God it would've been so funny if at the end they made eye contact, smiled, and then one of them looks back at their phone and swipes left


I’m just imagining the loud cackle you’d let out if this happened. Much like our cackling during Happy Death Day.

Wow absolutely insane episode
This is Black Mirror at it's finest
Top tier episode
I'm not even mad that it was a happy ending, it would have been heartbreaking if they didn't end up together
Really well done in every depart

Boc is wrong, I think they nailed the chemistry. That's just instantly clicking with someone. I think they really nailed what love is/what digging someone is like. A lot of other shows/movies have overblown cliches of over the top moments but this really focused on it through the small moments without putting it in your face

Watched this episode earlier, really liked it until the gf starting crying near the end and has been annoyingly clingy with me ever since.

I liked the episode, but was expecting a lot more when quite a few of you rated it so high.

It was still a good episode though, but I never cried. I felt their connection. The only thing I could think of was distance makes the heart grow fonder. I just felt like the fact they weren't "allowed" to go outside of the rules set by the system, they just had a longing to get back to each other after all those short/bad exchanges with other people. It made them desire each other that much more.

I also felt it when he couldn't help but look and then seeing his reactions as the timer went lower and lower. Great scene. And then when he said he liked her and she said "and that wasn't enough". That was a smack of reality.

Good episode for sure. Loved how it came together even if the end was kind of cheesy.

Neat concept, I didn't like the execution very well, it was a little... generic? I dunno. but it was still an enjoyable episode. Nothing mind-blowing, that's for sure. LOVED the soundtrack though, that was definitely the most note-worthy part of the episode for me.

It was a cute episode I guess... I definitely felt they had a connection in the first scene so it was nice that they got a happy ending.

I was expecting more as well but it is what it is

Episode was GOOD. Sigur Ros on the soundtrack was GOOD. Loved the scene with the girl telling her coach unit to "count to four".
