The Mandela Catalogue

A corrupted tape recording of The Beginner's Bible. It depicts an alternate version of the Nativity of Jesus wherein Satan, masquerading as Gabriel, deceives Man during the annunciation to the shepherds, declaring that he is their "true savior". The episode ends with a monologue from an unknown figure, who says that they have been shackled within a tomb of sand and pleading, 'If there is a God... please help me.'

A collection of four tapes related to the Alternate takeover. These tapes consist of a PSA about how to identify and avoid Alternates, an evidence reel regarding the death of 17-year-old Mark Heathcliff, a training video for 911 operators instructing them on how to handle calls about Alternates, and a video meant for testing the reaction of young children to specific audio and visual stimuli.

The video opens with a PSA about the dangers of leaving unsupervised children to watch TV because of harmful content on numerous channels. An example shows a woman hearing her child crying in front of the TV. She enters the room while the child can still be heard, as the broadcast warns against. Upon entering the room, the woman sees the missing child. A face on the TV smiles at her, and she subsequently commits suicide by hanging. This is followed by an emergency alert about the threat and a collection of police evidence from the incident, in which the possibility that the threat is an Alternate is ruled out.

A report for Mandela County shows the county population dropping from 15,000 in 1992 to barely 1,000 in 2009.

In a retelling of the Book of Genesis, Gabriel gives Adam an apple from the Tree of Knowledge. In 2009, after Vol. 2, Adam's ex-girlfriend, Evelin Miller, works for Dave Lee, finding the "Child Stress Assessment" tape from Vol. 1 and watching it on Dave's hidden TV. Adam argues with Sarah Heathcliff, the founder of BPS, through the "Dove Messenger" web service about his response to Jonah's death and agrees to make a memorial video. Thatcher mourns Ruth Weaver as his alternate watches from the closet. During Jonah's memorial video, Evelin discusses Adam's concerning behavior as Adam tries to talk over his own repeating voice.

Mary Magdalene, a biblical figure, is depicted in a video where guards and nuns, representing her biblical figures Joanna and Martha, encounter a cave where they discover 'Gabriel', implying Jesus is in the tomb.
