After last week's incredible capsule episode, full of emotional revelations and tension, this week deals with the fallout. It's not often that a TV show makes me cry, but the sheer tenderness and love that Mr. Robot shows was agonising is the face of everything Elliot has been through. Christian Slater has felt rather underused this season, but his short appearance in this episode blew me away. He's an amazing actor, and the chemistry and empathy he and Rami Malek have for each other is devastating.
I know the plot isn't exactly moving along at high speed, but this is Elliot's show and always has been. Bravo, everyone involved. Sam Esmail is a genius, and Mac Quayle again demonstrates his enormous range as a composer.
