The forest is Apeture Science and the pink and blue unicorns are scientists studying Charlie [[MemeticMutation for science]]. It also explains why there was no candy inside of Candy Mountain - The candy was a lie.

This explains ''everything''. Every character except Charlie seems to have tremendous and terrifying cosmic powers. Their motivations are utterly unknowable to normal people. Charlie has no obvious powers, and he is surprised/frightened whenever something out of the ordinary happens (like flying, or breathing underwater). Obviously, Charlie was once human, but he somehow found his way into the Land of the Fae, and he was... changed.

** Actually, Unicorns are usually considered divine in nature, though they do tend to get lumped in with fairy tales just on the basis that [[spoiler:they're not real]]. Being gray/white where the others are pink and blue, it's entirely possible that Charlie wandered into Arcadia at some point and now the entire plane of existence is fucking with him.

As mentioned earlier and in the main page, in the second video, the unicorn say, "The man with the hat sent us! He told us many amazing stories!" If you look closely, then Carl could be the whole reason why this is even taking place. Being the sadistic sociopath that he is, he's probably the one to tell Pink and Blue what exactly to do, leading Charlie into these places, so that he could steal one of his objects. Carl could even possibly being the one to send these two to torment Charlie, since he's busy in the real world making everyone's lives miserable. Alternatively, the man telling them these "amazing stories" could be Paul, telling them all about Carl.

** My second theory is that the blue and pink unicorn are trying to ''create'' the robot unicorn, using Charlie as the base. First, they stole his kidney. Then, in the third episode, they steal his horn. Eventually, when enough organs have been "stolen" and Charlie is on the brink of death, the two unicorns are going to do some kind of InspectorGadget or RoboCop kind of operation. Thus, the robot unicorn will be born and might even be under ''their'' control. Hell, the game itself could even be their doing, trying to see how far their little experiment (read: Charlie) can go.

When we see Charlie wake up in the first Charlie the Unicorn video, it can be interpreted that Charlie is asleep and is several dream levels down, implying that he's in Limbo. The pink and blue unicorns can be seen as either his projections of his subconscious or fellow unicorns sharing the same dream as him. It also seems implied that whatever he sees in the video series (the Leopluridon, the Banana King, etc.) are his enemy projections, and the only way to defeat them is if he does whatever the pink and blue unicorns say to do.

* Alternatively - Charlies died at the end of the original short, inside Candy Mountain, and since then he's been in hell, being tormented by two demons in the form of those annoying unicorns. Note that things get much more surreal and nightmarish in the second two videos.

By the standards of this world were seeing, Pink and Blue are perfectly normal inhabitants, its Charlie who is out of his mind. We are seeing the world through his eyes so even though Time travel and random portals are a normal occurance, random things which serve mysterious purpose are all over the place and the Blehblehbleh are real and dangerous creatures, To Charlie they're as strange as we believe them to be.

[[WMG: The blue unicorn is [[Comicbook/{{Watchmen}} Dr. Manhattan]] and the pink one is HaruhiSuzumiya.]]
The entire forest, its inhabitants, and everything that happens are due to these two super beings' imaginations; they're acting out their creative fantasies in a fabricated world where they are in total control.

Charlie is a character combining aspects of [[DeadpanSnarker Kyon]] and Rorschach so they have a foil to play off of.

It explains why Charlie got his kidney taken away at the end of the first video. He couldn't keep up his payments for the genetic opera, so Rotti Largo had the pink and blue unicorns lure Charlie to Candy Mountain to take away his kidney for falling behind on his payments.

[[WMG: Charlie is being possessed by the biomass in the Kremlin from {{Metro 2033}}]]

Charlie was a normal American tourist who was just enjoying Moscow when a nuke dropped. He managed to survive by hiding in the Metro tunnels. Confused and afraid, he gathers equipment so he can go to The Kremlin and see if there is any government still alive. He then went into the basement and the biomass took control. The usual method of making control of the person (The Fantasy World, Pink and Blue) usually worked with other people (They just went along with it) but the chemicals needed for the whole euphoria part don't work on Charlie's brain, causing him to realize how absurd the whole fantasy was.
