Spoilers :
I really liked the plot twist.
Let's be honest, the fact that Mert and Artyom fall for Finn in one look when he sees himself as a ball and chain with no self-confidence was pretty miraculous. It was just too good to be true.
Yet I honestly thought they were being sincere, that the script was just purely about sex and that we shouldn't question it.
So yeah, really liked that twist. It gives a much more complex side to the two dogs. I'd be curious to know how they knew Finn was the possessor of the artefact before Finn even realised.
Obviously, their betrayal hurts but strangely, I feel even more hurt by Apple. Unlike the other two, Apple is sincere in the desire he shared with Finn. I've just realised that it was he who prevented Maria from explaining to us that Mert and Arytom were playing a role.
Apple considers Finn to be the chosen one and doesn't bother to give him the slightest warning. OK, Apple needed them for the sake of his oh-so-important mission, but I think that's a pretty big betrayal on his part. He could have just told him not to get too attached to them so quickly.
Still, from Finn's point of view, I clearly prefer him to the other two. At least he's not a total hypocrite and his intentions seem more laudable than those of the two dogs.
In brief, I won't forget the magical moment spent on the zip line with Khaled. A body like that didn't deserve such a tragic end! What sadness! His spirit seemed to be able to be repaired, too!
Also, probably an unpopular opinion but I love Riley. After all, if there's one person you can trust after this update, it's her. She's brilliant!
I have a question about Arytom's ethics. He says he only kills people who disturb the law and order. Yet it was he who asked Holger to look after the lifeguard who hadn't asked for anything. So is the lifeguard dead or just knocked out?
I'm also a bit curious to know whether Hunter is really dead or not.
In any case, it's pretty daring to have a good proportion of the guys in the game be either assholes or psychopaths in a gay game.
Very curious how Finn will act now that he knows the truth. Sounds promising.
