The Magnus Protocol Episode 17 glitches

Sam: "I said it's fine." In response to Celia's apologies for missing their date.

Celia: "I did try to get back in time, but there weren't any trains, and I didn't have any signal." Not a full glitch, but a very faint static over the audio.

Celia: "You're okay. It's okay." To herself.

Yall ever get therapy so bad that you're transported to an alternate dimension to kill your parallel identity and live his fixed life instead?

ok whats yalls take on cecilia? obv something with interdimensions, but assumingly not replacing a double bcus she says 'its not quite the same/useful'. she has a kid, we dont know if its biological or adopted, just that a father is out of the picture. for some reason, she visited oxford, the same place of the statement and where jon and georgie went to college, and was reluctant to share it with sam whom shes relatively close to.

the actual institute doesnt exist nymore, but from what i ynderstand the 'outreach' centers or whatever arent the same, so they could very well still exist. this doesnt even get into the opening lines of the statement about a status as a catalyst, tho cecilia didn't seem interested in that aspect, purely the clone thing. the fears seemingly work a bit differently in tmp, at least for now, so the eyepocalypse ritual may not be the same (tho thats what 'catalyst' reminded me of, and 'agent' reminds me of avatar), but im willing to bet its the same overall concept of bringing them all in.

patient implies ppl seeking help, specifically for something supernatural in regards to the institute. yet theres obv something behind the scenes bcus the whole status thing denotes smnth, we just dont know what, or how ppl r evaluated. personally, i think that gerry will come back into play, similar to tma introducing key players early on and expanding later, especially in regards to what those statuses mean. we have another mention of a jmj error, specifically to alice after she witnessed a statement giver irl. i cant think of nyothers who have actlly gotten a jmj in the podcast that we have explicitly seen. colin is still NA tho cecilia is saying shes seen him around, so hes either sneaking in or shes lying for some reason.

we also dont have nything on the bonzo front, which is a bit worrying considering that gwen 'already knows' whose name was in the envelope. we thought maybe alice, but idk bcus shes been alone w/o defense like at the bar where bonzo couldve gotten her. so its either someone gwen knows that we havent met yet or another basement dweller. i dont think its cecilia given that we still dont know much about her and she seems very plot relevant. idk man

I'm so oblivious, I thought The Magnus Protocol episode 17, "Saved Copy," was like a Dorian Gray thing. I thought Rich!Darrien was somehow making human copies of himself to take on all his miseries and pains, a la the painting in the novel, and he was going to show Narrator!Darrien how to do it and have him make a copy...

I just glossed over Narrator!Darrien slipping into another universe, I was like, "He just blacked out and forces took him something something hospital."

I was waaaaaaay off lol. So far off I didn't even notice the significant cameos!!! (Though I did think, bet these guys come up later...)

As always, thanks to Reddit for this one. Maybe I should get an account there. I bet they'd find this Dorian Gray thing funny.

The new episode is just basically the cask of amontillado, i called it the moment he said there's a reinforced heavy locked soundproof basement. I mean srsly ever since reading the damn thing I've always been wary of being buried alive jesus christ. What makes it even scarier is that the other dude never broke eye contact. "You're what I could've become." "I'm all you could've been" just two identical looking dudes looking at each other as the other fell to his demise. UGH
