re: 'Pluribus' Vince Gilligan’s new sci-fi show now streaming. Spoilers Allowed

Yea I can't imagine they are actually sending Carol's packages out. Unless it's a thing where "If we don't send these out she's going to be furious and a bunch more are going to die." But even then, they wouldn't have a ton of incentive imo to send stuff out to the 13 to let her actively work against them.

And finally another character similar to Carol that isn't just immediately trusting and accepting what is going on. I know I'd either be the guy that is banging as many girls as possible or the guy locking himself in eating dog food. No middle ground. The way all the other 11 are just totally fine with everything is annoying.

Why doesn't everybody start convulsing when the Indian lady gets angry? Every scene she's in she's screaming at Carol.

As soon as Carol walked into that room at the end I told my wife "There's going to be bodies in there." Can't wait to see what it is.

Same here, it was hilarious as it struggled being over weight.

I love the slow burn of Vince’s shows

I'm with you on that. Based on his history, Gilligan isn't going to try to stretch this out longer than it needs to be. Despite not too much happening after the first two episodes, the show has kept me captivated.

It seems like a lot of people are souring on the show. If this were on Netflix, I'd be worried about falling viewership being a problem. With it being on Apple, I suspect that they'll let Gilligan wrap things up no matter what the viewership looks like, but they may force him to cut it down to 3 seasons instead of the expected 4.

Also, after the first 2 episodes, I hypothesized that animals might be part of the hive. This episode definitely shot that one down.

It’s obviously people under the tarp. But that might be too on the nose. Maybe they’re growing alien bodies? And feeding them dog food?

I’m not sure. I noticed when she first looked under the tarp, there was no instant reaction like she saw bodies. It was like it took her a minute to realize what she was looking at. Who knows what that is. Maybe it was body parts or something.

I had wondered if it was too soon for it to be humans and be really meaningful towards Carol proving bad intentions behind the hive and virus. If human bodies (or maybe animals killed by the virus) it may eventually mean more about what is actually happening as more is independently discovered over the series, but I have a feeling it’s going to be more shock initially and then have it partially explained away as part of their efficiency of resources and not killing.

They took the bodies of those who died with the joining and with Carol’s outbursts somewhere, and besides Carol’s girlfriend or wife we have not seen them burying or burning those bodies. If they will not kill they still might freeze and use the bodies somehow as part of the nutrients in their “milk”.

My guess is it's human bones.

Or a big table of smooshed up brains?

PH level of the human brain is 7.1-7.2. It would explain why she’s not immediately realizing what she’s looking at. It would take me a minute to go from frozen vegetables to brain jelly.

My theory is they have to ingest a constant dose of virus or they start to recover so the 'milk' is key to getting more people out from under the spell.

There was a dog barking in the distance in one of the scenes.

yes there’s been a lot of foreshadowing. I need to go back now and watch the first episodes again
