Season 3 episode 5 is the best so far

Brush to the fifth episode, it really looks better. The writers are very creative. In my eyes, this story is not about technology or the future, but the most stark revelation of the truth of war, a warning to today and the future. Any war launched by anyone in any name is bound to be a form of mind control. The so-called national survival of the fittest propaganda is a grand brainwashing. Every person who holds a blade on the battlefield will become a pawn. What's interesting is that the "obstacle system" in the play is called mass (the public, the rabble), how ironic.

Truck Driver: Eight years ago, Tom, my husband, got cancer. It was pancreatic, a real bitch. The symptoms showed up late.
Lacie: I'm so sorry.
Truck Driver: You don't know me, so you're not really sorry. You're just mainly awkward 'cause I have sprung some cancer talk at you.
