"Mr. Robot" Press Room: 6 Big Reveals1 of 6
Elliot faces tough consequences.
Elliot has started this season more isolated than ever. After destroying the bulk of the world's electronic economic infrastructure, he's gone into hiding and is more paranoid than ever. According to Rami Malek, his life is not going to get easier any time soon. He explains, "We deal with the fallout quite a bit. Obviously you can already see that he’s conflicted and feels very guilty about what’s happened with Gideon, and there’s more to come from him. The special thing about this show is we don’t live in this fairytale land where you can just destroy the world’s economy and everything is going to be better because of it ... There’s a big question: At what cost would you like to affect your society and the world you live in? What are the repercussions of that? What that would be for Elliot remains to be seen, but I doubt that it’s going to be pleasant."
