Episode starts with Elliot coming home to his
apartment building. He sees someone is moving into the other apartment.
He goes into his place and cuts up some morphine. He hears a girl
cursing then she beats on his door and says she’s bleeding and saw him
so she knows he’s there. He opens and finds a girl who asks for a glass
of water. She has a betta fish that needed water and says her six year
old niece gave it to her. She looks at his place and says he has a nice
set up then sits down. She asks if he can help her move a dresser. Looks
like it’s a flashback to when Shayla first moved in across the hall.
He says he would buy morphine from her
if she can also get suboxone. She says her supplier doesn’t have subox.
She talks about music and he says he hates concerts because of all the
people. He says he doesn’t like most people. Shayla says if he liked one
person it might be an aberration. He says he guesses so and she says
challenge accepted. He says he wishes they already knew each other so
this would be less awkward. She asks if it feels that way, he says yeah,
she says she wishes that too.
She says she’s late and goes to leave
but introduces herself as Shayla before she takes off. She says she
knows of a guy who sells suboxone but he’s supposed to be a psychopath.
She offers to call the guy and tells him to keep the fish. It’s a month
after her death now and Elliotis at therapy. He looks at a cord plugged
into an outlet as the therapist talks. He says he doesn’t like the idea
of Shayla being a blip in his life who has gone and that she died
because of him.
His therapist Krista has given him forms
to sign to be released from his court ordered therapy. She says she
worries and wants him to keep coming and says she thinks he could do
this right. He thinks about how much time he has spent not listening to
her. He signs the forms. On the way out, he says she should clean her
sockets. Angela is with the lawyer Antara and is trying to get a meeting
with Colby, her and Angela and says Angela has evidence that can help
him.
The other lawyer, Seth, wants to know
what she has and Antara tells Seth she knows him and has worked with her
for 20 years and says she has the only glimmer of hope Colby has.
Elliot comes to see his boss and says he appreciates his commitment to
the job but says he thinks Elliot needs time off but he insists he’s
good and then he tells Elliot that he’s sorry Shayla was taken away and
says not to let her death close him off entirely and says to find
someone he can be his honest self with.
Elliot talks about how he got into web
design and would rip off sites he liked. He talks about hacking the
code. He says what if we had view source for people then we see people
around Allsafe with signs on them like I’m empty inside, I
steal. He thinks he honesty thing is BS but tells his boss it’s good
advice and thanks him. Mr Robot reads from a newspaper about how
fSociety doesn’t have the resources to mount an attack. He tells Darlene
she has to get the Dark Army back.
She says she’s been trying to hack Cisco
and has been using his handle to try and make contact. Mr Robot says
they need to talk to Whiterose directly. Darlene says if he does exist,
he won’t meet face to face. She says the tape backups shipped so they
still need a way around that. He says he has a plan in motion and she
says god is laughing. Elliot saves his Shayla files to disc and labels
them The Cure Disintegration. He takes apart his computer to wipe it
again. He microwaves the RAM chips.
Tyrell is bored in a meeting while some
other douche executives talk. Jeremy and Dwight start talking about how
there are some gay executives and some execs are turning cock jockey. He
abruptly fires Jeremy who just laughs and thinks he’s joking. Tyrell
tells all three of them are fired and will get minimum severance
packages. They ask Tyrell what they did wrong and he says nothing.
Angela bursts into Antara’s office.
She tells Angela that Colby’s lawyers
called and want a promise of immunity before the meeting which she just
obtained. She says Colby agreed but Angela has to go in and talk to him
alone. Antara says she made a ballsy move but says she’s in a dangerous
situation and asks Angela if she’s sure she wants to do this. Mr Robot
sits and smokes waiting for Romero who tells him he’s got too much going
on to get back involved with him. He says their last project came to
nothing.
Mr Robot says he’s pissing him off and
Romero gets in his face. Mr Robot reminds him that he’s crazy and not
the cute kind then he breaks some stuff and grabs Romero’s gun. He puts
in his face and says he loves him and just wants him to come back to the
arcade and change the world with him. He says bam and startles him. He
breaks some more stuff and Romero calls him a lunatic. Mr Robot reminds
him what he told him he would do to him if they didn’t finish this.
Angela goes to Colby’s house and he
comes in and says let’s get started. He asks how much she wants and
tells her to write a number. He says she can ask anything she wants but
says money will be better than what she wants to know. She asks if he
was at the 1993 executive board meetings. She asks if he was in the room
when they made Washington Township decisions. She says she can help him
if he answers her questions. He denies knowledge.
She says if he testifies against Evil
Corp for the Township case, she will testify that she broke chain of
custody with the dat file. He says he remembers her now. He says he’ll
answer the question but says he’s going to pull down his pants and he
wants her to swallow his big hairy balls. He says once they’re both in
her mouth he wants her to repeat her question then he’ll answer. She
doesn’t say anything. He pulls on his suit jacket and she says if he
doesn’t take the deal, he’ll become like her.
