I now officially have no idea what’s going on. The logic is getting a little stretched, tho.
Oh yeah…I thought it was obvious that we’re supposed to believe they’re eating the bodies. It was telegraphed by the canines trying to dig up the corpse (provided animals have a basic link to Pluribus).
I assumed the “something” she saw was a body…maybe even one she recognized, considering the room was full of bodies lol.
I’m more at the stage “where are we going with this?”…doesn’t seem like anywhere. Basic sci fi tropes, so far…even if extremely well executed. It bothers me that she didn’t just ask what the liquid was for…seems like a pretty huge plot convenience to delay exposition.
Just ask in a voicemail. They already know she knows about it and is trying to figure it out…they’d either answer or they wouldn’t.
Like…so much was made from a non-answer before…so she’d care at least how they answered the question, even if they didn’t answer it directly. Of they’d give her a nuke…maybe they’d give her the recipe for the olive oil. Or she’d get ghosted…and be no further behind.
Its not ruining the show or anything…it’s just a Jenga piece pulled out. Know what I mean?

Ask who? The hive are currently ghosting her. In previous episodes she just thought it was some generic drink.

Well she might during the next episode. She’s only just discovered it.
