What is real?

This episode is mind-boggling in my first watch.

-Well, in a nutshell, it’s just another proxy named “Swan” messing up with Vince’s mind on their conquest back to Romdeau,

-Swan convinced Vince that he was just an alter created by Re-L and needs to disappear since he was affecting her mind, and the only way to do it is to kill Re-l in an alternate reality.

Swan would like to see Vince’s desires in life, she was maybe expecting more like a dark, tormented, murderous vision just as Proxy One designed him, but it was the other way around.. Vince’s desires shows a more humanly side instead, A green grassy field and a healthy blue sky, He’s a respected Bureau Chief on top of his game, having Re-L as his fianćee, a happy life a normal human being would wish for.

So Swan wasn’t please with these as a Proxy,

Swan’s main plan is to inject the mind set to kill Re-L in real life. Swan is kinda vague representation of proxy one and female Vincent (because she look like him a lot esp his Immigrant days in Romdeau— her hairstyle).

At the end, Vincent knew that everything is an illusion. He will protect Re-L and will face his real identity back to the maze dome city.

What i like about this EP is the transition of Vince and Re-L on the same screen time. Also the freakin lapses that gave me headache tho, it’s like a conundrum while i was figuring out what the hell i was watching. But i really enjoyed it. 😂😅👍
