The reason why people change is not because they have been away for too long or too far, but because they have forgotten why they set out in the first place! The so-called butchering knife of the years is nothing but a mirror in front of it, and people who are accustomed to examining themselves with the naked eye have already closed their minds. Time has blurred and distorted the mirror until the eyes can no longer see themselves. As always, the anxiety of the "perfect" mirror image forces people to constantly look for various absurd excuses to appease everything. When the lie is repeated three times, the "truth" will emerge, pushing people to continue their efforts to deceive the world and themselves. At the same time, they had to live in an unreal life tormented. This episode has two parallel lines, different stories, the same redemption: 1) The road of redemption and self-redemption opened by Momma Mo for her childhood faults. On the surface, Mo's mother became a perverse character due to the lack of father's love in her childhood. Later, because she was jealous of her playmate Tommy's perfect family life, she threw her into a virtual "nursery" created by Rick for her, so Tommy became jealous. He became a missing person, and Tommy's father was falsely rumored to be a cannibal. Several years later, when he was about to be executed, the great sting was that Tommy had turned into a complete cannibal due to his survival instinct. . In the process of finding excuses and escaping from herself, Mom Mo finally found her true self. As Rick said: In fact, you and I have always been such people. Although I can replace you by cloning and give you a new life, no matter what you choose, you still need to face the reality and go through the period that belongs to you. The way you should go. 2) Dad Mo, who was in a period of emotional loss, deliberately created a spare tire incident to attract the attention of Mom Mo. In the process of getting along with an alien girlfriend who lives completely different frequencies, Dad Mo messed up everything again! Facing the constant doubts of the two children, Mo's father also embarked on the road of self-redemption. The most ironic thing is: Dad Mo, who thinks he is looking for a spare tire, is actually just a spare tire for her. The alien woman who is so disappointed in human nature finally perfectly interprets the inferiority of human nature. In this episode, not only excuses are flying all over the sky, but poisonous chicken soup is overflowing: The content after "I think..." is often the most error-prone part. You do not know me. Actually we have always been the same. no matter how you choose, Eventually you're all done. I am doing this for you! Shouldn't stumped people eat people? Custody is the idea of ​​adults who are afraid of being abandoned. Someone came down from the sky to save you from the siege, and you should stop comparing the real reason. What is my value orientation? A perverse and domineering person is a perfect match for a cowardly and incompetent partner. ......
