I\u2019ve got a new theory\u2026<\/p>\n

I was having a look at this post here when the thought dawned on me<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

In last night\u2019s episode, Edwin stated that he did not want to spend his time as a disembodied voice. That\u2019s quite the little nod to modern JARVIS and I loved it. But then, the quote was coupled with the above gif and it got me thinking. Tony was very close to Edwin, and likely the man helped raise him. Understandable. But what really struck me here is that Tony asks if JARVIS is\u00a0\u201cup\u201d. And JARVIS replies\u00a0\u201cFor You, sir, always.\u201d My question is: why would an AI system need to sleep?<\/p>\n

Now, let me just add something else in here. I had a theory from Season 1 of Agent Carter that Ana Jarvis was an AI. That was how Howard\u00a0\u201csaved\u201d her from the war and that\u2019s why we never saw her on screen. We only heard her\u2026like modern JARVIS. In said theory (though I don\u2019t know how the science would have worked), Ana would have died in the war – or nearly – and Stark would have\u00a0\u201cpreserved\u201d her in a way that she could only be a voice. Unfortunately, my theory was not correct (but I still think it would have been cool) and Ana is a real person.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Keeping the above in mind, take a look at this:<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Note a couple of things<\/p>\n

1)<\/b>\u00a0The newspaper is dated 1991.
Tony Stark was born in 1970 and thus would have been 21 at the time. Old enough to be a scientific genius, capable of creating very new and revolutionary technology.
1991 would have also made Edwin Jarvis in his 70\u2032s (given he\u2019s a similar age to Peggy who was born in 1921).<\/p>\n

2)<\/b>\u00a0Note the words circled in yellow.\u00a0
\u201cThe car was nearly totaled. It took the wrecking crew several hours to\u2026<\/i>\u201d
This accident was NOT pretty.<\/p>\n

Now, it was pointed out to me here<\/a>\u00a0that Edwin Jarvis may have been the one driving the Starks on that tragic day. Before then I was so in denial that Edwin could ever die of anything other than natural causes, that I completely overlooked this possibility. What if it\u2019s true? What if Jarvis was involved in the crash? But what if he didn\u2019t die – not completely, at least\u2026<\/p>\n

That makes the connection back to my theory and the gif about Tony.\u00a0
Maybe Howard and Maria were dead on impact, but what if Edwin wasn\u2019t?\u00a0
What if it was possible that Tony arrived on scene and found Edwin barely breathing. We know how much JARVIS means to Tony and that can only be a reflection of how important Edwin was in his life. And so, Tony would have done everything in his power to save him. Everything being turning him into a disembodied voice. Somehow, Edwin stayed alive long enough for Tony to transform him into technology. His physical self wasn\u2019t salvageable, but his mind and voice were. Perhaps I am way off, but what if that\u2019s the way Edwin Jarvis became JARVIS. And that\u2019s why Tony is so close with his AI system, because he\u2019s more than an AI, he\u2019s in a sense still Edwin Jarvis, saved by Tony Stark by the only means he could.<\/p>\n