She says maybe he’ll live in this house
and have money but they will all still think he’s guilty. She sighs and
says losing everyone’s respect, of people he knows and doesn’t know, is a
shitty feeling. She says to trust her on that. She stands to leave. She
leaves. Elliot takes Flipper to the vet and the vet asks if she’s
microchipped. She says it’s all good then asks if the dog has eaten
trash before. She says the piece should pass on its own but she may puke
all over. She recommends crating the dog til it’s over.
Angela gets a call from Antara who says
Colby’s lawyers called and he wants to talk. She tells her to go back to
his house. Darlene finds Cisco in the park and he asks how long and she
says a couple of weeks. He asks how she had the nerve to use his ID to
ask for Whiterose. She asks if he responded. She says no one has to
know. Cisco chews her out for using his handle and says they are so done
and he doesn’t want to see her again. He says the meeting is on so she
got what she wants.
Angela goes back to talk to Colby who
tells her his lawyers are looking over the paperwork. He says he wants
to make sure she can pull off her testimony. She says she won’t trip up.
Colby asks what’s in this for her since she hates him. She says she
asked about the meeting and he never answered. Colby says if he agrees
to testify, he attended several meetings. She asks about them deciding
to ignore the leak. She asks what that meeting was like.
He says he gets it and she wants to know
did they laugh and smoke cigars. Colby says the world doesn’t work like
that and she asks how it works. Colby says it was January 93 and his
secretary was Elaine and they had shrimp cocktail in the meeting. Jim
opened the bar and started drinking Scotch. He says it was raining that
day. She says he was drunk, eating shrimp and it was raining when he
decided her mother would die.
Colby kind of hangs his head and she
says – that’s why, so people like him won’t keep sitting in rooms
together. She asks if any of it ever gave him pause when he made these
decisions. He says yeah but then you go home and have dinner and you
wake up the next day. We see Scott getting his big intro as CTO. Tyrell
glares and Joanna tells him to be steady. Sharon, Scott’s wife,
approaches Tyrell at the bar and asks if he’s still mad and says she
senses defeat.
She walks away and he follows. He says
he considers himself reprimanded and she says she can’t believe he gave
up and says he was nothing more than a bold entrance. He tells her to
meet him tonight and then says come to his office now. She says fine and
he says the roof and to take the back stairwell and says the cameras
have been out since March. She walks away. Angela tells Gideon that
she’s going to testify for Colby.
He says the company will go under and
that she didn’t break chain of custody. He says if she does this, all
these people will go down and their families that rely on their jobs
from Allsafe. Tyrell is on the roof staring at the skyline. Sharon comes
out and asks if this is where the rabbit hole leads and says she didn’t
think he would show up. He says he expected her to be a tattle tale.
She says she came to see if he’s that gullible. She says her husband is
getting the job he wants and he’s being gullible.
Tyrell says she needs this and she’s
dissatisfied, She says Scott will fire him and he’s desperate. He grabs
her and kisses her roughly. He pushes her down and kisses her then
chokes her. She struggles. They struggle. He keeps choking and she kicks
her legs trying to get away. Then the struggle stops as she goes limp.
He gets off of her and then covers his mouth with his hands. He starts
freaking out. He gets his handkerchief out and wipes his DNA off her
mouth. He leaves her there.
There is an Evil Corp commercial that Mr
Robot interrupts and says people realize there is no freedom of choice
with them in existence. He says to meet their demands or face
destruction. Darlene tells Trenton the plan is back on and they’re
meeting with Whiterose. Darlene says they need the group back together.
Trenton asks which part of the scheme motivates her. She says Darlene
just wants momentary anarchy. She says Romero wants fame. Trenton says
those reasons depress her.
Darlene asks what she wants and Trenton
says she doesn’t care then says her parents were born in Iran but came
here for freedom. She says her parents slaved and her mom ran up loans
to get an online degree. She says they will die in debt doing things
they never wanted to do – being American. Darlene says they landed
together out of billions of people on earth that they could never do
alone. She says they have this for the taking and need each other to see
it through.
Cisco approaches Ollie who says he’ll
call the cops but Cisco says he needs him to do something for him. Ollie
says to call Angela but Cisco threatens him and he shuts up and
listens. Elliot waits at Krista’s office and says he’s there for his
appointment. She’s surprised and says she can fit him in now. He sits
and says she told him to tell the truth. He asks if everything he says
will be protected and confidential. He says he’s been lying to her and
says he doesn’t take his pills and she doesn’t either.
He says her Ativan refill frequency
doesn’t match her dosage. He says this morning she bought a hazelnut
latte then texted her sister. He says she’s not good with money and says
she’s encouraging Marilyn, a patient, to leave her husband because
she’s tired of being dumped. He says she likes anal porn and told her BF
Jennifer she wishes her mom would die. He says he watches her crying on
her web cam. He says he cries too and says she’s lonely. He says he
hacks everyone.
He says friends, coworkers, everyone
gets hacked by him. He says he’s also helped a lot of people and says he
wants a way out of loneliness just like her. She sits in stunned
silence. He asks if that’s what she wanted to hear. Krista just stares
