To everyone that maybe have assumed the alien was bad in this episode, the book confirms that the alien is actually just a very kind compassionate creature, they don’t trap ships or eat the crews, they comfort the people who actually get stuck there while they die and tries to let them go peacefully into death instead of screaming and kicking. So yeah! Nice alien, who would have guessed.
My favorite episode. It's the highest rated episode on IMDb, so I guess not just mine. The whole story is amazing. I would've loved a sequel or just a bit of explanation as to what is the creature that "helps lost souls" but the mystery makes it fascinating in its own way.
I think this is my favorite episode of the series too. I actually watched it when season 2 just came out. Apparently I missed this one and "Sonnie's Edge" when watching the first season! I like to think that "Gretta" was actually the first alien to get accidentally routed there. She is able to survive somehow as she is clearly a very advanced/evolved being herself. She actually helps other "lost souls" with their transition to a part of space that essentially a dead zone; is no way to get back "home" after being routed there. "Gretta" may use the ships' resources to survive, but mostly she realizes that living a life like that, each being the only member of it's species trapped an unfathomable distance in both space and time with limited resources is unsustainable. Thus she gives each of the "lost souls" the most pleasant possible death....
When thom finally wake up and saw the truth that was actually terrifies me ,but then i realized that the alien is kind, they makes illusion of happy things so they dont die in sadness
Ya'll talking about how much you loved this episode or Zima Blue need to read more Alistair Reynolds. While the man's characters could use some work, his stories are filled to the brim of mind bending plots and lovecraftian science fiction horrors like this that are all a morbid joy to read. Either way, I'm pleased he's finally getting a bit more mainstream recognition for his work thanks to Love, Death, and Robots. Hopefully we'll see more of his work adapted in future seasons because if there was any writer an anthology series like Love, Death, and Robots was made for, it is Alistair Reynolds.
Definitely. That game had a nice mind fuck in the plot too. Like who do I believe is the real me? The version that made January, or was it the one who made December, or is it the version who made October? Who am I?!?!
@@martinbudinsky8912 nope theres 2 Prey games... the second one is supposed to be a sequel but in reality it doesn't have anything to do with the original, so i would say it is a remake.
The problem is that the plot twist, despite both been about aliens is that in the game, is mindblowing because YOU are the alien all along. In the Aquila Rift the plot twist isn't even the simulation, is the fact that the alien is benevolent, the simulation is meant just to ease off reality for the guy. Everything in the simulation of Aquila rift is meant to explain to the guy, that reality isn't good as it looks, in the original story, the woman that they keep waking up isn't even alive, is just part of the simulation, the only thing that is real in the simulation os the alien and the captain... Also, theres hints all over pointing out that the creature is benevolent, one of the keys to understand this is the statue of virgin Mary that keep appearing all the time in the short.

The short story this episode is based on explains some of what the show leaves out, kinda wish they'd cut the sex scene for some of the development in the book but still an amazing episode.
Absolutely! Also the show tried to give it somewhat of an ambiguous ending which has it's own charm of course. The book answers some of the critical questions raised by the show.
Be as it may. Sex scenes in mediums create char devs in a short time span. A hasten bonding if you will. Imho, I concur to your point, but seeing how the entire show has limited timespans for each episode, the emotional binding, however "unneeded" as it may seem initially, between the two chars works just fine. The revelation that came after just makes you reflect on said intercouse and follows up on most viewers' shocked sentiments.
@@sushimuncher282 theres a problem tough, the real meaning of the story become just noise in the among the shocked viewer talks, the most important message is about universal love, and the sex scene kind takes the weight of this, wich is exactly what also makes the short more confused... Altough as Manah said, it makes it's own charm... To me both stories are complementary, this is also the reason why i think this story would fit better in a full lenght movie.

