Love the way the sponsor plugs are slipped in there
I don't yet understand enough of the technocracy/trennan conflict (I mean, beyond what Nolira did and her becoming the scapegoat for it) so I don't know how to feel about the torture scene while she slept (was it a dream? something in the past? future?) so I'll have to give season one a rewatch or wait for more development here... But ALI being awake and active this whole time is terrifying. It's been editing the audiovisual feed from her room to cover her talking to herself. It wants her safe and healthy? I seriously do not buy that. Damn thing is evil or broken based on its actions in season one. And let's talk about her talking to herself. How many voices are in her head? There's the lady whose transmission she heard and found dead, right? Po? But who else is in there? Is that just her self-talk or does this sound like something else? Also she has had ZiZi play two different videorecorder movies or memories (has it been clear which? I need to relisten) and swears up and down they've been edited. Between the voices in her head and the memory stuff, there's plenty there to argue she's not in her right mind. Maybe she's been so traumatized that she has a flimsy grasp on reality and memory. That seems like an unlikely direction to take this show, though. It is plausible but leaves the Bifrost incident up for debate and usually a written story of this caliber shows us all the details because the details matter in some way. I wouldn't be surprised if it is more along the lines of Nolira has stumbled upon something bigger than herself. I'm willing to bet the Bifrost incident wasn't just a random accident. I think something happened. And I wouldn't be surprised if ALI is tied in or responsible in some way. I can't wait to learn more. There are so many things going on at so many different scales, from the personal to the cosmic. I really love this show. It's got future tech Scifi, it's got horror elements (what about space ISN'T horrifying?) and the characters are interesting and realistic. love it love it love it. (Poor Nolira though. She's so mean to herself inside her own head. I'm also guilty of that bad habit. Thing is, anyone beating themselves up isn't helping anybody with that. wompwomp.)
Wow! This is great, you are picking up on so much in the story, a lot of the tiny details which is just what we love. We won't really answer your questions here, because we know that learning from the story itself is way more fun. We hope that you are caught up and that some of your questions have been answered! And that you have new ones.... :D
I'm so excited that Ally is back! ❤️❤️❤️
Also, you know Ally as a name isn’t too far off from Hal. Just saying... 👀
I am so confused - and it’s wonderful!! What the heck is going on??? 😁. Is it time for the next episode yet?!?
