Goofs

Quotes
Sophon: But why is one afraid while the other is not? Do individuals experience fear on their own?
Mike Evans: It's an individual emotion, yes.
Sophon: For us, fear is something we experience as one.
Mike Evans: Our ancestors were like that.
Sophon: Tiny mammals who survived by hiding. But it appears you have ceased to be afraid.
Mike Evans: Why do you say that?
Sophon: You contacted another planet. Is this the act of a timid species?
Mike Evans: Not a species. No, my Lord. A woman. A singular, fearless woman.
Sophon: Are there other fearless humans?
Mike Evans: Well, they show up from time to time. And we often look up to them as inspirations for others to follow.
Sophon: A lack of fear leads to extinction. If your ancestors had followed the fearless, you would not exist. Humanity must learn to fear again.
Mike Evans: Then we will teach them.

Here, we go deeper into the mysteries surrounding the VR game and its connection to the larger narrative.

While the heavy focus on VR may not be good to all viewers, the writers try to advance the plot through each level of the game with purpose and a reasons adds depth to the storyline itself.

As the episode is the real start of knowing the "aliens", the true meaning of the series begins to come into life.

Overall, this episode delivers a focused and compelling plots that try to explain some things in the series. Of course not mentioning the plot holes the episode succeeds in keeping us engaged and waiting to watch more!