Thats is precisly the clue that the creature is reasonable, even if you don't belive in what it said, there still the inteligence behind not just a mindless beast.
What i find obvious is how nobody notice the statue of virgin Mary appearing so much in the screen, thats also is forshadowing, and a big one, is the key that reveal the big plot twist wich is that the creature is benevolent and is just trying to help.
@@ahzibania in the original story his name is ThoRN, they probably change the name just to simplify it. So this has nothing to do with an anagram. Theres more details, some literaly screaming on the screen, that explain the situation.
It's very difficult to separate vocal and instruments and keep it high quality unless the artist release the official instrumental version. Unfortunately, this song doesn't have that.

I would actually choose to live a fake-happy reality rather than die with an ugly truth.
This Song Is VERY CATCHY But It’s HAUNTINGLY TERRIFYING.
Ariel Malsi Real Totally agree😰🥰
The fact that this song somehow tells the entire story of the episode for you made it both awesome and terrifying at the same time
Man perfect for halo 2/3/4
The whole episode was amazing and the song is the real masterpiece. I felt bad for Thom.
My favorite episode.
It's the highest rated episode on IMDb, so I guess not just mine.

I wasn't aware it was based on a book.
I'm going to read that.
Thank you!

Whatttttt a book??? Excelente!!!!!
What is the title?
@@reynamoyer2379 "beyond the aquila rift" by alastair Reynolds
Proberly a extremely underrated series in whole the fact u got this gem of a song in a episode so perfectly crafted.
I care for all the lost souls that end up here.

Goosebumps... all the time.
They should make an long version of this!!!
Definitely, I don't usually agree with this, even more when a show get it right (in it's own way) but the story in the short is incomplete.
Are you talking about the song or the episode?
When thom finally wake up and saw the truth that was actually terrifies me ,but then i realized that the alien is kind, they makes illusion of happy things so they dont die in sadness
The statue of virgin Mary is the key to to understand the meaning of the story.

The whole episode is just like one game I played... The Prey... Amazing game with amazing story. Anyway great job on this video.
Definitely. That game had a nice mind fuck in the plot too. Like who do I believe is the real me? The version that made January, or was it the one who made December, or is it the version who made October? Who am I?!?!

I love " love , death and robots "
Yeah it's all a unique concept.
really wish they'd make another season
living in a illusion sounds like hell no matter if it looked like heaven id want to know the truth
Well you saw the truth
best ep and song imo
Nice vid, nicely done. Great version of this song & awesome episode.
CATCHY.
Is it ust me, or does this song seem to fit Greta more so than the episode itself?
Totally. The chorus is a perfect insight of Greta's thoughts/situation
Then the lie more beautiful than the truth..I choose the lies..
my fav episode
i wanna see a 2 hr movie on this short

it's so sad that alien have a passion about human, it's trying to help human. I bet it found out that itself very ugly for human to handle :/
I think she's just trying to do her best for every person she meets.
Guess it's a teaching experience? Never judge people by the looks, bc they can be incredible nice, even if we don't realize it
I wonder why didnt she let them go?
@@martin4452 i think they all just faint after see things XD she didn't hold them
@@SomParRaaz but if she cares abiut them why did she trap them in the first place?

Hello Tom
Hello Tomm....
Spooky yet awesome
Thats is precisly the clue that the creature is reasonable, even if you don't belive in what it said, there still the inteligence behind not just a mindless beast.
But did anyone noticed when Greta scratched his back the marks went away? Foreshadowing something was wrong
it pretty obvious , that was the first red flag tom noticed and caused him to question reality and also the camera was directly pointed at it xD
Druska I agree with you but there are people I know who watched it and didn’t catch it
@@wh6082 yeah fair , good to point out
What i find obvious is how nobody notice the statue of virgin Mary appearing so much in the screen, thats also is forshadowing, and a big one, is the key that reveal the big plot twist wich is that the creature is benevolent and is just trying to help.
Gretas neck too, gets an abrasion and it heals suddenly gone moments later. Believe it was quite a catalyst to his questions.

@@ahzibania in the original story his name is ThoRN, they probably change the name just to simplify it.
So this has nothing to do with an anagram.
