The Big Payback - S3E4


The opening scene in the coffee shop. Did that mean anything to the actual episode?

I don't know if it's meant to show his privilege because he's able to be carefree and oblivious to what's happening around him. Not sure what's supposed to be going on with the black customer but he's sent to the back of the line for some reason. Then we find out the main character just stole something and has no worries about it.

Either way I think it's the worst episode of the series. It's like a really shitty version of Black Mirror. The beginning builds up the tension well but then after the reveal of what's happening the world they are supposed to be living in is too over the top to be effective.
