I was bored, so I decided to map out Monoceros's treehouse.

"How long can you keep the show going?"

The 8 show was such a good show!! People who say it's all just gore don't get the point of the show or just refuses to acknowledge what the show brutally represents. It's a show that depicts just how vulnerable human nature is when it comes to being exposed to the darkest sides of a hyper-capitalist society. How we are all part of the same social cancer that slowly eats away our entire being. Maybe the last two episodes may have been "lackluster" compared to the other episodes but overall, I still enjoyed the show. For a show with only eight episodes, I appreciate the pacing and storytelling. The visuals of the set is beautiful, but also haunting with all the cameras watching. The intro changed from each episode and it was an intro i'd never choose to skip.

"There's more money to be had." Was a motto everyone in the show had in mind, despite the differences in their class, or how they acted it out. If it feels unfair, it's because it's supposed to be. It's an integral part of human nature to always think of yourself first. No matter how much of a saint you think you are, when faced with danger, in the end you'll be scared for your own skin. It's selfish and cruel. The top floor stay on top because they have the power to stay on top. The bottom floor stay on the bottom because they aren't given any power to even go up.

The show does a good job with it's shtick, where when more time is added to the clock, we the viewers get to watch another episode. We represent the hosts, the ones who get entertainment.

There were several moments where they could've ended the show after they revolted against the upper floors but they didn't. They decided to stay until there was no time left on the clock. They hadn't wanted more time, but they did want to use the remaining time until they left. In the end they decided to milk every hour and minute to get their every penny worth. Everything all started because of greed, and ended with greed. But guess what? The hosts weren't ready to end the show on that note. That's why more time was added to the show. It was only in an act of desperation in the last episode did they think to buy using the time, but that had only amused the hosts. The show couldn't have end here, you have to finish it. Give us a show! A proper truman goodbye, was probably what the hosts wanted. The cameras being destroyed and thus triggering the "The End", effectively finishing the show.

1st floor (the 8 show) - SPOILERS

this is just a few scattered thoughts. THERE ARE SPOILERS.

SPOILER ALERT

SPOILERS

THERE ARE SPOILERS

I was rewatching his ________ and I realised he didn't deserve that at all. He had control of everyone in the end. All the weapons were at his disposal. They were tied up and he could've started cutting their body parts or done something cruel that the higher floors like 8 probably would've considered, to be entertaining. But he only used himself as the source of entertainment. No one was a tool.

I know that he was absolutely horrendous before to the higher floors to extend the time and he definitely was cunning in not telling them about the room change, but can you blame him? They were all treated like absolute shit and were used as tools by the higher ups so it felt justified to do the same. That's where my dilemma comes in because although in the end he's his own tool, when he copies the higher ups he makes the others , tools.

Then I realised that his death might symbolise the hypocrisy of society. The 8th floor tortured every single one of them and her end was just getting arrested. He tried to regain some control but his actions ended in his death. The inequality of punishment because of the social hierarchy built in that room and outside, might be being highlighted.

Then moving back to how he was selfless in the end in terms of getting more time, it's a majority point of view that those with the least contribute the most right? Like you'll always hear stuff like stray animals get fed by the poor people while for the rich, hunger is something they don't understand. And I absolutely agree many people do contribute who are well off but the very fact that even with such little for themselves, they contribute and share the food they may have, might show how even with the least money he was able to be selfless and just use himself.

Yeah I guess the difference is he may have been selfish in wanting time but in the end everyone was going to get more money with his actions. And no one else was going to get hurt.

Im not exactly sure what to make out of the fact that he didn't tell anyone about the room change until desperation hit. I guess it shows no matter what a nice person you are, if you know knowledge of something will create conflict you are going to keep it to yourself. Sure its super devious but anyone could've asked about it. And also let's just say he did tell everyone about it. Everyone would just be wasting their money trying to buy each others rooms and realising how long they were expected to stay.

Along that idea, not so much about 1st floor but more on the whole show, the fact that fake is real within the show or real is fake, the whole scenario of the receipt was such an illusion. He never specifies how much it is to buy the 8th floor, and the game allows him to stay delusional because of the absurdity of switching room prices. Then the no pockets and the whole set up downstairs also highlights how everything is an illusion.

This whole thing is one big ramble. Share your thoughts please because his character is still so so intriguing. All of them are. So I'd love to know more thoughst and other interpretations
