This episode was nothing short of a visionary masterpiece. Watching it again after recent events, I was struck by how eerily prophetic it felt. Whiterose's plan to install a president who would serve foreign interests plays out with chilling accuracy. Trump, as depicted, fulfilled that role-accelerating the unraveling of America's global dominance from within. Within the first 100 days, the U. S. dollar lost nearly 9%, billions vanished from the stock markets, investors fled, and gold surged. It's hard not to connect these dots. This is my first-ever review, driven by admiration for the genius who wrote this.
This most likely was the worst episode in the season, but this was still a great episode. My favorite characters in this episode were Tyrell, Irving, and Ernseto. My favorite things about this episode were the Protagonist, the storyline, and the ending. My mom saw the guy in the white suit and told me that she observed that he is always eating a sandwich. When I told her that I liked him, she told me that he has no Dialogue, but i told him that he does in the fourth season. This episode wasn't as good as I thought it would be on rewatch, but overall, this was still a great episode. I can't wait for my mom to watch episodes 5-10.
At first, the season 1 finale left me feeling confused, befuddled, and a little cheated with its crypticness. Over the months that followed, I grew to love it as a piece of art, but still went into season 2 with expectations of answers. And of course, season 2 just heaped on more questions. Now, in season 3, we finally get to see the night of the hack and Tyrell's subsequent disappearance. This is the episode I wanted so badly out of season 2 and never got. Ironically enough, now that I've finally seen it, I'm realizing that season 2 pretty much told us everything we needed to know in answer to those questions, and that a lot of the information in this episode was ultimately redundant. However, it's still incredibly satisfying to be filling in the gaps. Plus, the episode had two major twists and a cameo from a masterclass actor I had thought was retired.
The episode focused primarily on Tyrell and his hideout in season 2. I'm glad we got to spend an entire episode developing his character because I didn't quite get him in season 1 and he spent most of season 2 shrouded in mystery, so I never really got the chance to invest in or understand him. But now, thanks to this episode (especially the mid-episode interrogation scene featuring a cameo from a world-class actor who I could have sworn was retired) I feel like I really have a grasp on his motivation. Irving also got quite a bit of development in this episode, not to mention a lot of good quips.
While the episode was mostly a matter of filling in the gaps in season 2, it did also contain two major plot twists, both involving the surprise reveal of the loyalties of previously introduced characters. I predicted one of them back in season 2, but the other caught me completely by surprise (though it makes a lot of sense). I'll leave it up to you to decide which one I predicted.
All in all, despite not advancing the present day story-line one iota, this was a tremendously satisfying episode that did not suffer at all from the long buildup to it.

My Reaction / Review for Mr. Robot Season 3 Episode 3: Episode 2 was good and I gave it a rating of 7.5/10. Tyrell's laughing is so weird. Im a bit confused, I cant understand if the scene with Mr Robot, Tyrell and Irving is in the past or present. I guess it's in the past. So we finally get to see how Tyrell disappeared. So we will spend the rest of the episode watching what happened in the past? I don't like the idea. Dominique's boss works for White Rose? Wow didn't expect that. Love how Tyrell mostly cares about wearing his suit. Ok, while I wasnt the biggest fan of an episode that is all about what happened in the past but the episode is very decent and entertaining. My rating is 7.7/10.
