That last bit of the episode was almost traumatic, engraved in my mind for some time. Like it brought out something primitive or fundamental in me, like a child. Great episode.

[@EnigmaGameMaster]

@@lnlyby_yt Same, White Christmas and White Bear did that too. Shut up and dance as well. I think Black Mirror is the most messed up show ever made.

[@J_WheelerDoll30]

@@EnigmaGameMaster that’s what makes it intriguing & relatable. Most of the episodes are literally happening to us or some other people in the world.

Playtest is one of those Black Mirror episodes that is too unsettling to watch until the end. Technology has its dark side, after all, and somehow it’s us humans who have to pay the consequences as a result of abusing them.

[@ButtersCCookie]

Great insight. You rock.

[@willisverynice]

Sounds pretty sus to me

[@user-tz2zz5ij1s]

Of course humans pay the consequences of the negative sides of technology. Technology exists to make things easier for humans. We have not invented anything that we didn’t think would benefit us in either a direct or non direct way. There is always a negative, whether it is increased laziness, increased social withdrawal and escapism toward more and more stimulating games and vr, to false senses of self intelligence when the intelligence is based on instant access to information.

[@PiCheZvara]

Well, so all there was to his life was one bully, spiders, the girl he met in UK and his mom? Where was his father? His friends? His former lovers? Teachers? Etc.? Good theory, but the content he visualized is too brief to be a life summary.

[@phraze410]

40 mins in 0.04s. This is was a total awesome horror thriller suspense short movie!!!! This was better than many movies. This is the ultimate twilight zone vibe.

[@baerishlyakita3711]

Here’s another fun Easter egg for the Japanese dialogue: if you watch the episode in the Japanese voices, all of Saito and Katie’s lines are dubbed over on purpose, even the spoken Japanese parts EXCEPT at the very end, after Cooper’s mom calls. When Katie and Saito discuss what happened, they actually use the original actors’ dialogue (sans the “Mom” line from Katie). My guess is to also show that this was the actual reality, not the one nor the perceived voices inside Cooper’s subconscious. Also a strange oversight or a purposeful mistake is Katie mispronouncing Saito’s name initially when introducing Cooper to him in the English dialogue voices.

[@karolclark791]

I did find it strange how he doesn't under the word "fun" then proceeds to have a full conversation in English

[@kuaram8217]

​@@karolclark791I believed that he had just learnt enough English to be able to have that specific conversation only. Like memorizing what he had to say. So he didn't know the basic word "fun" because it wasn't meant to be a part of the conversation.

[@asuka-ryo]

I watched it on Netflix Japan, wouldn't have noticed that if I didn't read this comment

[@kamillakovago2488]

they didnt dubbed the mum in the hungarian version neither

[@RoxiieSays]

Awesome breakdown!! I definitely think that the signature page that was “missing” from the release, was done in purpose. And the document that Katie came back with was completely different and Cooper literally signed his life away.

[@TertiaryQuota]

nahhhh because if the company was keen on keeping Saito's latest game a secret, Katie wouldnt have even kept Connor's phone in the same room with him. Katie is portrayed as rlly intuitive imo and it felt so out of character when she came back with the papers and didnt even question the fact that his phone turned back on when his mum called. Maybe they didnt thoroughly test to see if phone signals could tamper with the cookie or whatever but idk i think youre really right.

[@pickleioi9058]

this episode is so underrated. beautifully acted and truly haunting episode.

[@Tomixx1199]

several years ago when a friend asked if I would get an implant in my brain once they were out on the market, I said yea it sounds cool and I'm not afraid of it. This episode has changed my mind.

[@abeltesfaye_]

This episode is so scary to me, probably their freakiest one yet and it's hard for me to watch all the way through. I've probably seen it 7 times in all, meanwhile I could watch any BM episode over and over again and I have haha. White Christmas with Jon Hamm is my absolute favorite, he was MADE for that role (literally, the episode director had Jon in mind to play it 😏)

[@iamsemjaza]

The most disturbing shot in this episode is Sonia shoving that filthy knife into the butter.

[@Healthevoid]

Lol right ! So unnecessary

[@robertiv5601]

The part where he calls out for his mom before dying is what gets me... just too fking brutal m8

[@Torboy124]

This episode put me through a spin, it was so saddening how he died. Its such a scary yet psycho experience

[@Sense71]

First he shouldn't have never turned his phone on in the first place; all he had to do is call his mother, then she wouldn't have to call him! That was the simple lesson from this story.

