Anybody else watching this on Apple TV+? 4 episodes released so far and I’m enjoying it.

On 2, I agree and disagree. On the pineapple thing, I took that as more of a sign that Cobel was saying that Mark wasn't important and everything they do is extremely calculated. The gift wasn't a true apology or anything like that, it was a standard calculated decision by the company.
On the other hand, I think there is definitely control going on but in a different way. Watching Dylan G in this episode, I think they are grooming his innie to take over his outie completely. I think his wife is annoyed with his outie as being lazy and unhelpful, but his innie is motivated and "better". That's why she lies as to how it went. And once they offer his innie this opportunity, then Lumen controls him forever because they can always "kill" his innie at any time. Dylan G will become a company man for life. It wouldn't surprise me if several other characters like Cobel and Milchek have already had this happen.

Yeah I’m convinced milkshake and cobel are permanent innies who took over their outies lives after ascending. Also they could’ve died and been brought back to life like Gemma through brain surgery chip implant. That’s why milkshakes motorcycle is so important because he died riding it and the breathing tube for cobel was probably hers and she died in a hospital wearing the breathing tube. I think the mdr people are feeding human emotion to AI to implant into the dead people. And they can’t leave town for some reason as cobel turned around I’m thinking it has to do with the chip turning off but not sure.

Yeah, I'm with you guys on that thought.

It was indeed a great episode.

Spoiler!

I'm glad they settled the Helly/Helena question. I didn't want that dragging on throughout the season.

Did anyone else get the feeling that the Appendix IV was written by Ricken? The prose sounded a whole lot like his and we saw Lumon wanting to hire his services.

Man there's a lot to unpack in this episode.

Spoiler!

But I'll just start with, what happened between the last episode and this one? Did the reintegration work? Why would Mark's outie let him go on a two day work trip if he's trying to unsever? Or, did it not work? You saw the little flash of Gemma during his sesh with Helly. Maybe it's a progressive thing. BTW: Outie Helena getting it on with a Lumen employee = voodoo! She showed flashes of being normal in that tent too.

I loved and hated that episode

Spoiler!

I was really looking forward to marks reintegration. Glad they finally admitted Nelly was an outie and how weird for mark. Irv being gone will be a bummer unless his outie continues on in the show. Like others have said I think Ricken is Rick. Wonder how hellys innie is gonna react now.

This is the best series "on TV" right now. By a ****ing mile.

That was a fun episode. The whole show is so quirky.

Irv brings the passion! Plus deductive smarts.
