I think he needs a gasket replaced.
I must admit I am having a hard time not assuming this guy is the Billy everyone is looking for.

Understandable. Yet I don't trust this-- seems like too straightforward an explanation.
A Red Herring?
Not sure if anyone else has proposed this, but could it be a person undergoing a transition toward "Woodsman" membership?

*waves hand*
This is not the Billy you're looking for.
You can go about your business.
Move along.
I was hoping I would not be the first one on this sight to show my Star Wars fandom!

I think he may be the Billy that the other characters have mentioned. It's just that Billy might not be what those others think he is. We have derived our ideas about Billy from people like Audrey, Charlie, "Tina," Megan, Megan's friend, and "Bing". It is not clear that any of those people are totally real, either, including Megan's friend whose questioning stance toward Megan seemed suspicious and therapeutic, like Charley with Audrey. I felt that Megan's friend (sophie?) knew what was really going on, just like Charley does.
We also connected the stolen truck story about Billy, with Andy's earlier attempt to question the farmer about a truck involved in the hit and run. This gave us the idea that the farmer was Billy. That scene also had a very mysterious quality about it. Someone disappeared, but i don't think it was the man Andy spoke to.

Audrey's dream that Billy was bleeding suggests to me that he's the drunk.
It does seem obvious. But maybe it was intentional so that we would think it's a red herring when it's not.

I'm not so certain about the woodsman transition. I say this because we saw the first woodman float down from the sky. So far we've seen no evidence of a transition into these beings.
The first Woodsman was in the cells at Buckhorn. Then we saw one walking to the morgue, after the examination of Briggs' body.
Sorry I meant in the timeline - after the Abomb. Perhaps I'm making the wrong assumption that this event caused the first woodsmen to appear.

Yep, you are right. My mistake.
Ah crap, the owls/oils really aren't what they seem at all.

I've been pondering this too. I'm wondering if perhaps he could be being used as some sort of host vessel for one of the Woodsmen/Black Lodge Spirits to "eliminate" Naido (since shes seems vitally important & connected with the White Lodge). [Freddie Sykes may be right now in the right place, at the right time to save the day!]
I can't find an image of him but the Woodsman Evil Coop talked to next to the TV set had what appeared to be lots of oily residue coming out of his mouth and down his shirt too. Maybe its from something they drink or eat? We know they EAT garmonbozia. But perhaps they DRINK something else. The oily substance? Like the pool found near Glastonbury Grove in the original series?
Are we also being led to draw some comparison between the Drunk in the end cell/and the Woodsman who vanished in the end cell when Bill Hastings was there? Perhaps Bill was a vessel for one of these Woodsmen also which is when things started going wrong at the Briggs meeting (Ruth seems to have been the lead sleuth of their little outfit; after all she was the one with the coordinates and had discovered most of the information they had gathered up to that point). Bill may have been being used without his knowledge to find Briggs and was murdered when he returned with Cole & the others to avoid him giving any further information away. Both Bill's seem to have had their fair of rough times with evil Lodge spirits thats for sure! 😛
Also I originally suspected our Drunk MAY have had some connection to do with Tom Paige (Beverly's husband). But perhaps I'm mistaken and Tom is just a red herring/backstory filler, after a previous poster posted some less contrasted images of our Drunk in the cell. I for a second thought the piece of twine may have been some oxygen tube, similar to what Tom used to hook him up to his oxygen tank. It DOES seem like twine/string though. But the similarity is striking - not sure why he'd have a piece of string tied around his head/and under neath his nose in such a manner.
