    Reminder to check your DVR's to make sure it's set to record tonight. My DirecTV DVR thinks tonight's episode is a rerun since it was supposed to have aired last week so it wasn't set to record. Also make sure it's set to record from at least 10PM-11:15PM. I added 15 minutes to be sure because of the credits thing.

    It's been posted a ton ITT, but I still forgot about the end credits scene until your post. I would have been livid at myself, so thanks.

    My fear boner for Lady Tyrell is real.

    On a similar note, I can definitely see why they didn't want to air that last week.

    Yep.

    I figured we hadn't seen the last of that character because BD Wong was playing him.

    Anyone have a guess on Tyrell? He's definitely alive, IMO. Way too much left unresolved with his character.

    Tyrell absolutely alive. Where the hell is he though? And his wife is fucking crazy.

    And am i high or was her face changing/morphing when she was talking to Elliot?

    I have no idea where Tyrell is, but I think someone from the larger hacking group was knocking on Elliot's door. They're one step ahead of evil corp and their going to protect Elliot. :twocents:

    Question...at the end when CS showed up with young elliot and his mom, why was young darlene not there? She was in the family picture, right? Is Elliots mom dead? Did they ever touch on that?

    I thought his mother looked like she was pregnant, presumably with Darlene. I am pretty sure she is dead, but I can't remember if they've gotten into details.

    Damn. Then that means Darlene has to be atleast 10 years younger than Elliot, no? Young Elliot looked atleast 9-10 yrs old there.. Doesnt seem right.

    Shit.

    That entire Lady Tyrell scene was so unsettling. I can't wait to see how she fits in season 2.
    BD Wong and the dude from Rubicon playing a cat and mouse game as part of some crazy rich guy cabal and Elliot in the middle? So confused but truly excellent tv.

    Lady Tyrell's eyes are magical. That whole scene was so unsettling. I wonder if there was any CGI involved or if that was all just natural.

    For those interested in what Tyrell's wife said to Elliot that wasn't English or subtitled, from reddit...

    In Danish: "Hvis du har gjort ham noget, så slår jeg dig ihjel."

    "If you have done something to him (implying harm), I will kill you."

    I thought the same thing about the face changing. There were also several times where Eliot's face seemed jumpy/glitchy. On the subway is one particular example. Anyone else notice this?

    Interesting that the data is just encrypted and not destroyed. White Rose seems to be in a pretty good spot here. He can buy up e corp stock and then recover the data and profit massively.

    Happy that someone else thought her face looked different. I kept trying to figure out wtf was happening.

    I liked, didn't love the finale. Interested in the bigger game that's being played by some of these peripheral characters though. Looking forward to rewatching it this offseason + season 2 next summer.

    So there's a thread on reddit where someone sent an e-mail to the account that posted the video of Elliot being "pushed" off the pier and got a reply back. https://www.reddit.com/r/MrRobot/comments/3jhwsm/if_you_email_sk8r904gmailcom_you_get_some_sort_of/

    For those who don't reddit here's the gist of it...


    If you send an e-mail to the account that posted the video on Vimeo you get a reply back from "Mr. Nash" (possibly referring to John Nash - Nobel Prize-winning mathematician with similar mental illness what we've seen from Elliot) with the subject being "Fitter, Happier."

    This is the body of the e-mail...

    The key to decrypt that is "OK Computer", the name of the Radiohead album which contains the song "Fitter, Happier."

    Once decrypted you get...

    "Yossarian was cold, too, and shivering uncontrollably. He felt goose pimples clacking all over him as he gazed down despondently at the grim secret Snowden had spilled all over the messy floor. It was easy to read the message in his entrails. Man was matter, that was Snowden’s secret. Drop him out a window and he’ll fall. Set fire to him and he’ll burn. Bury him and he’ll rot, like other kinds of garbage. That was Snowden’s secret. Ripeness was all."

    An excerpt from Catch-22.

    Should be a fun 10 months or so of overanalyzing the shit out of this show.

    I take it to mean that she views Tyrell as a valuable tool necessary to gain whatever she is after.

    Great stuff. I will rewatch at some point but will plan to watch S2 when it comes out next Summer

    Sam Esmail Will Direct Every Episode of ‘Mr. Robot’ Season Two

    USA’s Mr. Robot is one of the year’s most pleasant surprises. While some called the drama derivative, it went on to find its own identity. The show came close to greatness, and it left the door open for more drama and higher stakes. The big brains behind the operation, show creator Sam Esmail, may direct every episode of the sophomore season.

    Learn more about Mr. Robot season two after the jump.


    Variety reports Esmail plans on directing every episode of the next chapter, following in the footsteps of Cary Fukunaga(True Detective season one) and Steven Soderbergh (The Knick). If USA gives Esmail the go-ahead, then they’ll be expressing a huge sign of confidence in the writer-director — which he’s earned after delivering a critically acclaimed and successful first season. The showrunner did a fine job on the three episodes he directed, and he’s also proven himself as a capable feature film director, with his little-seen gem Comet (watch it on Netflix Instant now).

    We already know a little bit about the next season of Mr. Robot. A few months ago Peter compiled a list of quotes from the New York Comic Con panel, detailing what’s in store for season two.


    Here’s what fans can expect to see next summer:

    • “Esmail promises that the second season will ‘get really fucking dark,’ which is a crazy claim considering how dark the first season already was. Elliot actor Rami Malek said that Esmail has already warned him that tackling the second season is ‘gonna be tough,’ something that he never said when making the first season. We can only speculate what “really fucking dark” means at this point, but I’m guessing it will be crazy.”
    • “Christian Slater will return for season 2 reprising his role as Mr. Robot aka Edward Alderson. Yes, season one saw the character revealed as Elliot’s long dead father, now a figment of his son’s troubled mind, but it looks like Mr. Robot will return somehow. This could either be accomplished through flashbacks or Elliott might still be seeing his alter ego show up regardless of now being aware that he is not real.”
    • “We should learn more about Elliot’s relationship with his sister and follow fsociety member Darlene, and how that relationship fits in with the origins of the now infamous hacker group society.”
    • “We should learn what happened to Elliot during the three days when the hack was being executed, which should answer some questions we have. Series creator Sam Esmail has said that there is a different world that Elliot enters when the season starts and that it was this canvas that he really wanted to explore. He really wanted to explore the idea of what would happen if Elliot was able to set the world in chaos.”
    Best of all? We’ll see more of Tyrell Wellick’s (Martin Wallstrom) wife, Joanna (Stephanie Corneliussen), in season two. The Lady Macbeth-type is an unforgettable presence in season one, but she remains a mystery. Esmail promises we’ll “see her rise.”

    Mr. Robot season two should debut next summer.