[@elliottpak]

Sonja even said your second point to Cooper early in the episode.

[@rwbyab7423]

Tbh when I clicked this video I figured it was just going to be some rehash of the episode's basic premise, but I was real impressed how deep and psychological everything actually was. Definitely interested in hearing more from you!

[@Pining_for_the_fjords]

I wasn't a fan of this episode when I saw it, but it's interesting you mentioning all the parallels between things he saw in the real world and things he dreamt later, similar to Mulholland Drive. My main problem with the episode is that none of the things he experienced, nor his death, meant anything. It's literally just an "it was all a dream" ending. And his death was apparently a complete accident. If they had known that phone signals could kill somebody connected to the machine, they would have been super strict about it from the beginning, searching or scanning him for any similar devices, letting him know about the risks and making him leave his phone outside the room, preferably in a box which completely blocks phone signals. There's nothing to be learnt from his death. He didn't die because of his poor relationship with his mum, he didn't die because of his thrillseeking lifestyle, he died because he tried an experimental technology before they'd ironed out all the bugs.

[@MonkeyDBunmi]

I love how he reads with script with such excitement u know he loves what he’s talking about

[@bryanvonstase6755]

The top props i can give to the jumpscares in this episode was the spider with human--like features. That made me sh1t inside. I even had a nightmare like that (after this episode), where a machine produced human/spider like creatures. They even had the big black dark eyes without pupils or iris. (6 or 8 eyes) THEY EVEN HAD HAIR ON THEIR LEGS! But something told me that they were harmless and more afraid of me then i was of them.

[@bryanvonstase6755]

Btw they had an average size of an adult house-cat, so they were pretty big on my opinion.

[@kryptonkx-personaluse-3826]

You’re the reason we don’t have good horror movies anymore.. The guy really getting ptsd from a spider made in blender 🤦‍♂️ If you’re that weak, stay on cartoons. It’s funny how some people find these episodes disturbing when in fact they’re barely watchable (recycling the old formulas on a more boring timeline).

[@thatguywhoasked2823]

​@@kryptonkx-personaluse-3826ur just a kid who didn't like the ep and got offended 😂

[@TLEawareness]

This episode hits kinda close to home. I have temporal lobe epilepsy with seizure auras and this episode pretty much gets the aura down to a T. It takes seconds for the actual seizure to kick in and I black out but the fear and horror seems to last an eternity until I finally black out. I get the feeling I’m some place I shouldn’t be and there is someone or something that doesn’t want me there. I get Jamais vu (opposite of de ja vu) so my most common and well known environment can become completely foreign and unrecognizable. Fun thing too is they want to implant something into my vagus nerve to try and help control them. It was crazy though when she mentioned the brain firing off all at once because that’s what happens to the neurons in your brain during the seizure. Also usually the neurons fire about 80 times a second but during a seizure they can fire up to 500 times a second. The episode was really really crazy. Then at the end it shows him pretty much having a seizure.

[@8bitbrawler11]

I unfortunately know exactly what you're talking about :(

[@TLEawareness]

@@8bitbrawler11 we are warriors! Never give up never surrender!

[@stefaniskaya1283]

My mother had the same type of seizures and described her auras in a pretty similar way. She got the same kind of implant. Unfortunately it did not help her seizures. They got more and more frequent.. but they were able to locate the exact little spot in her brain that was causing the seizures and removed it. Not a seizure in over ten years. I do hope the implant works for you! I hope that your epilepsy can be managed and that you are seizure free soon.

[@vinceee_r]

I had a seizure one time(at least thats what the doctors told my parents) and im not sure if this is how it’s supposed to be like but when i went through it, i was in the hospital bed staring at the door one min, then the next second, i see my dad in at the end of my bed telling me that the doctors said i had a seizure. There was no blacking out for me. Is that normal?

[@aryanmishra8629]

An AMAZING analysis. I watched the show way back and completely forgot about how it rolled out, but before watching this I gave the episode another go and its absolutely mind blowing. this episode just made the whole experience better because I uncovered a lot of things I didn't notice.

[@margarita1776.]

This is the only episode that I believe has a genuinely good ending. Him dying is part of the game. That was his biggest fear being realized: dying alone, in a foreign country, without his mom knowing where he went or if he will ever return to her.

