Newsroom. Dropping bombs over here. Yeah Grace Gummer aka Meryl Streep's daughter is an awesome actress.

How do we read these comments?
Marco St
2022-12-28 11:28:09 +0000 UTC
Yes, and nothing in the original comment implies that, so it's additional information aka spoilers. As well as talking about plots developing with specific characters. I don't get why you brought that up all a sudden when nothing in myeh's comment talks about anything other than this episode

Isaac, I don't understand why it's so underwatched by people aye, it's such a brilliant show. I think people suspect it's literally about robots or something haha.
Absolutely love this show

I respect it cause Mr Robot is criminally underwatched by reactors. I'm trying to pace myself til the later ones π

Rami nails this role beautifully, especially that one episode that cannot be named yet!

?? Alright, just saying the reason for Gideons death doesn't get covered till later in S2 - but whatever

Man you go hard on these comments aye. However, the show is that good so it's understood but damn lad you make a ton of comments on these
Lol yeah, Dustywood I don't know how you're not seeing this but if anyone should delete their comments it's you

Bro I used ROT13 when talking about future episodes for a reason, if anyone's spoiling here it's you. I'm genuinely confused.
I don't recall why Gideon was murdered being a serious plot point, just that it happened, if you can provide ROT13-encoded scenes that prove me wrong, please do
Myeh
2022-12-20 21:40:38 +0000 UTC
Okay, well first of all you're talking about Romero, but I'm talking about Gideon. Gideons death isn't explained till later, so yes you've technically spoiled his death but you're doubling it down by comparing it to Romero - that's nice. Either way, Gideon's death doesn't get explained till a little later in the Series..... At this moment it's not known why he was killed. Like, literally, the man dies at the end of the episode and you come in here and give context to why his death occurred? We're meant to speculate on why he was killed, until the plot covers it later.
Dustywood
2022-12-20 21:35:22 +0000 UTC
What are you talking about? I don't think any of this isn't able to be gleaned from the episode itself.

Love that you guys communicate this way for discussing the storyline, smart way (and relevant) to discussing the episode without spoilers! Damn I really REALLY hope they make it to the end of Season 2 without the major spoilers.
Dustywood
2022-12-20 09:52:33 +0000 UTC
Yup, same if you looked at the audio waves of some episodes it would show random pictures that would give you hints of what's occurring or coming up too. I know the Easter Egg that you're referring to (there's a great video on it), but yup too early to link it at this stage!
Dustywood
2022-12-20 09:50:42 +0000 UTC
Tbh this is a bit of a spoiler, that isn't revealed to later in the series. The death of Gideon causes an underlining plot to develop within specific characters, they don't know why he was killed - so probably it's worth deleting your comment imo...
Dustywood
2022-12-20 09:49:23 +0000 UTC
i watched she-ra because one of my lesbians friends from college recommend it to me because i was bored and had nothing to watch atm. it's not the greatest show ever made but i do like it and you know, best friends to enemies to lovers is a great dynamic ngl.
also, adora is one of the funniest characters ever. i still sometimes see that clip that says something like "we'll if you're smart, you'll run away" and she's like "well i'm not... running away, that is, i am smart" jdjsj lol or that time she's like drugged. hilarious character. sometimes i forget glimmer's voice actresses is kimiko from the boys.

2022-12-20 02:32:40 +0000 UTC
same tbh! i'm queer and if I know a show has positive and/or complex queer characters in relationships it makes me want to watch the show even more. She-Ra (the netflix animated show) is a good example, maybe I would have watched anyway but people seemed so hype about it
Kara
2022-12-20 02:10:57 +0000 UTC
to be fair when your social media has a lot of gay content is not that uncommon. i've watch many shows because i knew there's was a lesbian relationship in it. for example i started person or interest just because i knew about the couple and i honestly almost dropped it because s1 was boring af but i continued it and honestly one of the best decisions of my life. it's one of my favourite shows ever made with sadly a boring first season. many episodes are perfection.
4x11 if-then-else is probably my favourite episode of television, i think even people who haven't watched the show can watch it appreciate it and enjoy it.
anyway, all this to say that it's not uncommon to hear about a ship when you follow many accounts that tweet about gay things. my twitter is the gayest shit lol

when they announced they were gonna do Band of Brothers as a nice short 1 season thing alongside Mr Robot i was like.... uh oh! Take a break from the trauma of Mr Robot with the trauma of real warfare.... oop
Kara
2022-12-20 01:32:34 +0000 UTC
So funny that of all the twists in the show, the only spoiler you saw was a queer ship lmao. Iconic.
Joey Badass is the actor who plays Leon, Elliot's new friend from home. Joey Badass is most known for being a quite popular rapper (hence the name), so was a surprise to see him pop up in Mr Robot.

