The most horrifying aspect of this episode is that, regardless of when you're reading this, Cookie Joe is still trapped in his personal hell

[SutekhTheDestroyer]

The ending of this episode really just highlights a simple truth; that humans will gleefully participate in the most disgusting, heinous acts of torture and cruelty if they're convinced they're doing it 'for the right reasons'.

[typickoopakid]

Just being forced to listen to non-stop Christmas music for 1, 000, 000 years is one of the most nightmarish things I have ever heard of.

[soumyajyotisarkar]

The fact beth never admitted her cheating
and always playing victim card
is what sickens me most

[HereIsWisdom]

This particular episode is terrifying.

[mcrsclrd]

Silence is one of the most cruel things you could do to a person.

[applejax]

The ending scene where they adjust the time to 1000yrs per min is SEARED into my mind! Such a terrifying concept..

[butterccnut]

Beth's dad was horrendous. He kept Joe's letters from Beth. He was dismissive when Joe confronted him, and was clearly an enabler to Beth. During that confrontation scene, he almost killed Joe; Joe just happened to act upon it first.

Im still confused how that service Matthew used was “illegal” but its not illegal to send someone 1440000 years in a cookie

[qbanz]

What was the point of punishing the guys cookie for 1.4m years tho? The cookie didn’t do it lol

[riley]

Honestly this is the best episode. I love the cookie concept and all the other concepts that this deals with

[bluecrown]

This is by far the saddest episode I've watch from the show... The poor dude got blocked without a real explanation and beth left him wondering "what he did wrong?" when in reality she was the one who cheated and left him heartbroken... I hate to have sympathy for the dude at the end because he ultimately killed the grandpa and the child...but I always keep wondering if this would of being avoided if Beth just confessed instead of blocking him and dissapearing...

[jasss]

My phone is about to die and I don’t have my charger. I’m risking it all to watch this video

[rygdoomed]

I found it terrifying when the girl stuffed the tube down the guys throat forcing him to drink the poison hikes

[lightbulbmne]

Oh common I totally side with Joe.He might have deserved jailtime but not this hell.Someone should have told him the child isnt his, it wouldnt have led to his crime that on the side note he obviously felt incredibly remorseful of.If Beth blocked him that could have been enough of protection from his possible explosive reaction.I mean even if she felt like he could phyisicaly attack her the police in the whole world of the episode seems to be very strict.Yes he was nasty when he drunk, but he didnt seem to be an abusive person, the way he reacted to her unexpected pregnancy he seemed to be a good man essentialy.Her dad as well, could have coldly responded to him that the child isnt his and that he should keep away, and things would have played out differently.

[Dezzyyx]

If "it's just a code", then why do they want to punish it? It's a contradiction. This "code" will still experience it as real, and they know that, why else would they punish it. Also this makes me think of something, they aren't actually punishing the right one here, it's a copy of him but not actually him. He is still in the cell with his own mind. So how exactly does that affect him? As for "it's not real", well real is a very lose definition, all we know is that what we call real is what we experience, and so for a code that would be just as real to them.

[trueblade]

Beth was a horrible person!
Come on bro. Don't defend her

[jake]

Beth:Gets pregnant with what Joe assumes to be his kid
Hides it from him
Drinks alot to try and kill the kid
"Blocks" him so that he cant even talk to her or say anything(dodging any responsibility)


Joe: Throws vase at wall then sleeps on couch


Narrator: I sIdE mOrE wItH bEtH

[Claska]

Are you forgetting Beth got very drunk despite being pregnant and then blocked Joe for the rest of her life just to hide her shame that she cheated.
Mathew even decides Joe is a good person when Mathew tells his two stories.

[ledfloyd]

This wasn't a horror episode... It was terror, pure terror. The feeling of helplessness and depression after this episode still lingers with me whenever I remember this episode. The writing was brilliant, the acting was also amazing.

On another note I'm glad the American actor has come back to do another few episodes, he does a good job selling the black mirror feeling.
