If you want to think about it, the lore that this series is establishing is a very dark twisted interesting one. In each of episodes of this nature, Rowan seems like the normal one. The one who reflects us, our intuition, and what should and shouldn’t be possible. He knows all the people he’s talking to. He’s clearly known them for a long time, and they know Rowan too. But in each scenario, Rowan learns what he thought was true of the world he’s in is wrong. He can’t pick up and move a backpack. He can’t hold more than one item. He can’t get stuck at a big hill. This is the story of Rowan, a man who woke up one day, and suddenly everything around him has changed. This is the story of a man whose very reality is contradicted in every one of these videos. Neat, great job guys! Looking forward to the next one!
