It was low key possible too which made it creepy
What happened the guy at the end? He went home but saw an illusion of his girlfriend?
The girl friend never existed. He was having dreams of a fake girl friend and fake nice house to keep him happy. Went back home, the house is a dump and the girl friend ain't there.
Just an all around subtly horrifying episode. Still kinda confused why The Coli didn't rate it higher.

To me the top quote sums up the sad twisted irony of all of it..
So they have him in a sedated state to keep him from telling. I was better off not knowing
That's why I loved San Junipero. It didn't have a grim ending. I watched seasons 1-3 in about a week so I needed some positivity
He kept dreaming about her as if he knew her. The house was there it just wasn't as clean as the vision. Maybe she dumped him and moved on.
So you're saying the dreams are illusions but what's their purpose?
It does make some sense because when he woke up the other troops' hands were twitching. It was like an REM response and it's on a schedule that's why they were all doing it simultaneously. They're feeding them dreams at a certain hour. The girl replicating over and over was a glitch caused by the light that hit him.
I'm about to finish White Christmas. What's with that clock?
Edit:
His wife just blocked him
Rob Starks' wife showed up
What is this episode about?

I knew where they were heading with San Junipero as soon as this song came on.

The purpose is to make him feel like he has something to go home to. It makes him fight harder.
shyt man, that's War Movie Trope 101. The guy with the girl, who has to get back to her. He usually ends up dying.
I'm saying she don't exist because the episode had a chance to show her, even if she looked completely different (like the house)....and she just flat out wasn't there. The only time we ever seen her, was in his dreams.

Bout to start this tonight
I think you will be pleased. This is the thread for season 3, there is (obviously) 2 seasons before it with 3 episodes each. Season 3 has 6 episodes.
Oh and there is a Christmas special called "White Christmas". So 13 episodes total.

Just finished White Christmas and I wish I hadn't
I'm ready to toss my phone, Xbox, computer, and TV in the bushes and go live in the woods
Out of all the episodes that one scared me the most. The Cookie was horrifying. When he was breaking Rob Starks' wife to get her work
. The way they did the guy's cookie after the confession
. John Hamm's L 
Best episode of the series hands down.

What is this episode about?
It was implied they were controlling their dreams when the Dr said he'd make sure he'd have a great night sleep, then in dream he actually had sex with the girl as opposed to just seeing her like his earlier dreams. That supports the idea that the girl was never real.

To me, my board!
Holy shyt that Cookie concept is fukking horrifying
But at the same time that'd be hella useful
