I May Destroy You: 1x08 "Line Spectrum Border"

[image ID in readmore]

10 gifs from the show I May Destroy You, where Arabella is talking to several women in a support group.

1) Woman in support group: I took Bob aside, I said “Can you stop?” Barely finished speaking before he’s looking horrified, saying he’ll never talk to me again ‘cause it’s safer.

2) Woman in support group: “Lookin’ at me like I’m crazy. / Arabella: Well, Bob probably does think you’re crazy.

3) Arabella: He thinks this is all a little uncalled for, and this “personal space” thing is all going a bit too far. And he’s very confident in his view, because

4) he’s gone exploring to see what boundaries and violations these women might be banging on about, because Bob’s thorough.

5) And in these explorations, Bob found the line that separated him from everything else. Rather than crossing it, he tip-toed on it,

6) and he experienced this feeling, being on the boundary. On the border. On the line. Of being neither in one place or another.

7) And saw how in this grey area, where nothing was quite clear, no one could be clear.

8) They can’t articulate, follow our words, they couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was that we felt he did that was so wrong.

9) So yeah, Bob thinks you’re crazy. Yeah, he thinks he’s the smartest man in the room, who knoweth all the things, because Bob has observed the detail.

10) We have to start observing Bob, telling him we do see the detail. We see you, Bob.

11) And if we see you that means we are right there with you, tip-toeing in line right behind you.

12) And in that place, where rules, clarity, law, and separation cease to exist, we will show you exactly what we mean by “violation”.
