The latest episode is a bit calmer than the excitement of the ORTBO, but moves the story forward. Outie Irving is on to something, but what? Helena is a bitch. Milkshake has his middle management performance review - which seems about the same at Lumen as it is in every other corporation. One oh-shit erases a hundred attaboys. [Reply]

Personally loved the paper clips facing the wrong direction issue.
Sounds like milcheck is going to go scorched earth taking it out on all of them. And seriously WTF is up with Miss Huang? It’s so weird. It’s so hard to get excited about Miss Casey because I want Helly and Mark to be the thing. But damn did milcheck cut mark deep in the elevator. [Reply]
It has got to be totally weird for the innies- they don't go home to decompress from work like everyone else does. They lose and regain consciousness in the elevator. For them, their entire existence is at work. Eww. And poor Helly, that was her first return since the Overtime Contingency, and days and weeks had passed for the others. They had already moved on from that, but it was still fresh for her.
Speaking of Helly, actor Britt Lower has played her character(s) nicely nuanced. Helly is so much more likable than Helena. Body language, facial tenseness. Nice job. Also playing Helena posing as an innie and sexing up her employee. [Reply]

Spoiler!
A melon made to resemble the face of a guy who "died"...being served at his funeral? No human would come up with such an idea.
Spoiler!
Not sure it needs to be in a spoiler since it's theory and not an actual spoiler, but I'm a fan of the theory that I've seen in here and other places that Milkshake is a permanent innie.
Milkshake seemed particularly incensed that Mark S. conjugated verbs with Helena Eagen, Kier heir apparent. Like it offended him at a core level.
Another loose plot thread: Milkshake, when explaining Cobel's dismissal, said she was obsessed with the Marks and trying to have a throuple. Any truth to that? Did Cobel have something to do with the disappearance of Gemma/Miss Casey, getting her out of the way so she could pursue the Marks? Or was she merely taking advantage of the opportunity. [Reply]
