Re: Mr Robot
I dont recall him being associated with being at that guys house, or that company party, while working at all safe at the same time.
Im all for finding out who he is and what side stories are going on but seems like we're swinging in the dark when we just say that he's just everybody.
The times square scene where all of a sudden no one is there? You can see that Elliot's mind can do anything as far as what he sees. Either he imagined all the people or he imagined them all disappearing.Comment

Re: Mr Robot
I still think that Tyrell is probably real, but there were lots of things in this episode that point to him possibly being Elliot.

Re: Mr Robot
If I criticized the show earlier for the "what is real and what not is real" angle, I have to say at this point I'm really satisfied with the payoff. I'm glad I have other shows to buffer my wait for season 2.Comment

Re: Mr Robot
The popcorn gun (Darlene stole)and Tyrell don't appear in the finale, and Elliot wakes up in his SUV like three days later. Coincidence? That right there is enough to make the casual viewer even partially suspect that Elliott could be Tyrell. No one knows for sure.
So basically overall we don't know what happened to Tyrell. We don't know where Elliot was on the days in which the hack went down. We don't know what thought process drove Angela to work for the company that's responsible for killing her mother.
We just watched a complete first season, and we don't know anything other than whiterose looked cozy with evil corp in the post credits scene.Comment

Re: Mr Robot
So far, the only thing we can confirm is that Mr. Robot was in Elliot's head the whole time. If you watch back the footage, he's only appeared when Elliot was around. The only two scenes I can think of where Mr. Robot was not physically with Elliot was when Mr. Robot was in the van while they were at Steel Mountain and when Mr. Robot was interacting with Tyrell in Tyrell's vehicle. None of those scenes were too far out. When there were some members of fsociety in the van, none of them actually talked to Mr. Robot, in fact, Mr. Robot was sitting behind Romero and Mobley.
There was a scene where Romero was interacting with Mr. Robot while Elliot was withdrawing and later Romero and Mobley left the motel, but it's either possible Romero was just talking to Mobley while looking at Elliot's bed or it never happened as Elliot was clearly hallucinating in scenes after that and Romero and Mobley were by Elliot's side when he stabilized.
Elliot could have easily imagined himself as Mr. Robot while talking to Tyrell.
Now to believe that Elliot is Tyrell is going a step too far. That would be entering a state where events clearly didn't happen and were completely imagined in Elliot's mind. Like Tyrell living in his own house with a wife that recently had a baby, Tyrell invited to the CTO candidate's home, the CTO candidate, Scott Knowles, confronting Tyrell about the washroom incident, Tyrell strangling Knowles' wife to death, Tyrell's conversations with Gideon and the CEO of Evil Corp.Comment

Re: Mr Robot
Yeah, but compare the differences in demeanor between Elliot talking to Tyrell in the restroom and Mr Robot conversing with Tyrell in the car. When talking to Elliot, Tyrell was smarmy and condescending. In the car with Mr Robot was the Swede taken aback by the surprise aggressiveness of Elliot or was he reacting to Slater/Mr. Robot?Comment

You can argue that Elliot was cutting the bs, and showing his true personality in the car knowing Tyrell already doesn't see him as an innocent tech.
Since Tyrell revealed that he knows about Elliot's hack, there's no need to be swarmy anymore. He grabbed Mr. Robot by the collar, he threaten him. Tyrell did seem less smug in the car and more serious, but he was feeling more desperate at the time and he was trying to get down to business.Comment

SpoilerI was just thinking back at how episode 9 ended and I sense some foreshadowing here. With the way the score way playing, you assume that Tyrell was having a moment with Elliot and they were going to work together. But Elliot was looking at the popcorn machine before the scene cuts out and I thought nothing about it at the time, but like you mentioned, there was a gun stashed in the popcorn machine.
I wonder if Elliot used the gun on Tyrell and maybe that's why he's missing.Comment

Re: Mr Robot
Logistically I don't see how Tyrell can be a delusion / part of Elliot but the scene with his wife has be second guessing it. Her line of questioning/tone is strange; she tests him with swedish to see if he gets it; and she seems sad by the end of the conversation realizing her husband is nuts. But I don't see how 1 person can be in so many places at once. Between the hacking, 2 different jobs, a girlfriend, a dog, & a wife he would need to be the most efficient guy in the world.
I give myself half credit on the Darlene twist. When she first showed up I completely forgot about the hacker girl he met at the arcade and figured it was his sister. She had no boundaries for his personal space by breaking in, overshared way too much to be a stranger, and especially the line about 'of course I know where you live'.
I was watching it like okay this is his sister...oh wait it's that chick from before...you idiot how did you forget about her and think she was his sister.Comment

Re: Mr Robot
Yeah I've stopped figuring it out awhile ago. It's too crazy to make sense of it and it's fascinating to me.

I could almost see how Elliot is one of Tyrells personalities. Some guy in a high profile high stress job has an alter ego rents a floppy apartment with minimal furnishings and goes on morphine benders off the grid. But that scenario doesn't fit logistically either.
Fascinating show. I kind of wish they would have kept it to ones season though and told a story. Shows like this become popular, they look to stretch them out for the sake of revenue and in the end, they end up with inconsistent writing and storylines that don't go anywhere. See Lost as the perfect example.Chalepa Ta Kala.....Comment
