I can’t believe how far off the rails that Electric Dreams ep went. How unkind.
I guess this was their attempt at a San Junipero equivalent, we all know they were hurting after Black Mirror moved to Netflix and wanted something new but way to do pretty much the opposite of what made San Junipero so good and so well-received.

Right?! That scene was so great. The honesty of it, even with how upset she was, and then that last despairing need to confirm there was no chance. Which Kate didn’t provide! Lol.
I did like that Kate tried to be a mentor as much as she could be in the circumstances, given the secrecy and being the object of Rana’s affections, and that they covered Rana’s background being part of her reluctance in identifying as anything other than straight. I was similar to that, actually, thinking I wasn’t homophobic, even shipping f/f couples and being in their fandoms but not willing to consider myself as lesbian or bi.
I don’t know if she’d have dropped everything if she knew Kate felt the same, but I think it’d have opened up a whole new line of thinking for her. But if the answer’s no, then she’s going to write it off and try to move on. What’s the point in exploring this and causing so much heartbreak if it’s for nothing? But…if there’s even a chance. Which is why she got all dressed up and went off to interrogate Kate again.
The difference between:
and
is her thinking about it and realizing that even though she should move on, she doesn’t want to.

I want a Truth and Measure style post-HACF Cameron/Donna fic. ALL THE BEATS WERE THERE IN THE FINALE. Omigosh. I should have known. It’s so weird when you think that for bad things that had proven their awfulness, but in this case, so much of the season with them apart and being the actual slow burn for the series send-off. Not Cam and Joe but Donna and Cameron.
I should have trusted them to treat them right.
God, there were some moments in there when I really thought they were gonna go farther. It was just all about them. This show should be remembered well, it made such a bold move and stuck with it, removing the two men almost entirely from the finale.
Pleeease, fic writers, it could so easily be done from where they left it.
