So I just reread that Rachel's letter
Here's the link http://imgur.com/0f9UIFB

I don't know how I ignored this in previous playthroughs. It seems Rachel used to discuss with Chloe about her romantic relationships, or Chloe would force her to talk anyway ( "I know you'd give me that stinky eye and grill me for every stupid detail.") One thing I don't understand is this being the case, why hiding the affair with Frank?

Anyway this triggered me to think, maybe the way Chloe saw Rachel was like how Max saw Chloe. She adored Rachel and admired some of her qualities. But she also knew Rachel had some severe problems and needed her help.

What do you guys think?

That letter wasn't about Frank. 'Kind of scary, not in a "bad boy" way.' doesn't fit Frank.

^ exactly.
for example think about this part: "who's so different from the lame Vortex Club snobs"
who looks like or rather, is a snob? this is Mr. Jefferson. this letter is about him. + in episode 4, situation may be understood better: Chloe notes that Mark Jefferson is "hot for a teacher" and a bit teases Max that she can have him all to herself now because Chloe isn't at Blackwell anymore. very possible that Chloe had a minor teacher-student crush on him too, like he's admired by most people. personally, i think the issue here is that... Chloe would had been annoyed because 1) of this minor crush thingie, 2) she had a very bad reputation in Blackwell, vs teachers she was very arrogant and a troublemaker. from Chloe's point of view, falling for a teacher is likely hella dumb.

That would be because it is hella dumb and, where I come from, would cost him his job if he wasn't careful as it is an abuse of his position of trust.

Yeah, I know this letter is about Jefferson, not Frank. But in either case I find it strange she would hide these two but not others. Maybe Frank and Jefferson are more special to her?

Anyway, if Rachel is the kind of girls who would fall into scary bad boys, I see why Chloe was so worried.

Yes it was confirmed by a Dev that the note where Rachel says she found someone new it all about Jefferson. I think that is where the theory about "Rachel's Revenge" gained some followers because we all know that old saying about not wanting to be the brunt of a woman's scorn, as in she thinks you love her and then you cheat on her or leave her. Though in Jefferson's case he helped perpatrate her murder at the very least by having the whole dark room set up with all the drugs, etc.

In that one photo at of her you find at the dark room she looks extremely piss ed off and that led me to think more strongly that the storm was actually Rachel's Revenge...

Chloe said that the tornado might be Rachels revenge. Maybe its her revenge on all the people that wronged her. Jefferson, Nathan, Blackwell Academy, Arcadia Bay, so even Frank? (for supplying the drugs? She was pissed at him before as she mentioned in a letter). And she then gave Max the powers to save Chloe and let the town be destroyed. That would be deep, very deep.

Or maybe Rachel never mattered and the story wasn't about her.

Im really late to this but my theory is that this letter is forged by Jefferson.
