I saw a text post that sums things up pretty nicely: we thought it was fight club but it was actually star wars the whole loving time.

Tyrell probably knows about some of the crazy poo poo that Vader did to put Eliot in this condition

I still can't get over the fact that was BD Wong. Dude has been in so much diverse poo poo.

Holy poo poo I called it! I loving called it. What, like over a month ago?qbert posted:You know how they're going to reveal it. Someone's going to be talking to Elliot and be like, "Hey, I found this old picture. It's your dad, right?"

It puts the whole fsociety mission in a different light. Not that we should've trusted Slater's description of it to begin with, but still.

I thought that scene made more sense if it was Elliot's Mr Robot speaking to Tyrell. Them being allies, the secret being his framing of Colby for "revenge". The sequence afterwards with Tyrell talking to his wife about Elliott seemed to enforce that... But who the gently caress knows anymore

this also explains angela's last conversation with Eliot. She expected them to grow apart because he wouldn't remember anything ![]()

I thought it was weird when you see Darlene and Angela chatting at ballet class. I kept on thinking, "Wait, did they meet? I think they did? Or was it Shayla? Or maybe both?" But no, they're just childhood friends. ![]() ![]() PunkBoy fucked around with this message at 06:28 on Aug 13, 2015 |

You're gonna trust Eliot's amnesiac, autistic eyes on this one?

Shocking revelation subversions aside, there was other rad stuff in the episode. Notice Wellick's machiavellian wife being confirmed as Lady Macbeth. She really went after that one stain during their first conversation at home!

muscles like this? posted:I'm kind of leaning toward the second as he is noticeably older than in the pictures, which would be an odd detail for a crazy person to come up with. He only looked a lot younger in a few of the pictures where he's by himself. He looks about the same to me in the pictures with child Elliot. Down to the same glasses and jacket. I assumed the pictures were just his dad when he was younger. I'm still going with Ghost Dad here. It just makes a lot more sense. The interactions with Darlene and Tyrell just don't quite add up if he's alive. All signs point to delusion imo.

I know it's a contrivance to keep the plot on point for the viewer but... ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... Elliot left the room when this happened.![]() That said, I was actually getting a little bored with certain parts of this episode but Bateman and that end really perked me up. I wish this season wasn't allowed to end in 2 episodes.

Ghost Dad. Sister incest. Inner monologue. Awfully similar to Dexter.

I can't wait for the season to end so I can rewatch it.

I went back and checked some scenes from Ep 2, and every Elliot/Darlene interaction makes perfect sense in the context of them being siblings. Awesome.

qbert posted:I went back and checked some scenes from Ep 2, and every Elliot/Darlene interaction makes perfect sense in the context of them being siblings. Yeah it's a sign of a pretty good twist/reveal that my immediate reaction was that I really want to rewatch the earlier episodes now. I'll wait until the season is over, but it just immediately paints so many scenes/interactions/conversations in a different light now.

That was a placenta-poppin episode, loved it.

My money is on his mom died and not his dad and maybe the reason we're hearing everyone talk about his dad is because we're hearing everything through Eliot's point of view. Pretty sure we've heard EvilCorp when he wasn't around too. Also I really like the 50/50 head dad, real dad theory.

I wonder if they do anything with Rami Malek having a twin brother

Do you think perhaps that Elliot received some kind of brain damage as a child, courtesy of Evil Corp?
