I don't think that the whole, "you're blocked by everyone" was really thought out. I thought in the middle act that the female cookie was going to kill of her 'original self.' I think that was the most interesting part of the show for me. So I can buy that they wouldn't torture the real person, since it's clearly less messy to construct the cookie environment. Jon Hamm said to the female cookie that "you're just a bunch of code now." They also showed that the real guy wouldn't talk, which is why they built that whole construct. So you can torture and enslave them with impunity. I think the point was, most people didn't consider the cookie to be "real" i.e., sentient. Jon Hamm said in the middle part of the show that you have to 'break' the 'cookie' so they'll be complaint. I'm curious why that process with Henry was an illegal service - it's not being a peeping Tom if the person consented to the Eye-link connection (which is basically an updated version of Google Glass streaming a live feed) ? But not reporting a murder and covering up involvement in it - yep, still a crime. Or the fact that the username of one of the guys in the techno-Cyrano De Bergerac group that Matt was hosting for Henry was I_AM_WALDO. I like the callback to the previous episodes - the song sung by Beth at the karaoke bar was the same song sung by Abi in the '15 Million Credits' episode at the Pop Idol style competition. I seem to remember the accelerated virtual prison time being done on 'The Outer Limits' several years ago.

Gave me the shivers.īut that blocking software was all kinds of wrong - the fact that it even retroactively blocked people from old photos was harsh.Īnd then after all that time to discover that his girlfriend cheated on him with a co-worker - I did not see that coming. Jon Hamm did a great job as Matt.Įnslaving a software version of yourself to run your very own smart house. That was creepy, and no one had a happy ending (or a Merry Xmas).
