this scene is used to show what would've happened if they did send up the panna cotta instead of the girl. It shows how disconnected the administration is from the people living in the hole

[pen]

My interpretation is that they did send the message, The girl was never there and Baharat was dead when they got to 333. And the panna cotta remained untouched that's why in this scene the Chefs are confuse

[negawattperhour]

to sum up
-baharut is ded when he arrives in floor 333
-goreng see everyones images as hallucinations (miharu, trimagasi, baharut and the girl)
-the true message is the Panna Cotta
-ppl on floor 0 misinterpreted the message as being returned because of the hair
-goreng died trying

[austinricky]

The protagonist was right. His theory would have worked. So as like Goreng said, it had to be an absolutely unhampered dish. It basically was, but like all institutions that care deeply about the fine print, and care deeply about keeping the institution running at all costs, deliberated (it looks like a deliberation in this scene) that it would not satisfy the terms to end the experiment.

[Asterics.]

1) There were no clear ending because it's a portray of society and it's continuous.
2) The level shuffle is about privileges, you can't choose in which level you wake up, same like which country and which family you'll be borned.
(I found that on reddit)

It's said each prisoner picks their preferred food and the food is then prepared for the platform
Whether they get to eat it or not is another story
What if the panna cotta is what the girl ordered

[STBill]

The prison is a metaphor for our society. Those on the top gorge themselves and leave scraps for those at the bottom. Even if the places are reversed nothing changes because it is in our nature to be greedy and care little for those we consider to be beneath us.

Firstly, there was no girl on level 333 and its impossible for her to survive in the hole. It was all the hallucination and the only thing that was sent back to level zero was the panna cotta. The point we're missing here is that the ones on the top beleive that the hole is for the betterment of these individuals, the cooking staff knows about all the bullshit that's happening in there, however, the boss who scolds the chefs thinks that the guys in the hole didn't eat that one dish because it had a hair in it. Which is the point of the whole movie that the message can only work in downstream and not in an upstream.

[victorjozek]

I was surprised to realise after a second watch that this scene was repurposed in the middle of the movie to briefly express the kitchen's strict policies.

[kinglou]

The hole and people who run it are "the system". this scene tells a story. The Dessert was the message for all the chaos that the people had to deal with to get it to them. And how does "the system " take the message? They look past the real problem to see an irrelevant problem and make it about the irrelevant problem so that they dont have to deal with the real one. The black guy represents the black community constantly trying to get to the top only to get shitted on. The breast cancer girl used to work for the system and trusted it only to find out that the system lied to her and because of that she offed herself realizing her reality that the system feed her was false. The old guy was representing the older generation comfortable where they are. And not having the energy to do anything about the wrong in the system even tho they see it everyday and know it well. Same people who say that's life but doesn't do anything about it.

[goombalik]

My prediction is that Miharu chose her one item as her child and they got separated.

[TheIronMaidenFan]

At first glance (10 minutes or so) I thought the supervisor, all in white, meticulous and "perfect" was god handing down the resources we need to survive (one dish per person) and then us humans screwing up by taking more than we need etc., but as the movie progresses the "Administration" looks much more like a government. Lol when You enter "the system" hoping for something in return and end up doing unspeakable things just to survive.

[danielfadavi]

the panna cotta isn't even arranged in the same way. There extra thingies on the side. if it was actually the same one, why would they add it in? I think the purpose of the scene is to show the sickening amount of effort that goes into preparing the food.

[dm]

So basically it's either 1. This is all real and it's told form the perspective of Goreng, and the hallucinations and holes in the plot are attributed to him. But not the experiment, platform or events.
2. This movie is actually depicting Hell. Everybody here is someone who has died, and their punishment is to forever be trapped continually cycling each-other out in an endless eternity. Their very human nature being the thing to perpetually torment them. 333 floors, 666 people, endless bottom. Falling forever.

[ihavenoidea]

My theory is that Miharu (the mother) was pregnant and gave birth in the hole (because the woman from the administration said that there were no children allowed, so the child couldn't possibly get these herself) and hid her daughter in level 333 so that no one would find out its her child, but at some point the girl died (especially since we see Miharu, her mother, die herself - so maybe it's a metaphor for her child dying at some point as well, and her mother failing to protect her), the protagonist and the other guy arrived to lvl 333 but the protagonist due to mental/physical damage remembered Miharu and hallucinated that her child was there and ate the Pana cotta, when in reality the Pana cotta was left untouched and arrived to level 0 and was sent back to the kitchen, so the cooks, oblivious to what's really happening in the hole, thought that the Pana cotta wasn't eaten because there was hair in it (we see that in the opening scene of the movie) and people were disgusted by it, when in reality people died to deliver the "message" which the administration and kitchen didn't understand

Other thing is that supposedly the kitchen staff and some of the administration (such as the lady who worked there but chose to move to the hole later and ended her life, which would indicate that only some of the administration is involved) doesn't know that there are people suffering? Also someone has to move all those people once a month to different floors (maybe it's automatic and some kind technology is used, but someone still has to be responsible for all that and design it, so they must know)? So maybe there are some higher-ups who know about the food/violence problem and choose to not tell other "staff" members to manipulate them?

This scene shows that if they had kept the dish as the message this would be the reaction from floor 0, not much would change .. The main guy realised that the girl is a Better message because floor 0 employees don’t know exactly what goes on in there and think it is 16+ of age . The reason why the girl is still alive at 333 is because every time her mother would kill every one below her until she got there for the rest of month, where she rations the food because floor 333 does not change temperature if you keep food there, only part I don’t get is why the girl is always at 333

[Laufield]

This food better than prison’s food 😂😂😂

[touleevang]

I think miharu was hiding her daughter on floor 333 and was occasionally riding the platform down to feed her.

[chupkar]

This is one of the best movies ever I am obsessed with it but this isn't one of the alternate endings, it's part of the movie. I would've preferred it if you cut up scenes in the movie.
