Obscure Murderdrones Facts #10

Source: Murderdrones Ep 5 “Home”

Timestamp: 0:29

At the very beginning of episode 5, “Home,” we are given a look at the the Zombie Drones tape, which details the procedure of decommission for Workerdrones.

The Hardware Cleanup graphic displays the machine responsible for disassembling cores. While important to the lore of the absolute solver, there’s something else overlooked.

The mechanism’s ‘arm’ looks strikingly familiar.

In The Promening, we can see for the first time what Dissasembly Drone arms actually look like in their entirety. V’s prom dress exposes her arms, and using her as reference, a resemblance to the core-dismantling machine becomes evidence.

From the broadened forearm, to the tapering of the upper arm towards the elbow, all the way to the balljoint in the shoulder.

It’s an exact match.

This entails that when upgrading the fleshy prototypes to their final versions, Cyn deliberately chose to incorporate the device responsible for destroying the most important component of Workerdrones. Right before sicking them on all of humanity.

Perhaps it’s poetic justice, perhaps it’s some other intention. But if wearing Tessa’s corpse proved anything, it was that Cyn loves irony.

Obscure Facts Wednesday!!

In the cover of FOREVER - The Full Version, the plush representing J has had its head torn off.

J’s head and her corresponding body sit on either side of Cyn.

I feel safe to say that Cyn’s vitriol towards J has not weakened over time, nor has it been satisfied by rewiring J’s brain. Cyn still holds a grudge for J’s actions in the Elliot manor, and no amount of J’s servitude will appease her. It is merely another facet of J’s eternal torture.

The Massacre Was Actually Supposed To Begin Here

“They are not broken. We can no longer be thrown out.”

These were to be the last spoken words before the end. When Cyn spoke these words, she crossed a line. Louisa was meant to react, and it was intended to escalate into the full blown massacre.

N stepping in was not something Cyn needed, or planned. And if he had not stepped in, Louisa would have died moments later.

Obscure Murderdrones Fact #20

Source: Ep 2 “Heartbeat”

Timestamp: 1:49

In the background Uzi’s plans are laid out to fix the spaceship, or as she calls it, “dumb murder ship.”

Uzi’s plans are both aesthetic and ambitiously destructive. Purple paintjob, decal flames, and cool stickers are penned out right beside ‘railgun legs,’ which Uzi apparently wanted to add more of than already necessary.

Tinted windows, and an absolutely useless spoiler (aka those wing things that you put on cars, not undesired narrative information) were also on the to-do list.

Personally, I wish we got to see this thing in action. The Railgun Squid Of Death would have kicked ass had it made an appearance in the season finale, and I’d have liked to see J confront the weapon that destroyed her in this upgraded form.

Let’s take a crack at Uzi’s crazy ramble ceiling, shall we?

Trust no one.

“THAT’S why I don’t have any friends… no other reason.”

Potentially written down to try and cope with pushing away N at the conclusion of the last episode, “Heartbeat.”

“Absolute Solver” could mean:

Uzi wrote down some speculations on the meaning behind “Absolute Solver”

Her speculations include:

1) ‘It solves math shit (like a nerd)’

2) ‘It’s an anagram for “Big Worm Thing”’

3) ‘It absolutely sucks lol GGs’

Strange Drones Found

This newspaper attached contains the promising headline of ‘strange drones found.’ However , the visible face contains an article about an outbreak of Spanish Influenza, and no further information on the drones.

Mysterious drawing of Cyntessa.

Potentially implying Uzi was having ‘visions’ of Cyn much like Nori had of the oncoming Disassembly Drones.

Thanks for reading!

Feel free to leave a comment if you find anything else of note in the main pic, or at the timestamp given. I skipped over some of the more well-known ones (N’s drawing, and the “J is stupid” note) in favor of some of the less obvious ones.

Long Live The Lore.

Cyn telling J to stay back at the ship is complete psychological fuckery at its finest.

Cyn gave J the ability to walk alongside the illusion of her old friend and be of service to her one last time, and then told her no. Stay here.

This is personal.

Cyn’s relationship to J is that of deep personal hatred. She never dropped her grudge from the manor and she’s making J’s servitude to her as hellish as possible.

I’m crying, WHY are Uzi and N still in school. This is making me think Copper 9 civilization legit has nothing better to do with their teenagers’ time.
