Helly said "I am not a person??" you say bet!

I think it’s so interesting and “bad ass” that helly chose to do it in the elevator so when it gets to the top, the outie helly would wake up to herself being hung. It’s so fucked but it’s essentially innie helly telling outie helly, fuck you. Innie could have done that anywhere but chose the elevator

I've been here long enough to know that the blindness is not homophobia. But I do think it's the fact that it's a budding romance between *two older men*. It's not something we are used to seeing in media, so for some, a highly unusual dynamic like this can fail to register for what it is. If Burt and Irv were younger (say two guys in their 30s or younger), the nature their interaction would be immediately obvious. Same if they were man and woman, even elderly.

Hellys attempt makes sense. Shes a slave down there against her will. Forced to work her whole life.

Julien

It's fascinating that the obvious romance between Irv and Burt isn't registering with out reactors - they are literally not understanding what they are seeing.

It's so crazy how the innies are practically like children. That those 'consciousnesses' were just 'born'. It's like having your mind wiped. Or like having amnesia then starting a whole new existence. They also don't know much about normal things so may get excited about little stuff like art, first loves, waffle parties, books, etc lmao. So naturally, they act weird af.😂 Cause they're practically raising these innies in a cult - 'Kier'. 💀 They're really nailing the eery vibe.

Irv said he's been there 3 years at the ball game, so far less than that!

James Woodford

Yeah agreed. Also I suspect Cobel stole that candle and put it in the session as sort of a test of the severance chip to see if anything is slipping through from the outside by providing a familiar scent. Maybe him going to the funeral and looking shook up and suspicions of Petey having reintegrated have her questioning whether memories are leaking out/in.

You mean Dylan? lol

Devin

“Guy” LOL

I’m loving watching you guys experience this amazing show! Can’t wait for more episodes!

Sarah Stapleton

Poor Helly, how hopeless she must feel! Also love that she tried in the elevator so that her outie would be the one to experience death

Lyn Hurst

Also some really sick jokes subtly woven within the cringe dialog and situations.

Another thing I noticed on FOURTH watch… how creepy it was that they spliced in a scene of Mark saying “hang in there” while we saw Helly going to hang herself. this show is so well written and directed it’s unbelievable.

The lyrics of Enter Sandman were timed perfectly with Selvig/Cobel extracting the chip from Petey’s head. Something about “the monster in your head”… I hadn’t picked up on that before. Early Pudgey said “this is not child care”… but if you think about it, it is. Even though they can walk, have their motor functions, can fully speak…. The innies have only been “alive” for a small part of time. How long since Helly woke up on the table until now? One week? Two weeks? If the latter and she is working 9-5 then Helly R has clocked in 80 hours of living. And maybe innie Irv, who seems to have been there for a while (as he has the Lumon “Bible” seemingly memorized chapter and verse) is like a 6 year old, maybe? This is also made evident from the passages in Ricken’s book. It’s inane bullshit. A few good lines in there, but things like “the letter I stands for the eyes” etc, Ricken is a terrible writer, totally nuts, but when Mark and Dylan are reading the book they think it’s really amazing stuff 😂😂😂

I have to agree with Spartan on his theory on Mark sculpting the tree especially when Petey told Mark that he feels the pain down there too and he just doesn’t know what it means.

lemmy

Spartan and Pudgey Lack of Gaydar confirmed hot damn :P was text book office crush since their first scene together :D stolen glances, looking for excuses to talk and visit each other, then the hand touch. Whether there's more to it than presented or not is another matter but yeah was meant to be clear there were romantic feelings there I think :D.

Lyn Hurst

Agree with Drip Drop, although I think it is Le Bangre. Good pick up Spartan on the tree. I saw that for the second time tonight and realized it right away that was the tree that Gemma hit in Mark's mind. Right here his innie made a connection with his outies memories even though he does not know that. Ms. Cobel is trying to find what failed with Petey's chip since reintegration isn't supposed to be possible. Same premise as the Titanic wasn't supposed to sink.

Great reaction as always. Loving both of your theories. Plus, it’s been a while since we’ve gotten as off the rails in the discussion as you did with the candle, so ending with a good laugh! 🤣 Thanks so much for watching this show.
