Elliot's world (and hacking) is corresponding to Slater's world, him taking down EvilCorp will do something electronic in the real world. (Like take down Walmart.)

precision posted:actually I think Krysta is the one who's had her memories wiped or messed with She says at some point that she was only willing if Elliot talked to her more and stopped lying. That sounds like something a mental health professional with a fair amount of dedication and care for her patients might do. Sets boundaries, opens Elliot up out of guilt, and keeps him from going untreated.

precision posted:Back in season 1, Tyrell's wife said some things about "being part of this family" that I thought could have been interpreted as her being from NWO Royalty and him being just a "regular guy", but as I said I think that was a dropped plot line. This is peak TVIV not getting obvious poo poo. She means her and the baby and him, not the new world order or whatever. (Tbh I've come up with worse)

hope and vaseline posted:Mmmm. Thinking of Elliott in those Darlene cutoffs. Post/Username Combo is delicious. Anyway. I've been re-watching the series as well, and I don't think Real Elliot's Dad was abusive, but him mom sure as poo poo was. The way she talks to him in the post-funeral scene is really loving brutal, and I think from the way the camera moves we're meant to think she left him there. Not to mention the one flashback/real-life mesh when he deals with Bill where she's basically screaming at him for having emotions. Also, Bill is one of the people Elliot thinks of while in prison. I hope he gets to make amends at some point.

But what about the  internet police?! Anyway, since I haven't said so yet, drat good episode. Felt like season one to me, which I think was somewhat better than s2, but not massively so.

Fried Watermelon posted:The best part of the episode was the amount of contempt and disdain in Price's voice when he talks about BITCOIN Price posts on Something Awful, Elliot is on Reddit, Darlene writes long posts on Tumblr, Mobly edits Wikipedia. Turns out the entire show... is the web. Think about it, maaaan.

Angela is gonna have to "Dark Army fuckup" herself with the gun in that bag, isn't she? Great episode, very nice. Would've liked more Mr. Robot in this show called Mr. Robot.

I don't get while the show thinks Angela doesn't know her way around a computer. Like, she's probably not wunderkind supernerd Elliot level, but she worked at a computer security company for a long while. Even if she became management quickly there's still some technical knowhow to do that job.

Here's an idea I came up with stoned: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Roko%27s_basilisk There's this "thought experiment" that goes that, in the far future, a highly developed AI creates the technology to simulate long-dead humans using remaining historical data and But what if that's what Whiterose is selling? "Help me build a computer that can recreate anyone from memory or mementos, like a souped up version of the sexbot in Black Mirror." It fits thematically with S1 showing how much of our daily lives are recording online, but can also be subverted by the positive bias in most people's social media profiles. And if it can recreate people, it can also duplicate them forever, no matter the time since they were duplicated. (And, hence, help Whiterose get around her mortality.) e: Poppyseed Poundcake posted:I guess they decided to end the plotline where white rose is a lady. The last few episodes she’s looked pretty manly. I'm 99% sure that Whiterose is supposed to be a trans women, a type of person not very welcome in the Chinese government. Just because she hasn't been alone or with accepting people, and hence is in "guy mode" as trans women call it, doesn't mean she isn't daydreaming about dresses and pickles.

What if Mr. Robot is what Elliot really looks like, he only sees himself as a pasty nerd. He's actually 40 and rougishly good looking.

DaveKap posted:By the way, do you think people had Trump signs on their front lawn in September of 2015? As a former Arizonian: yes. Anyway, I'm going to miss Trenton even if her part was pretty much pointless after S1. I wish she and Darlene (aka elliot aka angela aka flipper) could've gayed up the show together. Also, we have pretty strong proof now that Minister Zhang IS Whiterose, since we cut to her while she's owning Price. It's almost as though a character being a trans woman is more likely that timewarp multiverse fictive headmate theory!!

How is this a mixed feeling episode? The kid is totally another manifestation that'll crush Elliot when he realizes it was a way for him/Mr. Robot to avoid suicide. (The lesbian shoe scene + some of the self consciousness around gay manifesting in the lobby thanks to stereotype drug dealer.) He might've talked to Angela, but she's still seriously hosed up after doing something drat near unforgivable. And our once cleaned up hero has a big bag of morphine to get re addicted with. This is all just salt on the wound, made for worrying be Elliot going back to bad blackmail hacking habits. ETA: STOP BEING OPTIMISTIC YOU FUCKS

Can I just say that I love this show's inclusion of queer characters? We've got two live lesbians, one dead gay dude (whose death was entirely unrelated to being queer) the quasi-antagonist is a trans woman of color, and none of this is played up for diversity bingo points in the show. Heck, Darlene's new pal is a trans sex worker, and she was introduced with dignity and pointed out some of Darlene's bullshit. I'm not generally a watcher of network television, is this level of inclusion common nowadays?

nickmeister posted:He said a lot of the weird philosopher stuff after he got thrown in prison by eliot. About how they their destinies were intertwined and they were destined to meet again or something. He's probably back with another scheme that he wants to use eliots hacker skills for. I'm imaging some big fake out where all he wants is for Elliot to set up his wifi. Not like super hacker wifi, a linksys box with "BRAVETRAVELS6969420" as the SSID.
