In a show that's gotten renowned for its plot twists, the greatest twist of all would be to play it completely straight. I'm saying this is still the michael we've known :colbert:

That's my guess as well. It's a double bluff.

It'd be pretty funny if the accountant stuck in the box was still using the account math where the consequences of each action taken was subtracted from your points, so even though The Soul Squad was doing good, all their lies and manipulations got everyone negative points. Which, honestly may be the idea now that I think on it. The real experiment isn't to see if humans can improve. It's to show how bad the math is.

Good Janet and Bad Janet were both rebooted many many times, which made them more sentient

The other Janets were not, so why would the manifesto get through to them?

It's Cloud Janetting. They all run on the same Janetware, so Good Janet and Bad Janet are offloading their knowledge on their Janetblings. They get the benefits, without dying all the time.

Or, Good Janet and Bad Janet became so powerful after being reset so often, that they can make other Janet's do whatever they want. Janet is a robot then.

I think I prefer the first one tho.

What a great episode. Chidi's finest writing going from the big, overly complicated thing that drained the will to live from his advisor, to the short one page letter. What a cool symbol of his growth.

I think going through the system is just something that'll need to be done, otherwise they're getting in on what amounts to a weird loophole. I dunno, even if they've clearly earned it I just don't see them getting that pass to the GP.

I mean, the thing is that they already have gone through the system. It's just been an unofficial one.

Spoiler about an unreleased episode's title under the spoiler and possible connections.

So, one of the next episodes name is Patty. Elanor's semi-sister is Patricia.

Huh, I wonder if the score keeper's are using the heavily skewed point value from the original system as their baseline? Making it real easy to get into the good place cause it's not like you can do worse than how you did on earth, according to the accountants.

The Green Door just leads to the Alpha Centauri aliens afterlife, with all brand new experiences for the humans. Michael and the soul squad may or may not have to fix their system as well.
