The Nanny Affair Theory Page



Welcome to The Nanny Affair Theory Page. This is a place where you can discuss confirmed, debunked, and unconfirmed theories from the The Nanny Affair series.

Current & Unconfirmed Theories

 * The Parent Trap (1961 and 1998 films) / Au Pair (1999 film): Some players theorize that the plot will be similar to the movies, where the father of the twins/children was engaged to a woman who disliked the twins/children (and the feeling was mutual). The twins/children then had to show their father how awful his fiancée was and break them up.
 * Subway: In Book 1, Chapter 2, Sam freaks out once he/she learns that MC and the twins took the subway (which he/she has a strict rule against), even though MC explains that it was the only way of getting home at the time. It is possible that the subway brings back bad memories for Sam and might have even had something to do with his/her wife's death, or foreshadows that something bad will happen in the future if they take the subway again.
 * Exposing Sofia: After the revelation that Sofia was cheating on Sam in Book 1, Chapter 14, it is believed we can use this information to take down Sofia once and for all.
 * Sam's parents: It is believed that Sam's parents will be antagonists as they will try to force him/her to marry Sofia, otherwise they will give the position of CEO of Dalton Enterprises to Robin. This is strengthened in Book 1, Chapter 14, when Sam explains that their engagement was their parents' idea, and that his/her father will only give the company to him/her if he/she marries Sofia, otherwise the company will fall into Robin's hands. Sam wants to give the company to the boys once he/she retires, and he/she believes Robin will not do the same if the latter takes over.
 * Jordan will become a love interest: While many players believe he/she will eventually become a love interest, some pointed out that the narration will say the book has only one love interest if you don't import Book 1's data. Additionally, the character's gender is predetermined by Sam's gender, as opposed to other gender customizable love interests.
 * Marriage: Similar to Baby Bump, Book 2, many players predict MC and Sam will marry by the end of Book 2.
 * Stranger: Many players believe the woman who appeared in Book 2, Chapter 18 is Addison, Sam's first wife, or a relative of hers.

Confirmed Theories

 * Sofia is the Big Bad: Given the way Sofia has treated the twins and the MC since she first met the latter, it is believed she will be the big bad of this story. This is confirmed in Book 1, Chapter 19, when she outs the MC and Sam about their affair.
 * Sofia's lover: It is possible that Sofia's lover is Robin (see theory below about Robin and Sofia working together). This is also confirmed in Book 1, Chapter 19, when you find her and Robin together in a bathroom.
 * Saboteur: Players believe that Robin is the one who sabotaged the MC's project. This is confirmed in Book 2, Chapter 13, as he/she sabotaged not only the MC's, but Sam's as well, to get ahead in the competition for the company.
 * Jordan will be a villain: While some players believe he/she will end up as a stalker that is obsessed with MC, others believe he/she may be working for Robin or Sofia in order to get revenge on Sam. This is confirmed in Book 2, Chapter 16 as MC realized Jordan is working with Robin.
 * Robin: In Book 1, Chapter 4, the player gets to learn more about Robin, as they spend time planning Sam and Sofia's engagement party together. In this, the player discovers Robin was basically adopted by the Daltons and considers Sam to be his/her older sibling. But, s/he also shows some jealousy toward Sam as part of a sibling rivalry. This jealousy could lead Robin to become a villain in the story. This is confirmed as in Book 2, Chapter 13, he/she becomes jealous that Sam has achieved everything without putting in nearly as much effort as him/her, which leads him/her to destroy Sam's prototype.
 * Trilogy: Many players believe the series will conclude as a trilogy. This is confirmed on October 25, 2021, as PB confirmed that TNA will receive a Book 3.

Debunked Theories

 * Sofia's Involvement with Robin: Due to how Sofia has treated MC throughout the book and her, and Robin, not attending the gala in Chapter 12, it is speculated the two are working together to expose and take down Sam for control of the family companies. This is debunked as Sofia refused to work with Robin in Book 2, Chapter 7, and Robin sabotaged Sofia's performance in Chapter 13 after failing to persuade her to work with him/her.
