was becoming a little too straight forward and suspenseful sans its regular twist from the mind of Elliot Alderson, well then tonight’s two-hour series finale and last weekend’s penultimate episode “eXit” popped the show’s arm back in its noirish socket complete with many Elliot doppelgangers.
But while visiting Angela’s parents, their phone rings and it’s Elliot’s alter ego: the white-collar side. WTF is going on? Elliot heads back to his apartment and learns that the guy has decorated it in a neat and posh way, something the Elliot we know would never do. Hacking into the guy’s computer, Elliot finds sketches of himself and Darlene among other Mr. Robot paraphernalia.
Krista deconstructs Elliot’s dissociative identity disorder and how he created different versions of Elliot, i.e. the one who jumped out the window, the alter ego Mr. Robot to replace his abusive dad, etc. More sides of Elliot he created: There was the abusive mom, and his understanding family to get him through painful times. The crusading hacker Elliot who takes down evil in the world is “is only part of you” she says. It’s the only grounded explanation for all the zig-zags we’ve been through.
Does someone not pay attention remember when Elliot said when do you take off a mask when it stops being a mask ,well Elliot took his off he let go of the pain and hate , he saved the world, and he now has to heal ,so he let the alter egos go so he could be one ,and face society
I think the writer of this article needs to follow roundhoward and read his article on THR if he really is asking “what just happened to Elliot?”. Of course, paying closer attention when watching shows you write about is also a good option.
Did the writer of this article actually pay attention...or is he just a little thick?
The ending actually made perfect sense & the series as a whole is a profound, cohesive story about Elliot’s struggle with DID. Sam Esmail is a genius & Rami, Christian, Carly, et al were phenomenal. MrRobot
I refuse to believe anyone actually watched the finale, as well as the rest of the show, and came to this conclusion. Yikes
This is such a poorly written article and very poorly reviewed critique. It’s almost like the writer had never seen the show up until now and is just making shit up to hit a deadline.
Certainly not what the hack you paid said in this article.
What just happened to Elliot? He began the process of reintegrating his alternate selves into a singular Elliot and, because of this, real healing.
This explanation isn't right. The author missed a lot of detail, skipped over the nature of Elliot's DID, and ultimately drew the wrong conclusion about the character's fate.
