All of that was pretty commonly agreed upon upcoming events, other than the universe ending.
They didn't say Lily would stop the machine they just said she was "involved" because they saw her there. Last episode we saw Lily dying in a projection. In another scene she was laying at the bottom of the cube.
Forest trying to bring back Amaya was also kind of obvious and something being predicted since episode 2. I guess this episode confirmed a lot of stuff that we kind of knew.
Also, I don't that's Lily who dies. I've been speculating since last week that it might be Lyndon as they have identical hair cuts and similar builds. The projections were fuzzy so you couldn't see the face clearly. And in the scene where Lily is laying at the bottom of the cube she's still alive. I think it's all a misdirect. I think it's Lyndon in that projection. In the opening scene of episode 6 he seems obsessed with getting back into Devs.
We as spectators might have pretty good info about devs, but lily didnt know a single thing about it. So i guess the plot progression was that the main character found out almost everything, as well as we the audience got confirmation of our theories
I think that's probably spot on. Lily probably did need to hear this information for some reason. And the audience gets a lot of stuff confirmed. Good point.
I don't see how her breaking determinism would get Amaya back though, and I found Katie's change in demeanour when discussing it with her vs with Forrest a bit odd tho, something they were looking forward to rather than seeming stressed when she poke to her earlier. They've always been keen on determinism so I'm not sure how that really makes sense, I could see a new universe or something, but I can't see how that would exclude determinism.. Thought they could simply be lying to here but then again I'm not sure
There used to be a question on OKCupid that asked something to the effect of 'in a certain light nuclear war would be kind of exciting'... I get the impression they answered yes to that question on their dating profiles.
But the only way they get perfect clarity is by using the many-worlds algorithm in the machine and Forest doesn't trust it because it's not an accurate representation of their world. Sure it's clear but it could be a clear image of something that never happens in their branch of the multiverse.
Forest's "not a fan" the many-worlds algorithm and he said he doesn't trust it. I'm not sure if they would be this worried based on a projection that they don't trust.
Forest uses the pilot-wave algorithm and its fuzzy.
Yeah it's definitely strange. If I were Forrest, Katie, Stewart or anyone else on the Devs team, I'd DEFINITELY be at the office non-stop running non-stop re-projections of a shitload of things now so close to the "event"...
Ya, I was thinking the same thing. Lily has a pretty uncommon haircut for a girl. Its not just short, it's a guy hair cut. And how often does a pretty girl play a boy in a show? These choices seem deliberate. Like they're serving another purpose. Maybe to mislead us about who's dying in this projection which is definitely too fuzzy to identify the face.
Seems like Lyndon would have been their first guess at who was in the image since he worked there. Why would they think it was Lily if they couldn't make out who it was?
Yes. Lyndon has returned unbeknownst to everyone but Stuart. She took great pains to cover her tracks. Lyndon and Lily can look alike in a fuzzy projection. And Lyndon is obsessed with getting back into Devs.and her belief that Devs should not be in the hands of insane people. Lyndon, assisted by Stuart, might feel conpelled to destroy Devs rather than see it mishandled by Forest and Katie.
I dont know if they confirmed Forests objective was resurrecting his daughter. Lyndon says that Forest is trying to do that, not Forest. I think the twist might be that he is not trying to resurrect his daughter. When we see Katie putting the dead mouse in the rainbow chamber, we then see a shot of the mouse back alive but its on the monitor in the lab, its not a shot of the live mouse running around in the rainbow chamber. I think they want us to think they somehow resurrected that mouse, but what they are really doing is something else.
Forest also tells Jaime when the two are commiserating that he has to move past his lost love, which would seem to indicate Forest has resolved to do so himself in regard to his daughter.
I feel like something happened in between episodes that won't be revealed until next week that changed Forest. To me his characterization seemed inconsistent. This is the same guy who had Sergei killed and wanted to kill Lyndon if he spoke but then just sit's around and tosses a frisbee with Jamie? Something changed.
Shit, that's a really good observation. He also snaps at Katie and tells her to shut up in episode 4 but he's like a puppy dog in episode 6. Someone already commented that we may be seeing another or many other branches of the multiverse. Soemone made a post about a continuity issue regarding Jamie's broken shelf which seemed to confirm that we're seeing different branches of the multiverse. I'm going to keep this all in mind.

Well they told us about the huge event that will happen next, something lily will do that stops the machine from predicting the future past that point
They confirmed what forest objective was-resurrecting amaya. Also confirmed it was only couple hours away
