But consider for a moment what implication this has for someone who actually passes away and chooses San Junipero as their eternal "Heaven". It means that if someone arrives in San Junipero full time (which implies they've died and there's no going back), if they have a bad experience in San Junipero there's no escaping the simulation. They're stuck there for eternity!

And, folks, nothing is more Hellish than being eternally stuck in place you don't want to be with someone you don't want to be with.

The suicide scene confirms San Junipero is Hell...which makes the ending song "Heaven is a Place on Earth" all the more ironic and sinister.


except Yorkie tells Kelly that they are not trapped and that they can release themselves at any time, so...

How would Yorkie know?

Yorkie just said that to convince Kelly to choose Yorkie over the spiritual unknown
