The circles are a real thing.


The Saul dumpster thing with the milk cartons after the throwbacks to Howard and Hector.


The cliff-hanger on another slow-burn episode.


And the animals..... the coyotes and the crows. The animals are coming more into the story.

Such a great show.

Thank you.

How about that roundabout traffic circle where they all boarded the vehicles to leave town
(“And then there were none” book on nightstand metaphor about that)

Or the Circles made of Lines on India ladies walls.

And I didn’t even realize until this one that Carol’s cup de sac which is egregiously altered to exaggerate a circle has an equally exaggerated sewer cap circle in its dead center surrounded and within by a nonsensical concrete circle

I will say that the first 7 or 8 minutes of this episode to me are the finest of any of BB or BCS or this one when it comes to the geometry themes . Just a masterpiece. Lots of lines were in reflections off of things. It was so in your face over the top this opener. culminating in Carol getting to the top …THE PEAK…of the roof and the hive exodus departs on the wide shot of the highway Lines and off ramp Circles. Just incredible

-also the bar code lines from ep3 we’re back. Obviously

-there’s another thing I mentioned way back in ep 1 about the railroad lines when the two nerds who have never thrown a football were throwing a football. I thought that was inportant. But then it was crickets in the railroad lines for 4 episodes…

-until tonight….at Agri- Jet!

-there they were next to where Carol parked, baby! Wooooo

-and I f’n love the cliff hangar ending

-this guy isn’t going to cop out and we find out next episode that the cliffhanger is a nothing burger. The whole thing is about to ramp up into unexpected weirdsville

The only thing that sucks is we’re already down to 4 episodes left.

What a show

Also, I went back looking for something and found something I wasn’t even looking for….

Holy mf’n’ shite

Does anyone want to go to the 15:04 mark thru approx 15:24 where Carol sits bitterly and waits for the drone to pick up her sim cards?

And then….please tell me what you see illuminated on the left side of the screen (taking into account the shadows it throws to each side like the wings of a butterfly

12:12 she says Alien Virus. How would she know that? Maybe your theory about "we're all living in her next book" theory has legs.

The clock over her shoulder at 2:23 in the hospital appears to be at 11:27.

I don't know what that means. But in a Saul episode, there was a clock at the Vet's office that corresponded to the Season-Episode, like S4 E11 so the clock showed 4:11. It wasn't 4 11, I don't remember what it was, but I do know that the times shown on clocks in the background are intentional.

Theres also the whole deal we havent talked about with the symbolic number they used for how many Others are left on earth

-Including Carol, there are 13 that are the last not to have joined

-In the Bible, there were 13 individuals at The Last Supper. Jesus and his 12 Disciples

-you remember from Sunday school, what happened at that last meal, what was prophesied, and what happened afterwards with the denials, and betrayals and arrest and trial crucifixtion resurrection

-im not saying Carol is Jesus, but theyre using themes from The Last Supper. We need to be looking for and anticipating them. Who of the 13 could be Judas Iscariot? Paraguayan dog food boy maybe?

-Also on the Biblical theme, remember back to the first time Zosia ever appeared on screen in this show. They show this person walking up the mountain in Jesus robe, with Jesus sandals, and the standard Jesus haircut. I was thing, what the heck man. She was made to look like Him before we realized it was a lady and she loaded some bodies and tore off on a scooter

-And then…..later…..when she goes into cardiac arrest and they show the rosetta stone petri dish overhead circle shot of her lying there as the infection surrounds her…..she is made to look like arms are spread out and shes on a cucifix

-this is crazy

That was one of the best geometry frames from the opening

It had Carol int the center with the ever present parallel lines only on the left and the only thing on the right was a circle (the clock)

Has legs. Ha! Like a caterpillar chrysalis

Theink about how they also show her learning how to suppress her typical trademark Carol grumpiness in this one.

Remember back to the first episode. She was as charming and amicable as she could be in front of her fans at the book signing. Then once in the car, shes back to grumpy Carol bitching about everything. She knows how to turn it on and off for business.

They show her learning how to do this in this episode. when she makes the recordings to send to the other 12 disciples. At first shes grumpy Carol as usual, but realizes that wont work. So, she deletes its and does another take with a smile and some compassion. Suppress emotion to get the business done

Plur1bus is Bitter Chrysalis, son. Its her story of struggling on how to fit into a world where she feels she doesnt belong. Bitter Caterpillar to butterfly

Another thing I want to put on your radar, so that when it happens, you clinch your fist and raise it above your head thinking back to this post….

The whole deal of Carol failing to get the shotgun from backseat of cop car when she needed it, but then falling asleep and waking up and realizing all she had to do was press a little button to realease it was 100,000% a seed planted

Carol is going to use that shotgun on someone or something in the near future, so, ahead of time, they had to establish 1) that the gun exists 2) and that she knows how to access it and 3) and that she just proved she is willing to use it on something

If they hadnt done this now, it would seem goofy and unrealistic when she eventually pulls the gun on whatever it ends up being. It wouldve been like, wait, what, she had a gun the whole time.

And the whole reason they picked the cop car for her mode of transportation in the first place to replace the unicorn hood truck was because it would be a method for how Carol would come to obtain a weapon.

Remember the shotgun

Bank on it

More biblical references




That’s what we saw this episode. There was an Exodus

I’m not saying that the cliff hanger is Carol finding out that the hive is killing all the newborn male babies, but the hive is definitely worried about the conservation and the size of humanity and they are definitely doing some fricked up shite at AgriJet and aren’t the nice harmless beings they appear to be

I feel like Carol will have her own exodus soon too. Maybe to Vegas which was shown in one of the teaser deals before the series started. That’s where greasy playboy fellow was headed in AirForce1 with his harem too

I had another theory - Carol obviously saw something at Agri-Jet that freaked her out

My theory was - her dead lovers body or the aliens body of the girl they said would be fine. I could be totally off base on that. I guess if the wolves were trying to dig the hole - that body would still be there.

Also had to theories about the Agatha Novel - I believe it's probably a reference to all the aliens abandoning Carol and no longer having any contact and or - a reference to the other 13 no longer being available - and possibly that's what she saw at the facility.


No one has responded to her packages - Carol isn't sure if her packages are even being sent but that also leaves a cliff hanger to see if anyone responds. I'll go back and try and catch the clock references.

Just thoughts

More thoughts - the wolves were a huge feature in this past episode. The wolves were scavenging for food - out of necessity for survival - it's biologically coded. Then we learned of the milk all the aliens drink.

Well- the next episode is called HDP - with knowing that Carol made a horrific discovery - could that HDP mean Human Derived Protein - meaning the aliens are eating dead humans - for survival and that is what was discovered at Agri Jet? We know the aliens are preferred Vegetarian's and don't harm humans but do they have a biological imperative to survive which requires cannibalism?

This could be used as a convincing measure to get the other 13 to actually try and find a solution - right now the 13 see the aliens as harmless and helpful - but cannibalism?

I don't think they ever said vegan, I think it was more like they won't kill a living animal to eat it, so maybe if it dies on its own, it is fair game.

You might be on to something.

They want to whittle earths humanity down to 1

1 consciousness. 1 footprint. 1 left

If you can’t eat animals and Sprouts is rationed in some central place, the 13 (Carol and the 12 disciples) will starve out

I was reminded by a poster in another Pur1bus thread- early on the hive told her "We can't protect you from each other"

Foreshadowing some conflict? Maybe Party Guy doesn't want the Hive undone, and goes after Carol?
