A solid 7.

Another installment in the digital consciousness series. A pretty cool way to tell multiple stories in a single episode, tho the plot to connect them is a stupid lynching revenge storyline. Not a fan.

Also, many parts of the stories do not actually make sense. You cannot transfer consciousness. The most you can do is to create a digital copy of your brain and then transfer it somewhere, but that would not be the original version. The original consciousness is still gone, even though it will have the full memory. It’s like cloning a git repo. the git logs are there, but it’s still a completely different copy. So, when the black guy who doesn’t wash his hand installs his wife into his brain, it’s not his wife, but a copy of his wife so he’s basically just masturbating. His actual wife gains nothing (she’s dead).

As for the consciousness of the black guy which will supposedly be broken after 15 seconds of the virtual electric chair, yes maybe that very digital copy of him would be broken and unrecoverable, but you can always have another copy of him beforehand.

I feel like they knew about this, as in white Christmas or something the idea that the digital copy is just a digital copy is echoed over and over again. I think they only treat the digital copy in this episode as real actual original version of the consciousness for plot purposes. I mean your average viewer won’t care if it makes sense, but it will make the stories much more engaging.
