I’m surprised by the reveal. I faked myself out by thinking Vince was going to do a twist and subvert our expectations of traditional invasion tropes. Also pay close attention to what the plurbs said. They said they would not take stem cells from Carol’s body. However in the ice hotel flashback, Carol says she froze her eggs. The plurbs can’t lie but they can still wiggle through technicalities.

It’s also funny that Carol is, once again, the one catching up. The other remainders ask questions, talk, discuss, and actually engage with the plurb. Therefore they get info that Carol does not. Her personality loses once again.

I’m curious if Paraguay guy is actually immune. He seems like a shut-in. He hasn’t been physically close with any plurb that we have seen. He hasn’t touched anything they have touched. We know the way they spread is by exchanging fluids or aerosols. If he was never exposed to either, he would have never been infected. The plurbs didn’t even know he existed until after everyone else was turned. Them sending his mom in to get physically close was a tactic to infect him. Maybe we haven’t seen it but he could have killed a plurb who tried to get close at some point. I’m probably looking for a twist where there isn’t one.

The farming thing is weird. They can’t even harm plants by harvesting them? So they’re never going to mow the grass or cut back any overgrowth? The entire world will be The Last of Us because trimming a tree is seen as harming life? Also picking apples from a tree doesn’t harm it, that’s why they fall off the tree in the first place. It’s a reproductive thing. Why would they be unable to harvest fruit? Also they don’t want to do robotic farming because the plurbs would have to do labor? I’m going to need more exposition on this because it makes little sense.
