I always thought it was suspicious that Bonnie didn’t show up. Especially because Scott had mentioned in an interview that Bonnie was his favorite. As we have all learned in these games, there is no coincidences. Everything has a meaning and a main character missing has to be important.

Honestly, the “I Miss Him” bit just made me sad, cause that means Freddy is able to miss people. The other three don’t seem to show affection, but Freddy does, even remembering his lost friend, not just programming. It’s so sad, but also shows how much Freddy cares about his friends. I just wonder if Bonnie was like Freddy, before Afton infected it. Caring about children, and his friends, before he was slowly warped, eaten away, by the virus. Edit: Chica does show concern for Freddy, checking on him and stuff, as someone told me (thx for the correction), and the other two have obvious personalities. I wish we could’ve seen their personalities more often and more directly before they got taken over, like we do with Freddy.

This definitely makes a lot more sense than “Monty decommissioned Bonnie because popularity, ” and it ties in very neatly with FNAF lore. It wouldn’t make sense for Monty to do that because HE would be decommissioned for being too aggressive. And if he wanted to destroy animatronics to be more popular, it would make more sense if he were to target Freddy since he’s the head of the band.

I think Bonnie being used to Vanny and Glitchtrap is a very good way to tie in the story of Help Wanted and Security Breach together. It also is a little funny: Springtrap took Bonnie’s place in FNAF3, and he technically did it again with Security Breach

I see many ppl in the fandom are questioning why Vanny's hack didn't affect Sundrop, but affected Moondrop. Here's my theory. When Gregory tells Freddy that the animatronics are trying to do him harm, it astounds him. Freddy tells Gregory that the animatronics are "not programmed to harm guests". This safety programming was obviously put into all the animatronics to avoid disaster. However, I think that this programming was done extra carefully on Sundrop, seeing as he's super close contact with guests. Sundrop, therefore, knows he is hacked, which is why he desperately tries to keep Gregory from shutting the lights off and is so quick to ban him from the daycare after he does so. Moondrop has much less contact with kids, he just kind of makes sure they sleep. So that programming wasn't installed as carefully in him. The virus may not have been able to break into Sun, but got to Moon.

I think Bonnie could’ve been taken apart and had his parts used to repair Scrap/Springtrap’s original body which is why Burntrap looks almost like a mix of new and old parts. Because, why would Springtrap need a charging station if he wasn’t a robot like the others. Sure, Spring Bonnie was still an animatronic but, we don’t know for sure if they charged like the new ones do. Idk

[darkfire]

That's why the game needs a story DLC. One where we control Bonnie and we find out what really happened. Bonnie is my favorite character and I really wanted him to appear in this game.

[CherryWisienka]

Have you seen what Freddy says after he's taken to the endoskeletons? He's questioning his existence even implying that he might not be the first Glamrock Freddy.

[Fandom_Weirdo]

Bonnie's design seems to be shown on the bowling sign. Another thing that could explain Bonnie wandering around against his programming could be that he is possessed. Children are going missing so it is a small chance that one decided to try to possess an animatronic but was caught and demolished by Vanny.

[Dargonhuman]

To expand on the "Bonnie was infected first" theory and combine it with "Monty killed Bonnie", it's possible that Monty somehow found out that Bonnie was infected and, being Monty, destroyed Bonnie thinking he was protecting himself and the other animatronics from Glitchtrap, not realizing that the entire system was already being infected.
Monty attacking Bonnie was never about jealousy or wanting fame, it was an act of defense and self-preservation.

[BlackTearDrop]

I want to know about this staff meeting everyone was talking about in the logs. It seemed ominous. I was half expecting to find a room or hall filled with dead bodies that had been gassed or poisoned.

[Black.Rabbit_]

I find it interesting how Afton always portrays himself as a rabbit when could simply have killed people as Venassa.
Makes me think it could be linked to why he got rid of bonnie

[parsonsburner]

I love how everyone is freaking out that Bonnie ain’t in Security Breach…but neither is my homeboy Foxy…😔

[bonnietherd]

I really like how you didn't blame it all on Monty like everyone else. There could be a deeper reason why Bonnie went missing and I really like the idea you came up with. It is different and something I haven't heard of before.

[darkwind]

I think this theory makes sense, but I'd also add that I can see a slightly darker addition to it. The fire did significant damage to the Springtrap suit, possibly making it impossible to control or come back in that current state. The new form even shows hints of repairs done to the exoskeleton. Wouldn't be too hard to take parts from another bunny animatronic to replace them. Use Bonnie as a test for control, lure them to the old site, and scrap the bunny for parts to rebuild. That's why he was found destroyed beyond repair. The animatronics ingame do wither, but it doesn't seem to affect movement or functionality enough to warrant a complete decommission. But being scrapped for parts certainly would

[indigothecat]

I'm so thrilled that someone else saw this as a possibility, too. The original "theory" was that Monty destroyed Bonnie out of jealousy and wanting to be more popular, also cause he's the most violent of the 3 animatronics in the game. However, it doesn't really make sense as there are a few things that don't line up. 1, this happened after-hours, so all of the animatronics would be in their rooms on lock-down. 2, Freddy shows affection for and says he cares about all his friends, including Monty, and says that they aren't acting like themselves lately, and normally would never hurt anyone. Finally, 3, we've pretty much established that in a rough time-line, Bonnie being decommissioned happened quite some time ago, before things really got bad at the Pizzaplex, as nearly all of Bonnie's imagery in the facility is gone save for Bonnie Bowl, and also that the Glitchtrap virus (which causes massive personality shifts and violent tendencies) was deployed into the 4 main Animatronics recently based on Freddy's dialogue.

In conclusion, I 100% agree with the theory that Bonnie was an end-stage Beta test for the Glitchtrap virus.

[spencertang]

Yknow… I never thought about this until recently but in a way, this signifies Scott’s retirement in a way. Bonnie was his favorite animatronic out of all of the core four. Seeing that he was removed from the game coupled with Scott’s retirement before he could see the game through seemed to me that it could symbolize a core character being removed (albeit probably not for long) from the game. References can be made about him, but as of rn, he’s outright gone.

[Zarton]

There is a chance that Bonnie may have resisted the glitchtrap virus like freddie, becoming more sentient and went exploring to find the source (most of the attraction areas are designed around the animatronics personality). When he went into monty golf, Glitchtrap used Monty to decommission him to prevent it from finding out anything and dumping the head case to the blob (monty had gotten a lot more violent)

[sweethistortea]

I think the reason Monty has anger issues is because he’s stuck in the shadow of Freddy and Bonnie. That would explain why he trashes his room when things don’t go his way/a show gets messed up.

[princesskristan]

When Freddy said that he missed Bonnie, that made me sad. I hope this puts everything to rest because I'm over kids giving Monty and his fans shit for no reason. Besides, Bonnie was the most aggressive one but people forget that or just are really new

[lylia]

I personally think that “bonnie not following protocol” isn’t right because chica walks out her room at night to go eat garbage bonnie just wonders around so why would he be decommissioned for that if chica does the same thing?