100% agree with you guys on Rami. It's easily my favorite performance ever.

her twitter is gay jfhkjahfkash same. sometimes i'm suprised when i see something straight in my timeline. well, that's a spoiler i'm not mad to hear about.
but it was hilarious, you were like, i know a spoiler and i'm not going to say anything... literally 30 seconds later.
lola screaming "enemies to lovers" bings me back to arcane when she literally had a whole story planned before cait and vi even had an exchange of words.
gideon dies and they just talk spend the first 5 minutes of the discussion talking aabout the gay stuff lol that's how i know i pay for good content.
i need to watch something light hearted to balance this out. maybe a disney movie or a sitcom episode. i was going to watch a band of brothers episode but yeah, that's not happening now.
sand_fl
2022-12-19 23:54:44 +0000 UTC
wtf? wtf? wtf? wtf?... no really, what the fuck did i just watch? first of all, fuck everyone for killing off all the "good and innocents". really gives you a sense of what's to come i guess.
i really liked gideon and i think he was a wonderful person and didn't deserve what happened to him (i guess having some hope about him being somehow alive it's pointless). i draw my line there, that's all the deaths i can accept for now. they better not touch one hair on darlene's head.
i watched the newsroom ages ago, had no idea she was meryl's daughter, i was actually listening to mamma mia's soundtrack on my way home lol
btw, that scene of elliot laughing may be the creepiest thing i've watched in my life.
anyway, going to watch the discussion now. i was going to make a joke about doug judy being on this episode but now it seems soulless to do it π

Yeah I kinda mentioned it a few hours ago commenting on the episode 1 discussion as well.
So yes to LM, at the time QR codes and ALL IP addresses lead to specific sites that gave some additional backstory as tom said but if you go there now I think you're going to be shown the summation of ALL the clues that were given from this point on until the show ended. So definitely a rewatch item at this point, we don't want you to stumble on something you shouldn't see yet. π

Small last comment, but hey I did an ok job at condensing the previous ones
I really like the shot of the line space in between Elliot's two journal tries. The close-up of the page is already aesthetically pleasing to me because of the handwriting and paper texture but there's something so chilling about the visualization of lost time from when Mr Robot took over

"It feels like we're in a constant state of a dream, but it's reality" S2 in a nutshell and why it was my favorite for so long. The blending of surrealism and realism to create a perpetually unique tone. The soul-crushingly realistic consequences from what happened in the finale combined with the fantastical existentialism that it makes everyone think about.
- The politics scenes are important in establishing the state of the world in the background while our characters try to deal with the situation at hand
- Will let you figure out what Five/Nine refers to, but it's the reason fsociety chose 5.9 million as the amount, rather than the other way around
- Lol you noticed the QR code thing. It's a lot deeper than just linking to a website, and there's tonnes of easter eggs I wanted to allude to in a 2x1 comment but scrapped it. This way it leaves a lot for you to revisit in the future when you do a rewatch. The weekly episode releases and trailer dissections essentially became full on treasure hunts with the amount of hints there was, haha
- Not gonna lie, I feel like your idea of them forcing the money to be given to the public with an fsociety mask is a better idea XD. At least have him wear some sort of Evil Corp costume if you're gonna make him burn it
- And lastly, the serotonin I get when Milena says Mr Robut at the beginning of every reaction XD

feel this gonna be tough, "thankfully" I wasn't very attached to Gideon on my first watch, so his death just came as a kind of a surprise moment, but now realising how good of a person he was it's just much more difficult to accept.
terrier
2022-12-19 20:03:47 +0000 UTC
Yeahhhh Gideon's death is basically the first real example of collateral damage from the hack. Guy took the fall and a radicalized man decided to take "justice" into his own hands. It sucks and shows how the show is committed to a pretty...banal look at the world. Sometimes people just die
