, heavy, and most difficult. The human dignity, the sacrifice for humanity. Sometimes I am knocked down by them and feel that the game is great. Amusing, but brutal. Yes, I like games that have a theme.
A choice and a sacrifice. I expect Chapter 5 to reveal the worth of this experiment. And, I believe that Doctor will come back!
Is it worth? That is what each of the Players should think.

In Chapter 4 Cinematic Trailer: The Doctor, Harley perceives his mind keep intact. The reason is that Playtime only needed it that could fill the requirement for the project. It's irony, and pathetic. They took the dignity of a human from him, they rejected his humanity. There's also irony, they thought his personality hurt them, but there he is! They couldn't separate his intellect from his soul that makes cruel thought! And the event came... It's difficult for me to feel sympathy for him, because he has done the same to children. The same, Doctor. But you don't think so... A hopeless man. That's why I say to you, "pathetic."
I have always been right and they will understand. Yeah, that's what you think every time! (And they'd got something special in him?)
What has beaten their heads? Maybe they said "food crisis".
Playtime had to secure food for orphans in Playcare and experiments in the prison, even "Giants". It seems too hard.
Why does Prototype need any "staff" or "test subject"? In this situation? So, why did he kill all staff? The answer is, he consumed them already. In the factory, there is not even a bone. The experiments cleaned the place. And now, he doesn't have something he can give his friends.
He waited for Doctor to crack the secret this ten years. And he chose to stay other experiments' hunger rather than let them all go out for free.
Once they had a choice, once they were "free", THIS was their creation. They made hell real and trapped us BOTH here. - Harley Sawyer, Ch.4
Even Doctor can't be working without "nutrients".
Technically speaking... I still eat. Well, there is an absorption of nutrients into various mechanisms in a wall that connects my systems. - The Doctor Takeover, YouTube
Is the Hour of Joy their "revenge"? Maybe so, but I think Prototype also wanted to give others any food... wanted to satisfy them.
What can Prototype do for them now? In Chapter 4, the death screen says My kingdom is forever. Follow the golden path. And Playtime's purpose is probably "immortal". He tries to make other experiments it.
But Doctor seems to have time to spare... He doesn't seem to care about it or Prototype. Is that a bluff? The description of the tape Time says The Doctor finds himself working with an unexpected ally. He... still wanted to uncover #1006's secret? I don't know. At least, working for an experiment was not in his plan.

プロトタイプのセリフと関係あるかな?
A master and a pupil, but I feel that Elliot was a rival or a patron of Harley, though they worked together. Perhaps because of Harley's personality. Of course, I think the relationship between them is rivalry even now. Two minds, Two ways, how amazing! Two genius of two generations! (If Elliot had sacrificed a child for a experiment, their ways would cross.) "Pupil" is a word in Harley's bio. ref. COMPLETELY AMORAL
要するに、万人の利益は倫理を超越する、といふことを言ひたいんだよね。彼がエリオットに言つたProgress doesn't care for how anyone feels about it.にそのまま表れてゐて、そんなことのために遅れを取るのは嫌なのだ。
それでゐて「喜びの時間」の後のことはhell, All they want is violence.と評してゐる。彼としては「皆殺し」にするつもりは無かつたのだらうが、「喜びの時間」に手を貸したのは事実である。にもかかはらず、第三者気取りでポピーを批判できるからすごい(実際のところ「喜びの時間」がどういふ計画だつたのか、ポピーが何をしたかはわからないのだが)。
Why do you submit to their whims? Playtime hurt us. My experiments hurt us.「ポピーらがお前にさせてゐることは気まぐれだ、プレイタイムと実験体は常に我々を傷つける結果をもたらす」といふニュアンスなのだが、me(自分)でもyou(プレイヤー)でもなくusなのがちよつと気になつた。自分も傷つけられてゐる、といふのが彼の視点なのだ。
"us" he said means employees? Playtime hurt us. - It's the past tense. Not about the Player.
Harley called Playtime and the experiments "they", and himself and employees "us". "us" he said never indicates any experiments except him. He still recognizes himself to be a human...
He thinks there's a difference between other experiments and himself.
You helped Prototype or something kill employees at the Hour of Joy by taking the Omni-Hand off Warden, didn't you?
He said to the Player, You know, I never thought I'd see another like you. A human. Certainly not an employee like you. "Another" is him? Like a human?
Harley didn't stop his experiments from killing people. Maybe he was afraid of Prototype, but only he who has the Omni-Hand could let people go.
Can you blame Poppy for making hell, huh?
I'll never forget you said Remarkable, 1006 then.
Yes, his choices. He can't let the Player feel no pain, and tried to give the Player a sham choice. No pain of the Player can satisfy him!
Simon Smoke might die, but it's not an enough sacrifice to bury the Hour of Joy he experienced.
You realize the futility of this, don't you? You aren't satisfied with this result, so, what did you want?
Is Harley evil? I feel strange, he's odd. He hurts lots of children, and doesn't care about anybody, but he can feel pain, and can understand how people feel and that his actions are cruel things. He understands morality. That's why he scorns some people's attitude. He threw the questions at the Player, felt nauseating from a few security staff who had sympathy for Yarnaby, blames Poppy and the experiments for the Hour of Joy, and belittles Elliot who "betrayed" him.
He is completely evil from social morality.
He isn't misled by feelings. He seems to separate his feelings from his mind. A strong will. And, he uses even his feelings or morality for the purpose.
Harley's words would hit the Player's heart. And nobody comforts the person from them. But it's okay, this is a journey that atones for the Player's sin.
He even said I harbored no ill will towards any of my test subjects, really? He doesn't even have "ill will". All comes from his curiosity. (That's why he is called "amoral". ref. COMPLETELY AMORAL)
The reason why he blames and disdains "them" is that it's their own choices. He demands meaning of killing people... thinks "that's murder, not even sacrifice." and "lives should be sacrificed for something great." There must be reason for hurting people in him. (And he said it's The ONLY difference. Yes, yes.)
Does he know the truth of the Hour of Joy, in other words, Prototype's aim? And then he considers that's meaningless?
They made hell real and trapped us BOTH here. - I understand that he said the experiments trapped themselves and employees in the factory. Is this right? If so, he's disgusted with them. They can go out, but don't even. (But... Doctor, what can they do? What do you want them to do?)
So the bell's story is also conduction of his anger. He's even laughing, but actually cold, there's a denunciation of meaningless demise.
He said hell and All they want is violence about the present situation. That is a mental attack on the Player, but I think he really feels so.
He often says a word "backstabber", because betrayal is important to him.
He was stabbed twice by the head of Playtime, Elliot and Leith.
Elliot saw through Harley's personality, and was afraid of him, couldn't let he lead science into the future.
Harley's message is what Playtime wants to say. "We can sacrifice anything for profit of everyone."
You can feel no pain, if you're still innocence - never know everything.
He says humanity's profit transcends the morality.
Yes, Harley is insane. He met Leith in 1990, and began the Bigger Bodies Initiative soon. Just before coming to Playtime, he lived a normal life. I can't believe it, why could he do that? Did he hesitate? No, he already showed his determination in YGP. He said Don't be soft.

