Loic, one of the most catalytic parts of that show, was the old trucker lady who abandoned the social rating. And (spoiler alert!), how our Social Seeking Goddess, post-party meltdown and imprisoned, finally let loose with her pent up expletive deletives at the cell mate across the way. Their collective emotional release from the prison of social rank was palpable.

When you watch the episode from Season 1: “50,000,000 Credits”, you’ll see a similar late stage “f*ck it!” Experience from the lead. And how it both empowered, and imprisoned him.

Cory Doctorow is definitely onto something.
