Some 'clarification' to someone who's starting over
Disclaimer/FAQ:
-Started with S01 way back when (around when it first came out, really loved it, but then dropped it. No specific reason. Life just got in the way.
-YouTube videos sort of 'spoiled' the last twist - At least the [gross] dad part.
-Something something Mr. Hackerman (the Elliot we mostly follow) is/was another Personality.- NO, this post isn't/wasn't written with "AI🥴", I just use em dashes. I'm an old person.
With that out of the way.
Just to get some perspective on the events, and not get confused.
I'm starting the show again, this time I fully intend to watch the whole thing. Might take a few days.
Anyway, in eps1.0_hellofriend.mov,
Elliot and Mr. Robot, when they enter the Fsociety hq, Leslie Romero only looks at Elliot - doesn't even seem to acknowledge Mr.R.
And in this particular screenshot, this is what we (the audience) sees but 'in reality' Elliot isn't really standing there, he's actually sitting where Mr. Robot is, right?
Is that what we are working with?
From the POV of the other characters, they just saw Elliot/Mr.Robot walk in, grab some popcorn, pour himself a drink and sit down at his terminal, right?