そこいくとEuphoric BrothersのGarten of Banbanは、まだ適切な範囲にゐると感じる。人工生命体の創造や使役は、それはそれで罪深いことではあるが、同族の子供を犠牲にするより遥かにマシと思へてしまふ。物語の中心は人間の業にもあるのだが、生命体独自の営みや価値観があり、プレイヤーが「協働」することに温かみと面白さを感じられる。キャラクターの造形がシンプル、ギャグ調、怖くはあるがグロ過ぎない描写がちやうど良い。PPTとはテイストが異なるが、対面する時の気持ちの重さで言つたらGoBの方が楽なんだよね。

A stunted mind that once showed so much promise, Yarnaby was deemed to be a failure in all ways other than the fact he survived. Don’t let that fool you though, he’s highly agile, and can be downright ferocious when angered. - 12 Days of Playtime, Twitter
A lion with a heart of gold and a smile that touches your soul! Originally released as part of a wildlife conservation campaign in the 1970s, Yarnaby has seen regular releases in the years since. Believe us when we say: Yarnaby wants nothing more than to make you his entire world! - Character Bios, Poppy Playtime Official Store
I wanted to KILL HIM, but I knew better than to believe I could. He seemed oddly glad to see I was all that remained. - Note 6, Ch.3
What's Prototype's purpose?
To give orphans immortal life? (Evolving from humanity?)
To give experiments immortal life?
To restore experiments to humanity?
To merge orphans and experiments with him?
If only Prototype can be immortal, he may think he can save others from death and pain if he merges them with himself.
Other experiments live forever as a part of Prototype.
Why did he take the bodies of Mommy and CatNap? He tries to revive them with merging?
He himself is his kingdom, interesting.
Why does he need Poppy? Why didn't he kill Poppy's friends for ten years?
The important thing, maybe Prototype and Poppy can live forever, but others die of starving or cannibalism. No people of the kingdom, what is it worth?
I think starving is one of Poppy Playtime's themes. I've felt so since I watched Monster's tutorial in Project: Playtime.
For ten years, how did Prototype's friends get food?
How does Prototype ensure survival to his friends?
"Time" he said, this may be simply, "until the time others die of starving".
Do you hear it... like I do? Off somewhere. Somewhere... far. Beyond this place. Beyond any place. A bell. For whom does it toll, you think? A wounded little pup lifts its head beneath the shadow of the master's raised foot. For whom does that bell now toll? (Laughing) - Ch.4
Doctor says "a bell is tolling", in other words, "I'm dedicating my work to humanity".
Why did Doctor tell the Player about "a wounded little pup"? What's that pup?
He tried to mislead the Player. The Player would think the bell is tolling for the pup. His aim was deriding the Player who is thoughtless, and proving the person "innocent". The pup is a trap.
In this case, the pop represents the experiments in Safe Haven. The master is the Player.
The pup is almost stepped on by the master's foot. This implies the Player will bring ruin to Safe Haven.
He was deriding the Player's thought that he or she was helping someone and Poppy's revenge was the best. In short, "a simple story".
He said Poppy's will came from "whims", and he considered that the Player who obeyed her will also had whims.
Doctor taught the Player that the experiments or Poppy would hurt the Player, and that no one was innocent, again and again. He adheres to "morality".
He hates hypocrites, they probably remind him about Elliot. And they ignore reality, sometimes they don't understand their own actions.
