It was Gwen who said that, not Celia
Carolyn Thraves
2025-02-27 23:58:09 +0000 UTCWait, Celia went to visit her family? Celia? Family??
Laura Korzelecka
2025-02-27 10:39:08 +0000 UTCNot listening to Colin certainly makes for a more interesting story

Adam Augusta
2024-10-21 23:37:56 +0000 UTCIs it just me or is Alice’s voice extra whiny and annoying?
Wes Yates
2024-10-11 05:19:04 +0000 UTCProbably lives in the sketchy AI phone app, since all the listening in seemed to be happening only with phones.
James Rule
2024-10-10 13:30:58 +0000 UTCIf I remember correctly from earlier episodes Alice tended to be faster, but Gwen was more thorough. So by raw numbers, Alice would look like the better employee. And let's face it, if Lena got a chance to fire Gwen she'd take it.
James Rule
2024-10-10 13:26:50 +0000 UTCGwen talked to her father 👀
Honey Coffee
2024-10-10 10:35:47 +0000 UTCTo be honest, I'm kinda glad they didn't listen to Colin. Everyone is to depressed by life, Not depressed by supernatural and eldritch beings. 😆
Niamh Introverted Cosplayer
2024-10-10 09:26:23 +0000 UTCWas Alice that good at her job to be picked over Gwen? Or did Colin influence that decision? Hmmm
Ashes
2024-10-09 08:25:48 +0000 UTCCrack theory: Teddy works for a pyramid scheme.

Mosey Walker
2024-10-09 01:29:57 +0000 UTCOk, where THE HELL is Teddy working at?? This is gonna come up in the regular series, won't it?
Grace 'Gengar' Soria
2024-10-08 22:50:04 +0000 UTCIs it just me or is there just a lot of emphasis on water in this series?
Jayson Bailey
2024-10-08 22:12:01 +0000 UTCHuh! Hm! Y'know, it's weird, I can.. almost feel my empathy for Colin uh.. slipping away. Like sundew. (An INCREDIBLY sad episode, makes me want to give everyone a hug <3)
Alatus Dusted Beast
2024-10-08 20:37:47 +0000 UTCWHY IS THIS SO SAAAAD BUT I NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT TEDDY'S JOB (and smt tells me s2 will bring that about ...)
MarlaBothBothIsGood
2024-10-08 19:56:45 +0000 UTCThis feels... Sad. Gwen has to go along with what her family forces her to do, Alice is alone and Colin doesn't seem to actually care. At least Sam is doing somewhat better.
Jakub
2024-10-08 17:54:43 +0000 UTCThis makes me feel.... sad.
AgentWGD
2024-10-08 17:07:03 +0000 UTCProof that even if thru left the OIAR, the Forces were still going to try to grab them back into the fold.
Heather MacKenzie
2024-10-08 16:54:20 +0000 UTCThey live in the tunnels now. I mean, the cable system.
Reynard Du Maurier
2024-10-08 16:18:07 +0000 UTCOk, Teddy's new job is raising alarm bells.
James Rule
2024-10-08 16:01:18 +0000 UTCFor reaaaaal! Why are they so interested in former OIAR employees???
Erica
2024-10-08 15:57:33 +0000 UTCOof I'm worried about Gwen here. She's less composed in the canon universe, but at least she's making her own decisions. Here she seems almost... defeated. Like she's just going along with what her family wants.
Erica
2024-10-08 15:56:09 +0000 UTCSus af!
EldritchGay
2024-10-08 15:49:11 +0000 UTCCan confirm, the timeline where everyone does the rational thing is usually the most boring 🤣
RedDedZombie
2024-10-08 15:38:03 +0000 UTCMaybe? SOMETHING is still listening but it seems stuck
Thorn
2024-10-08 15:37:15 +0000 UTCI agree, if she was put in a position on whether to sacrifice some random person or her baby? She’d go with someone completely random. She is only human though, and feelings are bound to happen.
HeavenlyBibi
2024-10-08 15:34:12 +0000 UTCWhy did I thought it would be Colin convincing everyone to smash the computers with hammers? But this is the bleak timeline
Sugar-Brown
2024-10-08 15:32:20 +0000 UTCI think it's both. She liked him, but her baby was more important so she used him.
Sugar-Brown
2024-10-08 15:31:17 +0000 UTCInteresting how in this scenario, something is still listening to them through their electronics, just not through the office computers anymore. 🤔 But oof! This was an odd mix of “Well… at least they’re all alive and relatively safe” and “Nooo! They’re breaking up the team! And they got rid of my computer boys!” 😭
Trisidael
2024-10-08 15:30:45 +0000 UTCTeddy your job sounds sketchy AF
Skyeoak
2024-10-08 15:27:52 +0000 UTCI’m happy to be on the same page as Celia specifically targeting Sam. I had quite enough of Celia-apologists.
Reynard Du Maurier
2024-10-08 15:26:49 +0000 UTCIt’s really interesting how in this scenario, had they listened to Colin, Celia wouldn’t have targeted Sam and Gwen would be searching for something else. Not to mention that Teddy immediately swooped in to get Sam and Gwen into the same place he possibly went to.
HeavenlyBibi
2024-10-08 15:22:46 +0000 UTCColin is an agent of the Lonely confirmed.
GloriousGe0rge
2024-10-08 15:18:40 +0000 UTCWHY DIDNT THEY LISTEN TO COLIN NOOO
RedCanary
2024-10-08 15:18:38 +0000 UTCI can’t really articulate this feeling I feel between “gawd at least they’re alive” and “HAVE THEY JUST RE-FORMATTED MY FRIENDS?!”
