Storyline

Trivia
There is a mural at the lobby, resembling science fiction author Philip K. Dick. Dick's work echoes all of the themes (memory, identity, concensual reality) present in the series.

Goofs
The instructions state that the candidate has to ask three times to leave in order to be allowed to exit the room. Between Helly waking up on the table and the moment Mark instructing her to ask one more time to leave, she had already asked four times to be allowed to leave, in the forms of "Let me out" or "Let me out of here".

Quotes
Harmony Cobel: You know, my mother was an atheist. She used to say that there was good news and bad news about hell. The good news is hell is just the product of a morbid human imagination. The bad news is whatever humans can imagine, they can usually create.

Hmmmmmm

1st episode down.

Avoided spoilers. Love watching a new show where I have no idea where it's going.

By end of episone one I have zero clue and eagerly moving onto next episode.

Can't wait to see where this is going, hope it doesn't disappoint.
