I’m supposed to be at work for another 30 mins… guess it’s time to leave lmao. I’m not ready and I’ve seen this episode like 10 times

JATLA

This episode made me think this is the best show I’ve ever watched. I’ve been waiting for this reaction from yous ever since I saw the episode myself😅 Masterpiece

Farbod

my favorite episode. Vera was absolutely amazing.

407: Proxy Authentication Required Like Lola mentioned, when Krista first asked Elliot about this event, he could not remember(he was even in the same pose during that Season 3 episode). It took Vera's intervention to authorize access to this horrible event...

From a comment that I once read. These 5 Acts correspond with the stages of grief: Stage 1: Denial - Elliot is in denial about the whole situation Stage 2: Anger - Mr. Robot goes in on Vera Stage 3: Bargaining - Elliot bargains for Krista's life Stage 4: Depression - The whole twist Stage 5: Acceptance - Vera helped him accept what happened

This was an all-time great reaction. As hard as it was for you to watch, it was so enjoyable and cathartic to rewatch along. Despite essentially knowing it was coming, this reveal still confirms and reframes the whole show. Every scene with Edward (Elliot's Dad) in a flashback, that was an abuser. Every scene with Mr Robot, that was the personality created to protect Elliot from that abuse, while looking exactly like the abuser. A lot of scenes feel very different knowing this is 100% true. There are so many fantastic moments this ep but I'll highlight the Vera/Mr Robot scene. I've watched it a ton on YouTube and you can see the subtle choices that Mr Robot makes while being his sarcastic, rebellious anticapitalist self. It's peak "Mr Robot" as an idea and his rhetoric almost works. And then under everything you see that Mr Robot is trying to protect Elliot (and by extension Krista) here. It's a lot of bluster and aggression and irony and rebellion. It's the exact sort of personality your mind might create to protect you from hard truths. It's the guy you want in your corner, afraid of nothing, willing to do anything - no fear, no shame, no grace. This is what Mr Robot has always been from Ep 1. All the acting is unbelievably good but I'll shoutout Gloria Rueben again because she plays a perfect supporting role here, it's pure, it's empathetic, it's terrified but resilient. Elliot and Vera and Mr Robot get the spotlight but Krista is there to facilitate and make everything believable even when the show is at its most theatrical. I cry every time when she asks that penultimate question. What a good show! And it's not over yet!

I knew this episode was gonna be tough but honestly really good reaction and analysis. Not a whole lot of people realized or theorized what you did about it— it was honestly much more of a shock to them, myself included. It always impressed me how quickly you caught the red flags. Honestly just incredibly brutal stuff. But props to all four major performers in this episode, they all performed masterfully and Elliot Villar needs to be in more things

incredible episode and reaction, I didnt see it coming, but I didnt go on reddit for the final season really, so I didnt see any theories.

Brad Johnson

This episode is one heck of an experience

The 2nd highest rated episode of television on IMDB (Ozymandias being 1st).

Kevin McDonough

Sam did such a beautiful job eliciting our emotions alongside Elliot. The nagging feeling persisting through the seasons that *something* is off with Mr. Robot/Elliot's dad (but what?!). Building to this episiode, where the filmography tells us the moment is coming, eliciting a deep dread. When the moment arrives, we feel the hints but push them away because the reality is too much. Finally, after the overwhelming emotions, we are guided through the stages of grief alongside Elliot as he grasps his new reality.

As somebody who didn't see the twist coming...like at all, this episode was the biggest "wtf" moment of my life. I felt violated. I also remember thinking that, to me, this is what Rami really won the Oscar for. That performance was so raw I felt it was a disservice to call it a "performance", he went somewhere real for that.

Dustywood

Especially knowing that Rami did that entire reveal scene in one take, no interruptions, just raw filming, then the aftermath and having him exposed with raw emotions whilst not breaking character or having a scene cut - I can't imagine how he must of felt during the filming of that one take scene. The amount of energy he must of poured into that scene, it would have been difficult to recreate it if he accidentally missed a line or made a mistake - one of the best performances I've ever seen in my life.

Yeah, this episode is one of a kind. It is so harrowing it hurts. The structure is so simple, yet extremely powerful. The only other episode that affected me this much is the final one of the show.

Fun Fact: When they were doing the table read for this episode only the actors in this episode were present, everyone else was told to leave.

I was going to leave this comment on the video comments section only, but then thought if it helps someone here reading it, for catharsis, then I'll paste it here: I'm a survivor of this shit too. I too had "that talk" through therapy that helped me realise what I'd been through. I was molested. Even just to type those 3 words has taken a lot out of me. Most of the time when I watch material pertaining to this subject matter, including in this show, I'm able to emotionally distance myself. This took me off guard, got under my skin. I was saying "no no no" hoping that it wasn't going to be the revelation it was going to be. I am fucking heartbroken over this episode. It's taking me several minutes to collect myself between sentences just to try and write this out, but I need people to know that if you're lucky enough to have not gone through this, don't ever take it for granted. I wouldn't wish this on anyone, not even those who perpetrate the crime. Anyone else who's been through this, I got your back. I don't know what else to say. I wish I could make a more eloquent point. It's just so fucking painful.

♥️ you guys. I had to take week break after this episode cus it was too much and I never do that. So phenomenally done I’ll never forget watching this live for the first time

Dustywood

Not sure if someone else already pointed out or if you corrected yourself in the post review, but Krista has every right to defend herself in her own home, she is safe to go to the police over something like this - there's no need to "hide the body". I'm not a US citizen, but I do understand that American's have the right to defend their property and make a stand against a violent intruder. I could be wrong if an American wants to correct me, but this is my understanding of US law. Unlike my country, where if you have a home invader, and if you injure that home invader, you can go to jail / you can be the one facing fines or penalties. If you kill a home invader in New Zealand, you'll go to jail for 10-15 years.

They actually shot this episode like a stage play. Each act was shot in a single run with multiple cameras running at the same time filming the performance on the soundstage

tom

That's wild. But also, is the relevant thing here really the home invading part? I feel like the "kidnapping you, holding you hostage and holding a gun to your head" is a lot more important here and seems to be unquestionably self defense. But I dont know anything about the law so maybe I'm wrong?

2023-03-31 00:31:09 Vera's philosophy at its core seems to be "Use your trauma and past as fuel to do whatever you want, morals be damned". It's something he says as early as his first episode, where he talks about self-hate being true power. And now here, where he talks about his own past with sexual abuse and trauma, but ultimately he's also a rapist, a murderer, and an idiot thug who happens to be extremely manipulative and well-spoken. Elliot on the other hand has mostly turned his trauma outwards, seeking to "save the world" and take down the assholes who hurt others, whether they be a global conspiracy of cultists or a child porn dealer. It's fascinating to see how both of them are rooted in the same type of abuse but turned out completely differently. Vera wanted to make Elliot "the storm", aka exactly like the people who hurt Elliot. But it's ultimately Krista, the kind woman who helped Elliot for so long, who snaps him out of it
