Another great episode, a little bit weird but good.

Quite a bit confusing but very good. Hope the fish makes a return. The sticking the disc in part is a bit stupid though.

If this ended with the second episode it could have been a good show

I thought the second episode is the only episode so far that was noticeably not as good.

I have been wondering since the beginning if its possible some of the characters aren't real.

That was one trippy as strawberry float episode. I'm absolutely convinced Mr Robot doesn't exist now. It's just too obvious the way Christian Slater never interacts with anyone else except Elliot. The only time he did was when they were going into that drug house and then it turned out to be a dream anyway.

Like you say it seems almost too obvious, that last episode made me wonder if some of the other characters don't exist as well though.

Yeah, there must be some kind of double twist coming. They're being too obvious with it for a show with otherwise smart writing.

I originally thought the dream was the bit after Elliot passed out after shooting up but having just read your post I've realised it was probably him fantasizing about getting a fix and his paranoia about using a dealer he doesn't know causing him to dream the whole sequence of 'bad' events.

The whole thing has a Fight Club/ A Scanner Darkly feel to it.

strawberry floating great episode this week. The after-dinner scene with THAT line from Tyrell was incredible. :lol: He's such a fascinating character. I loved Angela's father as well. Just came right out and said what every viewer had been thinking about her boyfriend. :lol: What a boss.

Interesting to note that there were 4 cups on the table at the beginning. Mr. Robot may be real after all? :o He even interacted with the others later in the episode HOWEVER Elliot was conveniently out of the shot the entire time so it could still just be a persona of his. I don't know what to believe any more.

Love this show.

Wowsers, corker of an episode. Poor Shayla, I'm gonna miss her. Tyrell story was good as well.

Bloody hell, that episode was a bit grim.

Didn't like the muted swearing, kind of ruins the shows grittiness.

Still can't figure out what language Tyrell talks to his wife in, sounds vaguely French but I don't think it is.

He speaks Swedish, his wife speaks Danish.

strawberry float! What an episode. Didn't see that ending coming. Goddamn son of a bitch! :evil:

I love the reveal that Tyrrell's wife is the driving force behind what he's up to. Love what they're doing with that character. The framing of the camera in that boardroom scene was great. Really showed how out of his depth he is.

More proof that Mr. Robot isn't real in that ep too. How'd he get onto the stairs past the buzzer at the entrance?

Goddamn, another sterling episode again this week. The rooftop and final scenes being the clear highlights. The use of music during the rooftop scene was brilliantly done. Loved the opening flashback, too :wub:

Looks like I'm back on team real with regard to Mr. Robot. He was talking to actual people this week. strawberry floaters keep messing up the theories. I can't wait to find out what's really going on.

Yep, another quality episode especially the end. I'm not sure about the rooftop scene, he seems like an obvious suspect and still might have left some DNA.

I think he just strawberry floated up and he knows it. His wife is the one calling the shots anyway.

Oh fuuuuuuuuuuck. :shock: Massive MASSIVE episode tonight. It was one twist after another. My jaw was on the floor for the last 5 minutes. I've never been happier to be totally wrong. They strawberry floating got me good. That episode just floored me. Loved all the 4th wall breaking too. And of course Tyrrell's decent into madness. His wife truly is a psychopath.

This strawberry floating show.

I still think Mr. Robot/Elliott's dad is not actually there. None of the photos showed Elliot as more than a teenager so he must have died when he was young.

Just incredible, possibly the best kept plot twist ever.

This show is just so damn good.
