I often analyze the Life Series through a lens of personal agency because I think it's a broadly applicable theme and it's also a theme that matters to me personally, so it's always stuck with me, maybe more than a lot of the fandom, how little agency Grian had in Third Life.

Scar and Grian's deal was in of itself was wildly unhealthy for Grian, I think. Obviously Scar didn't go out of his way try to make things hard for Grian, in fact, a lot of the things Grian did for him because of their deal were things Grian decided himself were his responsibility. But unconditional servitude is a very limiting and possibly even dehumanizing thing to agree to, and it clearly got to Grian. He frequently spoke about being unhappy, about wanting to leave, about how much he hated having to do what Scar says. And while some of that was for show, I also think there was a lot of very real regret over being caged, over giving away so much personal agency in a moment of guilt and obligation.

The first real choice Grian made was to stay with Scar, despite whatever resentment he'd built earlier, despite how much part of him wanted to leave.

This was punished quickly when Scar betrayed him, and possibly in the worst way possible. He tossed out a piece of paper, said whoever catches it lives. Grian couldn't catch it before Bdubs did, Grian couldn't convince his one ally not to help stab him to death, Grian couldn't fight back when it was two against one. He was helpless, in many ways in that moment. Nothing he did meant anything, nothing he did could have stopped it, Grian's first act of personal agency after so long being caged was to choose to stay with Scar, and Scar stabbed him for it while Grian tried (and failed, because nothing he did would have stopped it) to convince him not to.

Scar tried to make up for it (well, depending on whether you view scar's "you may slay me" as genuine or strategy) in a way I think is pretty meaningful all things considered. Scar kneeled, and he gave Grian the power to do what he would, let Grian choose. Which is possibly the best thing Scar could have done, when I see Grian feeling robbed of personal agency as such a big Thing in his Third Life pov.

But it didn't matter in the end. The spectators wanted a fight, and for one reason or another, Grian felt bound to their wishes. Maybe he would have wanted to kill Scar, or maybe he would have wanted to go home together and keep living, or maybe he would have wanted a fight if he could have chosen it. But Grian couldn't, he didn't have a choice. Grian was forced to kill Scar, and then he threw himself off the cliff, because there was no other option, nothing else to do.

I just feel like Grian is robbed of agency at so many turns in Third Life in a way we don't think about all that much.

Bingo Card

B-L: Jimmy is the only Lifer to never do worse than their previous season

B-I: The only person to eliminate the previous season's last place is Grian, and the both times he did it, the person got last for the first time in the season before.

B-F: The team size of people who were alone in the previous season has been steadily increasing, with Joel, Pearl, and Martyn all being on teams of 2 after being alone, and Scar and Lizzie teaming with each other and Jimmy after being alone, making a team of 3. If this comes true, the pattern will either be 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, or 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4

B-E: This post explains it, but basically Ren is somewhat likely to team with Bdubs, Etho, Gem, Scott, Impulse, Jimmy, or Lizzie, and Gem and Jimmy are the only ones who are also likely to team with Ren

B-7: Before Wild Life, Pearl always teamed with people who just had there worst season and placed in the double-digits, which is Mumbo, Skizz, Martyn, BigB, and Scar, and Skizz is the only non-winner Pearl has not teamed with

I-L: I made a prediction for the placements next season, putting Mumbo last and Impulse eliminated third. BigB was between them, but Impulse and Mumbo's data is less varied than BigB's, so they are more likely to place low

I-I: Mumbo's teams sizes have decreased by one each season

I-F: In every season since Double Life, BigB has had a face on his or his team's base, including using his own head as a base

I-E: I really only put this because it was technically correct last season, but BigB has been the last member on his team 2 out of 4 times, putting him above 11 other people, tied with Gem, Pearl, and Joel, and below Martyn, Ren, and Grian

I-7: If the first red and first yellow are two different people, the first red always survives longer

N-L: Grian almost always witnesses at least one of Jimmy's deaths each season

N-I: For each season, 9th place was: Cleo, Scar, Scar, Scar, Etho, and Gem. Cleo and Etho are Scar's parents in Limited Life, when they are the Clockers, and Gem subs for Cleo for an episode, so she is technically a Clocker

N-F: Jimmy teamed with Grian, Martyn, and Scar in the seasons after they won, and has teamed with Scott and Joel before they won, and has teamed with a winner in every season other than Double Life

N-E: Impulse has been eliminated by the eventual winner in every season since Last Life, until being eliminated by Etho in Wild Life. However, Joel did cause Impulse's final death as a zombie in Wild Life

N-7: Martyn, Pearl, and Grian all placed 2nd or 3rd while on Mumbo's team

G-L: In every season, the previous season's fifth and eighth places are eliminated by the winner or the environment. Pearl and Etho placed 5th and 8th in WL, but I predicted Etho to win, so I think Pearl is more likely to be eliminated at all

G-I: Every odd-numbered season has had three lives

G-F: Cleo typically teams with people who placed high in the previous season, only teaming with someone who placed below 7th once (Scar). According to the second chart in the link in B-E, Cleo likely wants to team with Pearl, Tango, or Bdubs (5th-7th). Cleo just teamed with Pearl in Wild Life, so Tango and Bdubs are the most likely

G-E: The third player to eliminate someone has place first or second in every season, as well as Simple Life

O-L: Going back to the B-E chart, Gem has teamed with people who have placed in the top five, and Grian, Ren, and Cleo placed 2nd, 3rd, and 4th

O-I: Ignoring Double Life, Cleo has been on three teams of 4 and two teams of 3, and 4th place has been on a team of 4 three times after placing 4th and a team of 3 once, so Cleo has a 67% chance of being on a team of 4

O-F: Even though I expect Etho to win, he always places in the bottom 50% in odd-numbered seasons and the top 50% in even-numbered seasons, which is actually the opposite of Bdubs (before WL)

O-E: Jimmy has accidentally killed someone in every season except for Last Life and Double Life

O-7: Grian is the only person to get an elimination in every season he has been in
