Another great episode. Lots of tension. Could have been nice to do a Fight Club ending on the scene with Darlene and Angela and the building exploding in the background.
The dynamics between Eliott and Mr Robot changes again. They communicate again, but not talking face to face. It would be too much if it became a regular gimmick, but as a one time thing it was perfectly used here, in just the right action. The way Mr Robot is fighting to take control, undoing what Eliott just did over and over, 15 minutes, 3, and then just a few seconds trying to interfere anyway he can. That was great.
And all that effort and struggle, even both of them cooperating, for almost nothing in the end. That was a nice finish.
Wondering now what it will mean for Mr Robot. He agreed to help Eliott because he thought detroying the building was useless. But if they blew them all, the goal is still accomplished... except in the one they saved. However, he didn't know that, meaning it's not his operation anymore, he's not in control.
What about Angela ? She's probably the one who started it all in the previous episode, she's the one responsible for all the deaths. So will she crash or go full with Whiterose hoping it will all be erased ?
So even if there was a buildup to this episode's actions, it sets up a lot of interesting future interactions. Great job. Just hope that the Tyrell story doesn't go in innocent prisonner the-bad-guys-made-me-do-it mode, that would be boring.
Also, Dom is awesome ! That scene where she explores the underground is superb.
