Jigsaw / int_14beeefd	type	Darker and Edgier
Jigsaw / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: After the extent that Saw IV got into, Jigsaw manages to be darker, even if it's just slightly. The film features a military veteran among the cast, who, while not showing any significant mental issues, has had a very traumatic experience in Fallujah. Some of the victims' backstories also involve pretty tragic incidents, including a car crash after which the survivors suffered and the fall of a family after one parent deliberately murders the only child and places the blame on the other.

Jigsaw / int_15b2cab3	comment	Tempting Fate: The barn players watch as a revamped Billy doll rides a bike towards them and lets out its signature child's laugh. Ryan gets in the sarcastic line about how the doll's "not creepy at all" — which is followed by the group being pulled into a new "game". Anna seemingly saves Mitch from the blade shredder trap he is in after stopping the motorcycle powering it by jamming a bar into its wheel. Mitch is elated that Anna saved him and keeps saying "[she] did it". The bar then immediately breaks away, and he is promptly killed.

Jigsaw / int_19851b86	comment	The Sociopath: Anna could qualify as a high-functioning one, as she murdered her baby and framed her husband for it, which led to him being Driven to Suicide, while showing no remorse or regret for what she has done. Her empathy towards the other test subjects could've been pragmatic Bait the Dog attempts to get them to trust her and help her escape. When she turns the gun on Ryan to save herself, she appears to be an Apologetic Attacker towards him, but her weeping as she aims the shotgun were likely just Crocodile Tears for her to pass herself as a victim rather than the self-centered and heartless witch she truly is.

Jigsaw / int_1d9099cb	comment	Deadly Disc: The first test in the Barn involves the players being dragged by chains locked around their necks. At the other end of those chains sits a series of rapidly-spinning buzzsaws. The players must give a blood offering to stop the blades from killing them, which involves sticking something out and letting that bleed on the blade. Logan does not hear the rules and gets cut up rather badly. He survives only because of Jigsaw, who saves Logan's life out of a twisted sense of "fair play".

Jigsaw / int_232aa245	comment	Laser Cutter: The film's final trap: a collar lined with laser cutters that will slice the remaining two players' heads if they do not confess their sins to Jigsaw. Turns out the trap is a setup — Logan, who is the new Jigsaw, put Halloran into the trap to force out a confession that he let criminals walk free. One of those criminals killed Logan's wife two years prior. Despite getting the confession, Logan notes that Halloran broke the rules twice by not confessing all his sins and forcing Logan to go first. He ultimately lets the lasers on his collar go all the way down, slicing through Halloran's head.

However, during the climax, Halloran proves himself right when it turns out that Logan was faking at being a victim in the Laser Collars.

She keeps up the lie as long as possible and shows no remorse for doing so, despite her husband being Driven to Suicide. The sole possible exception is Ryan, who is something of a Jerkass up front and ends up being closer to a Jerk with a Heart of Gold by the end.

In the barn game, she's told that she was injected with poison, and has to choose between one of three needles to cure herself before all the victims end up being hanged: antidote, saline solution or acid. It's implied that she knows which one is the correct answer to not choose the one with a 3.53 number on it, but she's too frightened to do so. As the chains around her and the other subjects' necks begin to pull upwards, Ryan injects all three syringes into her. They are freed, but Carly painfully bleeds out and dies for her troubles.

While justified due to the game about to start and everyone about to be killed, it clearly wracks at Carly's nerves. When she comes upon the syringe labeled 3.53, she halts as if she's onto something, like she believes this to be the one that will save her. However, Ryan's nonstop demanding and threats to just jam all three into her neck push her into a panic and she refuses to choose. While YMMV on this one, and Carly does appear to be a Dirty Coward for refusing to choose and risking everyone's survival, Ryan antagonizing her costs her her life.

Jigsaw / int_863fa679	comment	What Happened to the Mouse?: This film does not address the the previous film's reveal of Lawrence as a secret accomplice of the original Jigsaw. It instead focuses on Logan as John's first apprentice who predates all others. What happened to Bobby Dagen, after his wife and colleagues were killed for his lies of being a Jigsaw survivor? When the police captain orders John's grave be exhumed, to assure the public that he's truly dead, they discover Edgar's body. We know Logan is responsible, but we never learn where John's body is.

Just before the second trap of the barn game begins, Anna tells the other victims that she and her husband simply lost their child, but it's revealed near the end that she actually asphyxiated the baby intentionally and tricked her husband into thinking he did it accidentally, which drove him to suicide.

Then along came this film, which dropped a bomb on everyone by revealing that Logan was the first Jigsaw apprentice, not Hoffman. Fans were baffled at this reveal, since it disrupted the timeline the previous films had, and when the issue was brought up to the film's writers, they admitted that they did such a reveal because knowing the complete timeline didn't make any sense for it (since the film was released and is set years after the previous ones), and they were hoping that nobody would notice the error.

It's revealed she was neighbors with John, who witnessed how she smothered her baby to death because the crying annoyed her, and framed and gaslighted her husband into thinking he did it. This causes her husband to be institutionalized and commit suicide out of guilt. The reason Jigsaw picked her for his game was to force penance on her, but what makes her worse is not only does she not feel remorse, but she believes she did nothing wrong and doesn't deserve what's happening to her. Her last act is selfishly trying to kill Ryan thinking it'll ensure her survival, when it only dooms them both.