[@icanfixthat3890]

Did anyone notice that when he first entered the gaming company and while he was walking around what he jokingly referred to as “Hogwarts” there was a guy (or girl) working on a character model. That exact same model was his childhood bully “Josh Peters” this makes me wonder when did those 0.05 seconds start?? This is the one episode that still has me thinking

[@gishigoshi]

I never even realized his name name is Cooper Redfield which is similar to Chris redfield from resident evil which is a video game about being in a spooky mansion

[@metagasm820]

Great video but I wanted to point out that Andrew Ryan didn’t program the protagonist of Bioshock to respond to the phrase “Would you kindly,” it was Frank Fontaine. He was using that phrase on the protagonist to get him to kill Andrew Ryan, and Andrew Ryan revealed it to the protagonist.

[@fanboyshypad61]

Id go as far as to say its deeper inset trauma mixed with the load stimuli from the game tha specially hit all his fears at once whilst it happens in less than a second the brain processes it at light speed and he perceived it stretched to well the whole episode

[@g0dzilla_au]

21:30 It's the same in Japanese too. The kanji for death and 4 share the same reading: "shi". From what i've seen "yon" is a more common way of saying the number 4 as it avoids the "death" reading

He was set up by that girl. After he gets with her she drains his acct while he sleeps. When he finds himself broke he goes back to her and she directs him to Saito.

Playtest absolutely reminds me of the last acid trip I took It was an absolute hellish experience where I couldn't tell what was real and what wasn't by the end of it and was left in a mental state where I thought that I had slipped into the wrong timeline and the only way to get back to my original timeline was to kill myself in the false timeline, Play test really hit home with me

[@gnosisi]

omg are you literally me? I just finished watching it and I'm having a mild panick attack rn. That one trip I had felt like this EXACTLY. Couldn't distinguish reality from what's inside my head, and everytime I thought I break out of it I was still there, the endless spiraling, fractal-like mind prison. The insecurity lasted for days even after the trip. sheesh. Even now a little.. I think I'm traumatized for good.

[@someweirdguy5721]

@@gnosisi it's okay at least there is someone else who gets it, it'll probably be with you forever. Luckily I already had that happen with salvia so after I sobered up I knew how to cope with it, but yeah it was like waking up into a different nightmare over and over and over.

[@CharlesVanNoland]

I remember that I never had a dream where I "woke up" and it ended up still being a dream until after I had learned of the concept itself in life. I remember as a kid learning about the concept of "lucid dreaming" and my inclination when I finally realized I was in a dream was to make myself "wake up", I guess because I was drawn to the idea of willing myself from one reality to another(???). That was the best I could come up with at the time, and so I "woke up" and found myself sitting in an attic, with a light, some Shel Silverstein shizzz, and then totally forgot I was dreaming. Since then I've seen everything mainstream media has to offer about dreams and whatnot, and only since then have my dreams-within-dreams gotten crazier. I kinda doubt that people had dreams within dreams as much 30-40+ years ago. It's a concept that didn't really exist in the Zeitgeist, the hive mind, the collective consciousness, and so it's sort of a modern phenomenon. Maybe I'm wrong. After all, I didn't exist 40+ years ago.

[@BronyEd]

It wasn't Ryan using "Would you kindly" It was atlas aka Frank fontaine. Yeah Ryan did use it at the literal end of the game, but it's misleading to say he was controlling Jack the whole time

Don't pay attention to the headlines about The Midnight Club's Guinness World Record for jump scares. If you hate jump scares but like Ari Aster, and San Junipero, you would probably dig the show as well as all of Mike Flanagan's other stuff! The whole point of the massive amount of jump scares is a meta joke about how crappy jump scares are as a tactic in horror movies. All of his Netflix shows (haven't seen all of Flanagan's movies yet) are deeply touching metaphors that usually make me cry more than be scared.

[@D__03]

With the matter-of-fact and almost prepared way they took away his body, we can conclude this isn’t the first time someone died. You’d think the company would take stricter safety measures like really double checking all phones are off or even asking participants to leave their stuff in a locker or something. Doesn’t make sense for them to be so sloppy when death is a serious risk. Either this was for plot convenience or the company is seriously just straight-up evil? Or do you guys think this *was* the test and they just wanted to see if he’d secretly turn on his phone, hence the ‘forgotten’ page of the contract. Still doesn’t make sense they’d leave him at risk of dying after that though. Bit nonsensical but I guess we wouldn’t have an episode if it was a normal company. 😋
