Premiered on Wednesday. Apparently the pilot's been online for a month, has all kind of critical acclaim, to the point that they gave it a second season before the pilot even aired. All I can say is go watch it if you haven't. It's pretty badass.

Full ep at the link or on demand

The scene with Tyrell and Mr. Robot talking and the "I know your secret" thing is what cements for me that it's his real father and not a mental manifestation.

The only thing in the series that bugs me is episode 3 or 4 where after having sex with that guy Tyrell did something to his phone and left. I don't recall that being carried over into anything else--what'd he plant that he went to that much trouble for? So either I'm missing something or they haven't touched it since.

Could it possibly have been his mother who died? He seems to have built mental walks around tragic events, obviously skewing his sense of reality.

Not true. Tyler Durden interacted with others as a figment of Norton's imagination. What he thought he experienced as a third party watching Durden though, was actually him the whole time.

That is what I am thinking. All those people when they interact with anyone else is actually himself.

I was just showing that the story line is still alive. I actually think that either his mom died, or his dad fakes his death or something. Not sure. I feel like Christian Slayer exists for some reason.

Elliot was not a 3rd party in the SUV with the meeting between Mr. Robot and Tyrell. There have been multiple scenes involving Mr. Robot Elliotless these last 2 episodes.

That could be Elliot embodying Mr. Robot, as that personality has taken over to speak in Elliot's place.

Unlikely. What would Elliot's "secret" be?

multiple things, that he'll tell Elliot that he isn't truly self aware and give him a clinically certified psych eval he has no recollection about this if they reveal that he was in a psychiatric hospital for a while, that he'll rat out Elliot as the "Inside Man", Or the Mr. Robot personality is also a part of the "Dark Army" or She-Male wasn't White Rose Mr. Robot/Elliot is.

The first thing isn't a secret. All safe is already onto Elliot. And the Dark Army is Darlene's side of the equation. So is Darlene not real now too?

Mr. Robot/Elliot is playing Darlene too.

The whole idea is what is "real" Mr. Robot said that money is just virtual data when the world went off the gold standard.

Okay, if Mr. Robot is real then how do you justify him waiting at his work station in corporate building without credentials and anyone asking who he is or during Hispanic gangster raid of Elliot's apartment with waiting at the stairwell.

He's a hacker. I've been behind closed doors without credentials visiting family members. No one asks questions.

He could have easily been let in by simply saying that... Wait for it... "I'm Elliot's father."

Elliot would have to verify that with someone, and the stairwell incident?
