Yeah my bet's on human/organ trafficking. It could be just online gambling, but that really feels like a step down for Mr Robot.

It's probably going to be something horrible but I don't think that it will end up being the main conflict for this season. I don't think it necessarily fits into the larger stories.

Anyone else getting the feeling that Angela is going to get "Gideoned" at some point?

No. I feel like she's going to assassinate someone important though. Too many WW1 references in Price's office.

I think Ray's online business will end up being contract killers - and it will turn out his site was used (possibly by Darlene) to hire the guy who killed Gideon.

You are not a very good contract killer if you shoot someone in the head at a crowded bar. I wrote Gideon off as a poor guy who got financially ruined since AllSafe took the blame for the ECorp hack.

I watched the second episode in pieces. Did Elliot and Ray play chess before he plays himself, and is it shown?

Yeah. Ray tells him that he's really terrible at chess and that they shouldn't even play each other anymore because he'll just win everytime

It will go well with the whole "he is on dialysis" angle, yeah. Still, the leader of an organ traffic ring, unable to get a new kidney is kinda weird.

Could be he's unable to get a replacement for various reasons, like a rare blood type.

If the illegal site was invite only, why were the human slave pictures even censored?

You know that's one of those things I'm not terribly desperate to pursue as subject. Now the silly TV/movie style silenced pistol in the faux-home invasion on the other hand...

Edit: For something less glib, there's a pretty interesting symmetry between WhiteRose and Darlene. They're both leading hacking groups with relatively serious agendas (although seemingly utterly opposed to each in terms of ideology) while both being constrained by playing an expected role (strong security minister, strong revolutionary leader) while desperately wanting something else. I suppose you can extend that out to Angela as well although she seems a lot more amateurish in her attempts with the affirmations and everything else about her new position in life. They're also doing a drat good job with holding out on Tyrell, dude needs to show up and explain what the gently caress happened already.

Could be one of those "the characters are seeing it uncensored but we're blurring it out for the TV show viewers," kind of like how f-bombs are bleeped and whatnot.
