Mr. Robot: Hello, Elliot (2019)
Season 4, Episode 13
10/10
The Greatest Finale to the Greatest Season of the Greatest Show
23 December 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Genuinely the most beautiful, mind bending, tense, well written and satisfying conclusion to a show I've ever seen. Rarely does a finale elevate the rest of the show but this episode makes every episode before it better by tenfold. What was one of the worst episodes of the series (in my opinion) Elliot's withdrawal in season one is now one of the most important episodes of the show. On one hand I am frustrated by the secrecy of Elliot's true self but on the other, this has never been about him, but his personalities building a better world for him and eventually losing control before accepting that their job is done and handing it back to the true Elliot. It's equal parts heartbreaking and wholesome. Mac Quayle, thank you for your incredible symphonies helping establish the totalitarian techno thriller atmosphere that was an important staple of the show. Thank you Rami Malek, Christian Slater, BD Wong, Portia Doubleday Carly Chaikin and EVERYONE else for bringing this incredible vision to fruition and making the characters your own. Thank you to Sam Esmail for this unmatched masterpiece of television which I doubt I will see surpassed in my lifetime and thank you to the rest of the crew behind the scenes for the sound mixing, incredible editing and enchanting cinematography. This show makes you feel like you are apart of its world, because you are, remember, this only works if you let go too. Goodbye, Friend.
