Welp.. very late this week. Had been busy with exams, still am, but I have a little reprieve from studying now so I'm gonna try to quickly put my thoughts on the episode here. Probably not gonna be too long of a thread. https://twitter.com/MezuEko/status/1383655260904771596

The episode starts with the church scene from EP1 so once again, this is a reminder that things Matsumoto says don't add up with what we (the audience) know about the future he supposedly came from and that Saeki personally knows Estella

A counterargument to my theory is..
..that the shot of alternate Space Hotel that we saw in the first episode is just the alternate timeline we left behind, which might explain the difference in colour of dress in one of the AI in the shot. But that would still not explain how the doctor is apparently not too

.. old after 80 years from EP5's present time.
If I'm calculating this right:
* EP1 & 2 took place in 2056
* EP3 & 4 were 15 years after - 2071
* EP5 is 5 years after - so 2076
There are still 80 years left until we reach the end of "Project Singularity"
So unless they..

..figured out immortality or preserving youth to an exceptional degree in the future, I dont think what we saw in EP1's opening sequence is 100 years into the future. Saeki would probably be nearly 100 years old if it was

Speaking of the Arayashiki tower, I just found out about what it's a refrencing
What the tower represents is AI, or more specifically #Vivy's journey towards achieving true sentience, where she would make use of all her experiences to make a final choice.

What's interesting to me here is that #Vivy's AI mark glows in blue when she answers Saeki's question. I think the blue represents one of two things:
*Honesty
*Connection and understanding
In many other cases we've seen AI's mark glow with blue. Sometimes when expressing their..
*Honesty
*Connection and understanding
In many other cases we've seen AI's mark glow with blue. Sometimes when expressing their..
.. true self, and sometimes when they're connecting with each other. So this might've been a point of connection between #Vivy and Saeki as the latter loves AI and wishes to help alleviate their suffering.
Mother Computer seems to be Grace's twin, and since Grace is a "sister", similar to Beth and Estella, both Grace and Mother Computer are based on #Vivy's base program, which is probably why she liked #Vivy's "Sing My Pleasure" as she's also based on a singing AI blueprint.
So uhhhhh.. more pain added to this scene as similar to #Vivy, Mother Computer probably wants to "make everyone smile" in her own way. She liked Sing My Pleasure's lyrics which emphasize protecting everyone's smiles.
some more of the flashing images that #Vivy saw once she connecting whatever Saeki created to M.
I wonder if he's put his own feelings and memories into this program or if he's copied some of Grace's into it.

So.. is anyone else thinking what I'm thinking?

AI in the future were weaponized by someone through whatever virus Saeki developed. Whether it's Toak or Saeki in an attempt to revert some of their evolution is unclear but I think this is the method.

I think Saeki is attempting to preserve the Metal Float, and maybe saving Mother Computer from what seems to be a cruel fate
In his eyes, he likely thinks she's enslaved without much freedom compared to his wife. Her mission probably prevents her from defending the island.

So he chose to override the island control to attack Toak.
I'm also thinking another similarity between the twins in this episode and the previous episode is that Mother Computer is a copy of Grace's base personality. Both started families; Grace by marrying, and Mother..

..Computer by well... raising all those AI on the island. Hence the "Mother" in her name and M imprinting on her desire to build a children's playroom.

Oh and umm... one of the twins' prospects for survival are not looking too well if this EP1 frame is anything to go by :(
.. unless Matsumoto's gonna repair her as he did with #Vivy

Oh and I wanted to mention this somewhere but couldn't fit it in any of the previous tweets. Mother Computer isn't infected like the other AI on the Island (AI mark seems fine 
), which suggests Saeki doesn't want to hurt her. He's purposefully isolating her from other AI.

As always thanks 4 reading!
Unsure if I'll add anything to this between now and when I watch EP6 but I wanted to at least put my thoughts out there
If theres any takeaway to be had from this is that if I say it'll be short, I'll end up writing 10x more than I thought I would
