Love this show but the Commodore 64 interrogation scene was laughable

Oh please, The Leftovers makes much less sense. Mr Robot is very well written, and recycles films to create space for throwing up theories. Season 1 made sense mostly after every piece got to it's place, this'll make much more sense in a week, than now.
Uh never mentioned or even seen The Leftovers guy so not sure why you brought it up. And one show not making sense doesn't detract from this show not making sense. If you call Mr. Robot 'well written' then that says it all. Its become overindulgent with paper thin characters. -

Valley girl accent
It was not self-indulgent or trigger warning pretentious. It was magnificent! Mysterious! Philosophycal! Intriguing! It was Lynchian! Kubrickian! True Detective Season 2ian! You're like too dumb to get it, you know? -

Jump the Shark? Just because of a scene involved Commodore 64 you have to be stupid to think because of that it jumped the shark.
Trolls need to stop using words like "Pretentious" or "Jump the Shark" because you sound like a moron because of using words without any sense what they mean. -

I get that Whiterose is eccentric but I doubt that he would go to all that trouble and set up that entire situation just to meet a small fry pawn like Angela.
Then you totally missed the reason he needed to meet her, why he didn't kill her months ago, why he gave her this out. Not that Whiterose doesn't have yet further plans for Angela
Be sure to proof your posts to see if you any words out -

I agree. This scene threw me at first; it was so odd. But I realised that Whiterose actually has a great sense of the theatrical, behind that cold exterior. You can tell, too, that BD Wong is having a blast with the role.
After watching this ep a few times, I realised that Angela is NOT an analog to Nabokov's or Kubrick's
Lolita
(that's Darlene - check out her user name), but to the mature, albeit twisted figure of Humbert Humbert, who loves Lolita butwell, read the book! Angela is the one who has memorised the passage about the key, right from the novel. She has the ear of Price and hopefully will use rather than BE used by him. She is the one Whiterose expects will be able to open doors, unlike Elliot and Darlene, who are hampered by abusive pasts and grief. Darlene is the Lolita analog.
As for Whiterose, I liken her to Nabokov's personification of Fate (he even names it), the controller of all human destiny. How else is she/he, a Chinese national, able to slip in and out of the U.S., setting up storefronts, houses and entire branches of a foreign army of hackers?
Naahhhthis scene isn't important at ALL!
I followed all the rulesand you followed none of them. And they all loved you more.
